Machining and workholding Universal 5 Axis Vise Positive high strength clamping close to the work-piece Obstruction free 5-axis machining
Obstruction free 5-side machining More and more companies are investing in 5 axis machining centres to enable increasingly challenging requirements for more complex work-pieces, shorter run times and smaller batch sizes to be satisfied. Growing importance therefore attaches to the workholding method for which new solutions must be found. The optimal solution for the following key requirements unrestricted all-around access to the work-piece a optimum above the table high clamping force 3 kn / 77 lb b, secure clamping by grip jaws with pull-down force c low clamping depth c suitability for raw or premachined, cubical, round or odd shaped parts d un-parallel parts are easily clamped e variable clamping range, - > mm (, - > ) minimum weight easy loading flexibility operational from two sides With a clamping depth of just or 8 mm [.57 or.35 ] and a freely selectable of, 5, 5 and 75 mm [3.93,.9, 5.9, 6.89 ] (page ) above the table, machining is done in the best possible position for machine tool and work-piece. This creates the possibility of working with the shortest and most stable tools. Cube, round and odd shaped work-pieces can be clamped to fit their shape easily with the grip jaws (page ) with no need for previous embossing! Additionally pre-machined work-pieces can be clamped accurately using machinable soft jaws (page ) and support-plates (page 3). The clamping range (page ) is limited only by the size of the machine table. 5 3 8 mm mm 3
The clamping unit can be mounted directly on T-slot (page 6) or grid machine tables (page 7), grid-plates, pallets or on a base plate (page 5). This base plate includes a number of bores that permit a direct link to the zero point clamping system (vb catalog 7.5) as well as to most T-slot or grid machine tables. The clamping force is generated right below the clamping surface. This completely prevents spreading of the clamping jaws, as can happen if conventional high clamping jaws are used on bed rails with a low mounted spindle. parallel clamping conventional opens under working strain Clamping force no flare out under tension Clamping force 3
