Flywheel Style Autofacer
The Flywheel Style Autofacer utilises the inertia generated during rapid spindle acceleration to open and close the cutting blade.
- Ideal for modern CNC machines with rapid acceleration and deceleration of the spindle.
- Cost-effective for low to medium production volumes and where the part thickness varies.
- Integral shear pin reduces tool breakage in the event of radial or axial overload.
Applications
- Rapid rotation of machine spindle opens cutter
- Simple to set up and program
- Ideally suited where part thickness varies
- Internal coolant from pilot Ø15.62mm
Simple to Set Up
Take a moment to explore the fascinating performance of the Steiner FlyWheel Style Autofacer.
The Autofacer back spot-facing tools allow features to be machined without the need to access the part from behind. The Torque Bar opens the cutter and then holds it in the open position during the cutting process No human intervention, fully automated processing and up to 80% reduction in process cycle times!
