Machine-specific bonnets enable a single head to be used across a variety of boring mill brands. The bonnet bolts to a mill’s outer spindle (the outer spindle provides the rotation for the cutter). The contouring head quickly installs into the bonnet and is secured via locking cam pins. Other ZX heads, including modular boring tools and valve seat tools, can also be installed on a mill’s bonnet.
