What is an angle header?
The angle head is a commonly used machine tool accessory. After the machine tool is installed with the angle head, the tool output centerline can form a specific angle with the machine tool spindle centerline to process the workpiece. It is widely used in
In various fields of mechanical processing such as energy, aviation, automobiles, and molds, it can complete processing procedures such as milling, drilling, tapping, and boring pins. Using the angle head can greatly increase its processing range and adaptability without changing the structure of the machine tool, realize vertical-horizontal conversion five-sided processing and specific-angle inclined-plane processing, and make some processing that is difficult to complete by traditional methods such as deep cavity in a narrow space The processing can be realized, and at the same time, it can reduce the repeated clamping of the workpiece, and improve the processing accuracy and efficiency. picture
What types of machine tools are angle heads suitable for?
The angle head is mainly used on machining centers, boring and milling machines, vertical lathes and other machine tools. The angle head of the machining center can be placed in the tool magazine, and can automatically change tools between the tool magazine and the machine tool spindle, just like a machine tool with complex and special functions. Standard tool holders; medium and heavy-duty angle heads need to have greater rigidity and torque, which are suitable for heavy cutting processing requirements, and are generally rigidly connected by flanges or automatic head-changing mechanisms.

For angle head applications
1. Grooving and drilling on the inner wall of the pipe or in a narrow space and the inner wall of the hole;
2. Precision workpieces are fixed at one time, and when multiple surfaces need to be processed;
3. When processing at any angle relative to the datum plane;
4. The processing is kept at a special angle for profiling milling, such as ball end milling;
5. When the hole in the hole, the milling head or other tools cannot penetrate into the hole to process the small hole;
6. Inclined holes, inclined grooves, etc. that cannot be processed by the machining center, such as the internal holes of the engine and the box shell;
7. One-time clamping and multi-face processing of large workpieces;
8. Other special working conditions;
