The company also offers the FFG Werke Modul H200 vertical hobbing machine designed for dry cutting applications for small automotive applications, with the option of using oil or emulsion. According to the company, chips are cleanly conveyed from the work area by means of a chute, which is designed to prevent any buildup. The hob head is housed within the tool column, which is tightly fastened to the sturdy machine bed. The tailstock is located on the tool column above the hob head, designed to leave the work area free for workpiece loading and unloading operations.
