VBHU-211 Universal Automatic Facing and Boring Head (SK‑40, M16x2.0) by Vertex

The VBHU-211 is a universal, automatic facing and boring head designed for flexible workshop use, enabling precise machining across a broad diameter range.

• Automatic operation for efficient machining
• Suitable for Ø5–Ø250 mm and Ø110 mm vertical drilling
• SK-40 collet compatibility
• M16x2.0 thread connection for secure mounting

Precision for variable diameters that improves throughput

The attachment delivers consistent precision across a broad working range, handling diameters from Ø5–Ø250 mm and providing a dedicated Ø110 mm option for vertical drilling applications. Its design reduces re‑alignment time between operations, which supports higher machine utilisation and fewer interruptions. By translating the head’s mechanical accuracy into repeatable face and bore finishes, the assembly minimises rework and keeps cycle times predictable for batch and single‑piece production.

Secure mounting and quick changeovers cut setup time

Compatibility with the SK‑40 collet system and the M16x2.0 thread connection ensures a firm, concentric interface with most vertical and horizontal machining spindles. The compact mass of 5.6 kg simplifies handling while preserving rigidity during cutting. Explained for non‑specialists: SK‑40 denotes the taper/collet standard used for secure tool mounting, while the M16x2.0 thread provides the axial lock; together they create a reliable mechanical link that reduces run‑out and shortens the time between tool changes.

Automatic functionality that supports continuous production

The automatic character of the head enables smooth adjustments during machining, reducing the need for manual intervention. This capacity translates into a rational productivity gain: fewer stoppages, faster changeovers and a more consistent quality level across repeated workpieces. The design emphasises operational reliability and process stability, making it suitable where continuous throughput and predictable finishing are priorities.

Easy integration into existing setups and straightforward handling

The universal layout allows straightforward integration into diverse machining environments without complex retrofitting. The unit’s concise specification and standardised interfaces mean straightforward compatibility checks during planning. For procurement and production teams this reduces integration risk and shortens lead times for commissioning. The attachment’s practical form factor also eases storage and transport within the workshop, supporting a tidy, efficient workplace.
