Abstract
A working head for a cutting machine having a frame, and a cutting disc assembly supported by the frame. The cutting disc assembly having a cutting disc and a first driver rotatably moving the cutting disc around an axis of rotation of the cutting disc. A milling cutter assembly is supported by the frame. The milling cutter assembly has a milling cutter and a second driver that rotatably moves the cutting disc around an axis of rotation of the cutter.
Claims8
A working head for a cutting machine, the working head comprising:
- a frame;
- a cutting disc assembly supported by said frame, said cutting disc assembly having a cutting disc and a first drive, the first drive being cooperative with the cutting disc so as to rotate the cutting disc around an axis of rotation of the cutting disc;
- a milling cutter assembly supported by said frame, said milling cutter assembly having a milling cutter and a second drive, the second drive being cooperative with the milling cutter so as to rotate the milling cutter around an axis of rotation of the milling cutter, said milling cutter assembly slidably mounted relative to said frame such that said milling cutter assembly is slidable along a sliding axis parallel to the axis of rotation of the milling cutter;
- a guide connected to said frame;
- a slide connected to said milling cutter assembly, said slide being slidably mounted on said guide so as to slide along the sliding axis;
- and
- at least one actuator connected to said frame and to said slide so as to selectively move said slide, wherein the first drive has a casing rotatably mounted to said frame so as to rotate around a first tilt axis so as to vary an angle of inclination of the cutting disc, wherein said guide is rotatably mounted on said frame such that said guide is rotatable about a second tilt axis so as to vary an inclination of the axis of rotation of said milling cutter, wherein the second tilt axis coincides with the first tilt axis.
