Coolant Driven and Live Lathe Angle Heads. A Better Way
Proliferation in the use of high pressure coolant systems as a machining aid fostered the development of Titespot® Coolant Driven Right Angle Drill Heads, Spindle Speeders, and Keycutters by Eltool Corporation. Compared to spindle driven heads, Titespot® angle drill heads have two important cost-savings advantages: they are indexable, allowing multi-position machining with one angle head and set-up, and their compact profile allows machining in bores and cavities not accessible to mechanical heads. Eltool Angle Heads can machine in bores down to 5/8″16mm in diameter and develop up to 4 Horsepower3KW.
More recently, when the need to machine internally on lathes not equipped with high pressure coolant became apparent, we adapted our compact angle heads to VDI, BMT, and other types of live tool modules. Now, what were traditionally secondary I.D. machining operations such as slotting, keyway cutting, deburring, and oil grooving can be integrated with turning operations.
Since 1995, Titespot® machining and turning center accessories have been the proven solution to a variety of machining problems.

Modular Live Tooling
Our standard Live Tool Angle Heads fit all popular lathe models, and machine in bores down to 5/8″ in diameter. Now, your secondary milling, slotting, and grooving applications can be integrated into your turning operations. Titespot Angle Heads can be removed and replaced with ER-16 and ER-25 tool holders for traditional live tool milling operations. This reduces the costs and setup time involved with swapping the drive with commodity style live tool holders. Speeders are available and are capable of over 20,000 RPM on most machines.
What Our Customers Say
“The slim angle head design has allowed us to reduce operations and idle time by incorporating cross holes at the cnc operation rather than a detail or jig operation outside of the cnc program. Thanks to the reduced overall operations and cycle time we have realized a significant increase in machine capacity.”
David Smith, Lead Engineer, Precise Machining and Mfg.
“The crew at Eltool have been my savior in the angle head world, great product, many options, excellent durability, great service turn around. One of the few companies left that make and service a product and care about that product.”
John Biles, Manufacturing Engineer, Leclaire Mfg. Co.
