🔍 Deep Dive: Angular Heads with Automatic Tool Change on WFL MILLTURN Machines
When it comes to the complete machining of highly complex workpieces, angular heads on WFL MILLTURN machines open up additional machining possibilities—efficiently, precisely, and with process reliability.
Whether it’s cross holes, angled holes, internal machining, or milling hard-to-reach contours: In combination with simultaneous 5-axis machining, angular heads enable the production of demanding components in a single clamping. This reduces set-up times, increases productivity, and simultaneously meets the highest quality requirements.
💡 WFL prism tools for milling operations offer decisive advantages:
✔ Driven tools for axial applications such as milling, thread cutting, or deburring
✔ Fully automatic tool change – even for large and heavy tools
✔ Steel attachment heads for maximum stability and absorption of high cutting forces
✔ Customized designs for maximum time savings and optimal process stability
✔ Modular WFL standard range for maximum flexibility
✔ Numerous industry-specific, field-proven solutions available
✔ Protection of driven tools through control-side limitation of the maximum permissible torque
The result: maximum flexibility in applications combined with high process reliability and productivity.
