AGU Series: Adjustable Spindle

Adjustable Spindle Angle Heads

AGU Angle Heads, with an adjustable spindle (1° - 90°, 1° increments), combine vertical and horizontal operations on one machine. They increase productivity by easily changing the angle of the cutter while utilizing the original workpiece setup. This improves overall accuracy and eliminates the potential for error created by multiple setups. BIG-PLUS is standard for all CAT & BT versions, ensuring rigidity and accurate automatic tool changes.

Loosen all clamping screws and then manually slide the spindle housing close to the target angle.

For example, when setting at 42°, align the arrow mark on the spindle housing with the 42° mark engraved on the head within 1°.

Tighten the angle setting screw marked 2°. The spindle housing is now fixed at the exact target angle.

Tighten all clamping screws and then loosen the Angle setting screw.
