Description and Features

Angle Head ZW Series: 90° Offset Type for Specialized Machining

The AVASTEC Angle Head ZW Series provides a highly specialized solution for complex CNC machining tasks. Designed as a 90° fixed angle head, this series features a unique offset (eccentric) mechanism. This offset type construction shifts the cutting tool away from the main spindle axis, enabling precise milling, drilling, and tapping operations in confined spaces, deep bores, or specific eccentric positions that standard inline angle heads cannot easily reach.

Advantages of the Offset Axis Design

By utilizing this offset geometry, the ZW Series minimizes the need for special fixtures, custom extended tooling, or multiple workpiece setups. The robust 90-degree fixed configuration ensures maximum structural rigidity, transferring high torque efficiently to the cutting edge without compromising dimensional accuracy.

  • Offset (Eccentric) Capability: Easily accesses internal cavities and difficult-to-reach areas by operating off the central spindle axis.
  • 90° Fixed Angle Stability: Delivers high mechanical stability, vibration resistance, and repeatable accuracy for heavy-duty metal removal.
  • Comprehensive Taper Options: Available in a wide range of standard spindle interfaces including SK (SK40/SK50), BT (BT40/BT50), BBT (BBT40/BBT50), and HSK (HSK63/HSK100) to fit various CNC centers.

Reliability in Continuous Production

Manufactured with high-precision gears, optimized internal cooling capabilities, and heavy-duty bearings, the AVASTEC ZW Series offset angle heads maintain excellent runout accuracy. Integrating these offset heads into your production line instantly increases your horizontal and eccentric machining capabilities without the need for expensive machine tool upgrades.
