Lean.
Dynamic.
Strong.
The VH20 milling head sets new standards. Developed to realize the idea of a universally applicable portal milling machine for volume cutting with different working ranges in all axes, the VH20 combines strong torques with high rotation speeds in the A and C axes up to 360°/s. In combination with above-average accuracy of the entire machine concept, this results in a high surface quality. The VH20 milling head has a symmetrical design and a compact design that tapers downwards, giving it a low interference contour.
The fork head is designed in monobloc versions made of cast iron. This design achieves maximum temperature stability and has integrated vibration and vibration damping, which ensures even more precise results during the milling process.
Suitable Milling Machines

Excellent workload for various tasks
The FZ30 and FZ35 portal milling machines meet industry-specific requirements from many areas, for example in model and mould making for machining models, moulds, injection moulding and sheet metal forming tools in many variants, in å construction for trimming trim parts, stretch moulding parts, rudders and special applications in acrylic glass as well as in boat and shipbuilding, for the manufacture of laminating moulds or deck structures.
