What is an CNC aggregate?
An angular aggregate, or angle head, supports the functionality of a CNC machine and acts as an extended arm of the motor spindle.
Combining an electric motor, a tool interface, and a tool clamping system, the motor spindle is the heart of the CNC machine. The motor spindle clamps the tools and aggregates and supplies the rotational speed and torque for machining.
The C-axis is a huge gain for the wood industry.
With it, the aggregate can use the clamped-in tools with different approach angles. Rotations about the Z-axis of the machine are
simple and time-saving because the C-axis, equipped with a servomotor, gearing, and a torque support ring, can rotate the aggregate by 360 degrees.
The torque arm is the part that secures the aggregate against spinning. It prevents the static parts from rotating during machining.
It also reduces vibrations, supports the aggregate against acting machining forces, and can transmit cooling media or control signals in the form of compressed air. The locating
pins specified by the machine manufacturer are built into the torque arm of the aggregate and engage in the machine’s antirotation torque support ring, stop block, or C-axis.

An angular aggregate, or angle head, supports the functionality of a CNC machine and acts as an extended arm of the motor spindle.
Aggregates extend the machine-side machining capabilities of 3-, 4-, and 5-axis machines. Tools can work horizontally or at any angle, even when space is limited.
Use of aggregates offers cutting, grinding, probing, indenting, doweling, gluing, and many other processing methods in addition to “rotating” machining processes such as routing, drilling, and sawing, ...
