Line of Alberti Angle Heads



Koma Precision, Inc. has introduced the new Index Line angle heads from Alberti.

With the aim of meeting the need of performing machining operations in several directions, Alberti has developed a combined system made by a swiveling module and a standard angle head. "This angle head is the first with the capability to index output at virtually any angle," said a company spokesperson.

The main characteristic of the system is the possibility of rotating and then positioning the head automatically, using the controlled axis of the machine spindle. The technology inside the module allows the anchoring of the head with the machine spindle to achieve an automatic position in the machining direction and operate like a standard angle head using the spindle rotation.

The system is operated by 6-bar compressed air through the stop pin or by a closed hydraulic circuit controlled by a piston. The entire system can be automatically exchanged by the tool changer and can mount heads with collet capacity up to a diameter of 10 mm. Now it is possible to use a single head for multiple operations, to avoid additional workpiece set-ups or tool changes and to carry out various machining processes with a single solution.
