BB5000 facing head, two single arm bearing mounts, mechanical axial feed, rotational
drive unit,and 120V electric drive motor with variable speed controller in Climax's
assembly shop repairing a large weldment. The face needed to be cut flat, the bore
opened up, and a new counter bore added for clearance of a part being assembled
through the weldment. Notice that the single arm bearing mounts are mounted at a
10-degree angle off of square from the bar. The Climax-patented spherical bearing
mounts ensure proper alignment and extremely fast setup time, and prevent the drive,
bearings and bar from binding up in an off-square setup.
