What is a spindle router?

In the world of woodworking, the spindle router is an indispensable tool known for its versatility and accuracy. A spindle router is both a milling machine and the tool used in the milling machine. A spindle milling machine is a powerful tool used for removing material from a workpiece through rotary milling.

The heart of the spindle milling machine is the cutter, also known as a spindle cutter or milling head. The milling cutter used in a spindle milling machine is a cutting tool that rotates at high speed to shear material from the workpiece. The spindle cutter can be used for a variety of operations such as slotting, ironing or rounding wood, profiling edges, making panels, manufacturing furniture doors and producing complex three-dimensional surfaces.

Benefits of spindle milling

The use of spindle milling offers several advantages over other machining methods, including:

• High Accuracy: The controlled movement of the spindle and milling head allows milling heads to deliver highly accurate results, even with complex shapes and tight tolerances.
• Efficiency: Spindle milling heads are capable of quickly removing large amounts of material, reducing production time and increasing efficiency.
• Versatility: With the right tools and settings, spindle cutters can machine a wide range of materials such as softwood, hardwood and sheet metal.

A large part of the milling heads in our range are milling heads with changeable knives. The cutting edges of the milling cutter heads are made of carbide (HM) or diamond (DP) and ensure that any joint or finish is easily made using a milling machine.

Spindle milling cutters for milling tables and CNC machines

When ordering a spindle router or milling head, it is important that you pay close attention to the MEC and MAN safety standards. If you want to mount a milling head on a CNC machine, you must buy a MEC milling head, MEC stands for mechanical. Would you like to mount a milling head in a universal milling table, also called a toupie or topie? Then you use a MAN milling head. MAN stands for manual. For all router heads and spindle milling cutters in our webshop, the product images show by means of an icon whether the milling cutter is suitable for manual feed (MAN) or for mechanical feed (MEC).
