Lightweight Angle Heads Enhance Versatility and Reduce Machining Time
BIG KAISER announces two new lightweight angle heads: a small bore version suitable for tools with diameter between 0.25mm and 6mm, and another optimized for high torque tapping.
These new models complement the existing device that is tailored for general machining applications.
Adding a BIG KAISER angle head allows users to extend their existing machine’s capabilities without the cost of new equipment. These heads facilitate vertical, horizontal, and angular operations without the need to reposition the workpiece, thus increasing accuracy and productivity. This enhancement not only saves machining time but also accelerates production workflows.
Weighing less than 2kg, the new angle heads are part of BIG KAISER’s compact series. Their reduced weight makes them compatible with the automatic tool changers (ATC) of small, dynamic machines, such as those from Fanuc and Brother, thereby making the machines even more versatile. The lighter weight also enables the ATC to operate more swiftly, reducing tool change times and shortening overall cycle times—resulting in markedly enhanced productivity.
