The fork milling head has the ability to simultaneously position the cutter in space by controlling the A-axis and the C-axis at the same time. By combining the movements of the two axes, the fork milling head can position the cutter in any desired position in space, allowing complex and precise cuts on the workpiece. This type of milling head is particularly suitable for the production of complex tools and shapes where high precision and flexibility are required.

Robust heavy-duty fork head with 110°/360° motion, ±5″/±2″ accuracy and 4,000/5,000 Nm clamping – perfect for demanding roughing and finishing in aerospace and heavy industries.
Ultra-rigid heavy-duty head with 110°/360° motion, ±2.5″/±2″ accuracy and 7,500/7,500 Nm clamping torque – engineered for maximum torque and precision in large-part machining and tough materials.
The largest CYMILL fork-type head, built for extreme cutting forces: rated/peak torque 4,380/7,500 Nm (C-axis) and 7,220/13,400 Nm (A-axis), with integrated 76 kW CYSPEED spindle (up to 1,200 Nm with i = 3 planetary gear).
The universal milling head allows precise machining of workpieces thanks to its compact design and its ability to reach both the lowest horizontal and the highest vertical machining space. It is ideal for horizontal machine tools in combination with a rotary table system and offers the best power density on the market. A high-torque mechanical transmission spindle handles even hard-to-cut materials.
Compact universal milling head with high torque, hydraulic clamping, ±180°/±360° rotation and ±2″ accuracy – for dynamic 5-axis machining in tight spaces.
Heavy-duty version of the 45° universal head with high torque, hydraulic clamping, ±190° rotation and ±2″ accuracy – for dynamic 5-axis machining under higher loads.
Double-45° universal milling head with high torque, hydraulic clamping, ±190°/±360° rotation and ±2″ accuracy – maximum flexibility for 5-axis machining in tight spaces.
Heavy-duty double-45° head with high torque, hydraulic clamping, ±190°/±360° rotation and ±2″ accuracy – for demanding 5-axis machining with maximum reach.
Large universal milling head with high torque, hydraulic clamping, ±180° rotation and ±2″ accuracy – power density for large-part 5-axis machining.
At the heart of every CYMILL milling head works a CYSPEED motor spindle, developed and manufactured in-house by CYTEC. The modular spindle kit covers 13 to 115 kW rated power (S1), rated torques up to 700 Nm – up to 1,200 Nm with planetary gear – and speeds up to 24,000 rpm, with HSK-A63, HSK-A100, SK50 and C8 tool interfaces. This in-house spindle development is a key reason for the precision and reliability of CYMILL heads.
Motor Spindle DataTorqueTec is CYTEC's German powerhouse for torque motor development and production. With over a quarter-century of experience and close collaborations with universities and research institutions, TorqueTec has achieved remarkable strides in power density and reduced heat loss. The complete production depth – from engineering and manufacturing to assembly and quality control – is conducted in-house, delivering the direct drives that give CYMILL heads their dynamics and precision.
