VBHU-213 Universal facing and boring head, automatic (Vertex)

A versatile automatic VBHU-213 universal facing and boring head for precision machining and vertical drilling applications.

• Automatic operation for consistent cut
• Compatible with BT-50 collets
• Thread M24x3.0P for secure mounting
• Suitable for Ø5–Ø250 mm and Ø110 mm drilling

Consistent machining through automatic control

The automatic feed mechanism of this universal boring head ensures repeatable facing and boring cycles, reducing setup variation and manual trimming. By maintaining a steady feed, the unit delivers a uniform surface finish and helps shorten cycle times. For workshops aiming to increase throughput without sacrificing accuracy, the combination of automatic operation and a well-balanced cutter head translates into fewer reworks and predictable production runs.

Wide diameter range for flexible part programmes

Designed to cover a broad working scope, the head accommodates diameters from Ø5–Ø250 mm, with additional capability for Ø110 mm in vertical drilling scenarios. This large span minimises tool changes across varying workpieces and supports mixed-batch production. The versatility of the unit makes it suitable for operations that require both small-diameter finishing and medium-size boring, enabling efficient use of machine time and tooling resources.

Secure integration with existing toolholders and machines

Compatibility with BT-50 collets and the M24x3.0P thread provides secure and repeatable mounting, simplifying retrofits into standard machining centres. The collet interface is an industry-established system that facilitates quick tool exchanges while maintaining concentricity. Clear specification of the mounting thread and collet type assists in planning spindle adaptors or toolholder investments and reduces uncertainty during integration into existing setups.

Robust design for stable performance and serviceability

Constructed for industrial use, the head offers a solid feel and balanced mass for vibration damping in high-precision tasks. The unit’s weight contributes to stability during cutting, supporting consistent tolerances and improved surface quality. Routine inspection points are straightforward, enabling maintenance teams to keep the head in optimal condition with minimal downtime. The practical design supports long production runs and contributes to dependable shop-floor performance.
