The compact size Milling Head Series S8 fork version is designed for machining of small size workpieces.
Because of its space saving dimensions it is well suited for milling tasks in space reduced working environments or for filigree workpieces.
Application areas: 5-axis machining for prototyping and modelling, but also in general tool machining (milling, drilling, grinding etc.)
Patented dynamic direct drives in all axes (CyTec-development)
Highly precise CyTec-axial-/radial bearings
Prepared for different control systems (Siemens, Heidenhain, Fagor, NUM)
Can be equipped with motor spindles with a power range of 10 up to 20 kW
Options:
Slender or compact C-axis, selectable depending on the installation situation
C-axis with absolute angular measuring system
Integrated suction unit
Technical specifications for Fork Milling Head S8
For C-axis positioning a space-saving incremental value measuring system with a very high resolution is used.

C-Axis & A-Axis
Angular measuring systems
For C-axis positioning a space-saving incremental value measuring system with a very high resolution is used, consisting of a 0,35 mm thin measuring tape ring and an inductively operating scanning head incl. evaluation electronics or as an option an absolute value measuring system with a measuring accuracy of ± 2“.
For A-axis positioning an absolute value measuring system is used whose hollow shaft is connected directly to the centring of the A-axis (swivel housing).
Integrated suction unit, e. g. for machining of glass fibre reinforced materials.
Manual tool clamping system (HSK 63)
Tool interface HSK 50
Minimal quantities of lubricant
