VBHU-206 Universal facing and boring head – automatic, NT-30, Ø5–Ø250 mm

The VBHU-206 Universal facing and boring head is an automatic attachment designed for precision facing and internal boring on milling machines and vertical drilling centres, providing adaptable diametral control and reliable clamping for varied workshop tasks

• Automatic adjustment for consistent finishing
• Wide clamping range Ø5–Ø250 mm
• NT-30 collet compatibility for precision
• M12x1.75P mounting thread

Faster, more consistent finishing for serial work

The automatic regulation of cutting depth and feed contributes to repeatable surface quality across batches, reducing manual intervention and setup time. Where manual heads need continual adjustment, this unit keeps correction to a minimum, which benefits throughput and reduces scrap rates. The mechanism is engineered to maintain concentricity during facing and internal boring operations, so operators obtain uniform results without constant rechecking. This emphasis on operational efficiency addresses common production bottlenecks by enabling steady cycle times and predictable outputs.

One head for a wide spectrum of diameters

With an effective working envelope spanning Ø5–Ø250 mm and a dedicated Ø110 mm diameter option for vertical drilling, the head adapts to a broad range of component sizes. The large clamping range minimises the need for multiple tooling changes in shops processing mixed runs, which saves time and simplifies tooling logistics. Technical users benefit from clear diametral indexing and stable tool presentation, which supports precise material removal even on complex parts. The adaptability makes the head suitable for both individual repairs and repeated production tasks.

Secure tool holding and simple mounting for minimal runout

Compatibility with NT-30 collets ensures secure clamping of cutters and boring bars, reducing vibration and runout for improved hole geometry. The M12x1.75P mounting thread provides a standardised interface for fast installation on compatible machine spindles. Together these features deliver a consistent tool-to-work relationship, which is critical for maintaining tolerances and extending cutter life. The design targets dependable concentricity and ease of maintenance, helping workshops preserve tool accuracy across long production shifts.

Designed for workshop reliability and straightforward integration

Constructed to integrate into existing setups, the head balances robustness with manageable mass for handling and alignment—total mass: 6 kg—so installers can mount and position the unit without specialised lifting equipment. The build and feature set favour everyday industrial use: repeatable settings, quick collet changes and a compact footprint that fits standard tool holders. Backed by Vertex's manufacturing experience and Metav Werkzeuge’s supply chain, the component is well suited to small and medium-sized enterprises seeking reliable, precision tooling that simplifies process planning and reduces stoppages.
