A facing head as well as a method for inserting a tool into and/or removing a tool from a tool holder device of the facing head. The facing head has a spindle coupling device for exchangeably coupling with a spindle chuck of a working spindle of a machine tool. The facing head has a housing body at which or in which a facing slide is moveably supported in a guided manner. The facing slide supports the tool holder device. The tool holder device is hydraulically controllable. A hydraulic coupling that is mechanically and hydraulically coupled with an associated hydraulic control coupling of the housing body in a tool change position of the facing slide. Remote from the tool change position, the mechanical and hydraulic connection between the hydraulic coupling and the associated hydraulic control coupling is interrupted. In the tool change position a switching of the tool holder device between a hold condition holding the tool and a release condition releasing the tool can be carried out by a respective pressurization with hydraulic pressure.

In a tool attachment having an attachment housing on which a fastening interface is situated for fastening to an handheld machine tool, the fastening interface having an angular position setting unit for setting a specified angular position of the tool attachment on the handheld machine tool, and being equipped with a locking unit which, in a locked state, locks the tool attachment for operation on the handheld machine tool in the specified angular position, and, in the unlocked state, makes possible drawing the tool attachment away from the handheld machine tool, the angular position setting unit is operable in the locked state of the locking unit, to enable a change in the specified angular position.

An internal clamping arrangement having a base with a clamping mandrel that extends in a main extent direction and has a guide face and at least two clamping sleeves. The clamping sleeves are displaceable in the main extent direction and are pushed onto the guide face of the clamping mandrel from the direction of a distal end of the clamping mandrel. The clamping sleeves have a clamping portion which can be expanded by displacement, and the outside of which has a clamping face for a respective one of the workpieces. The internal clamping arrangement has at least three piston chambers which act between the base and the at least two clamping sleeves and between the clamping sleeves.

A device for the precise angular positioning of tool-holders includes a front part, a rear part, and a plug cooperating with a pair of pins arranged orthogonally relative to the plug. A first portion of the plug is inserted in a blind hole formed in the front part and a second portion of the plug is inserted in a corresponding blind hole formed in a front area defining a plate on the rear part of the tool-holder. The plate of the rear part has an upper surface in which a pair of bored holes is formed having equal diameters and depths. The bored holes extend vertically in the plate and orthogonally relative to the plug. A pin is rotatably inserted in each of the pair of bored holes to selectively rotate the plug in a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction to orientate the front part relative to the rear part.

A precision securing device is disclosed that comprises a central longitudinal hole to receive a shaft from a first end of the device, a gripping portion around the central hole to fixedly secure an upper part of the shaft, and an adjustment portion around the central hole adjacent the first end. The adjustment portion has a number of lateral adjustment holes opening into the central hole. Each adjustment hole is threaded to receive an adjustment screw into the central hole to contact a lower part of the shaft in the central hole. A first diameter of the central hole at the adjustment portion is larger than a second diameter at the gripping portion. Runout of the shaft is adjustable by adjusting depth of entry of each screw to displace the lower part of the shaft when the upper part has been fixedly secured in the gripping portion.

A device for the precise angular positioning of tool-holders suitable for CNC machines, in particular tool-holders (10) motorised or non-motorised, comprising a front part (12) and an opposite rear part (14) and suitable to perform angular machining on multi-spindle and single-spindle CNC lathes, on transfer machines, milling centres and machine tools which perform machining by chip removal, comprises a plug (18) cooperating with a pair of pins (28), (30) arranged orthogonally relative to said plug and adjustable in rotation. Each of the pins (28), (30) comprises an offset cylindrical central portion (32), forming a cam which, by rotating, interacts with said pins to achieve said precise angular positioning of the tool-holders (10).

Provided is a tool bracket in which a spindle body is inserted and the spindle body can be smoothly tilted. The tool bracket includes a housing including a cylinder chamber extending along a cylinder axis; a tilting body having a tilt axis configured to tilt about a tilt center, the tilting body to which a spindle body is attachable, the tilting body tiltable with respect to the cylinder axis; a rotation stopper member extending in a radial direction from the tilt axis, the rotation stopper member disposed in the tilting body; and a receiving groove extending along the cylinder axis, the receiving groove arranged in the housing.

A cutter holder has a body, a collet fastening unit, a collet, a cutter, multiple concentricity adjusting units, and multiple straightness adjusting units. The collet fastening unit is assembled on the body. The collet is assembled on the collet fastening unit. The cutter is inserted into the collet. The body has a fastening flange which has multiple concentricity adjusting holes. The multiple concentricity adjusting units are respectively screwed in the multiple concentricity adjusting holes and abut against the collet fastening unit to correct the error of concentricity between the cutter and the body. The collet fastening unit has an assembling flange which has multiple straightness adjusting holes. The multiple straightness adjusting units are respectively screwed in the multiple straightness adjusting holes and abut against the body to correct the error of straightness between the body and the cutter.
