D'andrea boring/facing head.
« on: August 29, 2022, 01:30:11 PM »
Hi . Recently aquired a D'andrea TA120 boring/ facing head with a 40 taper spindle mounting. As I have a R8 spindle in mill, would like to aquire a suitable R8 arbor to fit.  It has a fairly standard 22mm bore to accept the arbor, but has a keyway in the 22mm shank to drive rather than the two drive dogs as used with face mills etc. Retained with a 10mm screw into female thread within the shank. Anyone know where I might aquire such an item, or do you have one you could sell to me ?

Thankyou Andrew. Unfortunately it is now out of stock, anyway  I am saving my wheelbarrow full of dollar bills to pay the electric bill this winter.  BTW the cnc plasma is now working very well.
