·         for tools and processing units (aggregates) with HSK-63F interface

·         plate-type tool changer for up to 14 tool/unit places

·         maximum rotating tool weight of 6 kg (13.23 lbs.) including tool holder

·         maximum processing unit weight of 10 kg (22 lbs.)

·         maximum total weight of all equipment is 70 kg (154 lbs.) distributed evenly

·         following tool combinations are possible:

o   14 x maximum diameter of 130 mm (5-1/8") or

o   7 x maximum diameter of 180 mm (7-3/32") and
7 x maximum diameter of 70 mm (2-3/4")

·         maximum tool diameter for sanding tools is 200 mm (7-7/8")

·         with Drive 5C/+:  saw blade of 350 mm diameter and "A" dimension of 50 mm can be interchanged into the tool changer.

Saw Blade D=350 mm with Tool Chuck for Drive 5C/5C+

Homag Unit #7942       (1 of)

·         special use HSK-63F tool chuck with "A" dimension = 50 mm for insertion into the Drive 5C/5C+spindle

·         tool arbor D=30 mm

·         reference circle diameter 90 mm, M5 8 x 45º

·         design of the chuck appropriate for clamping the saw blade alternately with washer disk for optimum concentricity or with countersunk head screws for miter cuts.

16-Spindle Boring Head: 12 Vert., 4 Horiz., 0º/90º Saw

Homag Unit #7472       (1 of)

twelve (12) spindles with up to a maximum of 35 mm (1-3/8") hole;

·         with 4 Horizontal Boring Spindles with Grooving Saw - 0°/90° Indexing

o   for horizontal drilling in four (4) directions (X+, X-, Y+, and Y-)

o   direction of rotation:  three (3) left-hand, one (1) right-hand

o   one (1) boring spindle prepared for a grooving saw blade for grooving in X- and Y-directions
