Cutter-block characteristics:
The CASTOR-Finish spiral cutter head is supplied by the Swiss tooling company OERTLI.
Designed to produce a perfectly planed finish, the cutter head uses Tungsten Carbide tipped inserts mounted in an aluminum alloy block. The spiral orientation gives a perfect cut without marking as each knife overlaps, and has a special curve to its edge. To eliminate the tendency for parts to be driven sideways while cutting, the spiral directions are alternated.

The cutterhead is easily accessed to rotate the inserts.
 
Tooling efficiency:
Each knife insert measures 15 x 15 x 12.5 mm, and has four cutting edges. Knives can be rotated or changed selectively and use a special reference marks to archieve optimum utilisation.
A Service Cart is provided too.

 

The Bütfering Planer Head is available for all machine lines.
