The eight-position automatic head is used for automatic indexing of cutting and auxiliary tools installed in a tool disk with a horizontal axis of rotation. The eight-position automatic head is designed to equip lathes with various numerical control systems.
MAIN TECHNICAL DATA
The automatic eight-position head has a one-sided counterclockwise direction of rotation of the tool disk if you look at the end of the disk.
The maximum imbalance is 2 kg·m.
The maximum weight of cutting and auxiliary tools must not exceed 45 kg. When using less than 8 positions, the toolholders must be installed evenly over the entire head disk (to reduce imbalance and wear of the moving part of the head).
The frequency of head cycles should be no more than 60 cycles per hour. Cycle is a moving from position to position
