TOPlus / SPANNTOP chuck made of carbon fiber
Your benefit
- Power-operated, lightweight clamping devices for better productivity and more economical for the series production
- As much as 70 % lighter than the standard steel version, thus protecting the machine components
- Better machine dynamics due to significantly lower mass moment of inertia
- Increased productivity through faster acceleration / decelaration of the machine spindle
- Reduced energy costs
Savings
- Clamping time ist reduced by approx. 10 %
- Tool life is extended by 5 %
Results / customer benefits
- Better workpiece surfaces in every machining plane
- Higher feed rates
Challenge
Workpiece: Tool holder
Clamping task: 4-sided clamping from the outside
Machining: Milling of the shank and of the head
- Better workpiece surface
- More rigid clamping
Savings
- 2 clamping set-ups reduced to only one set-up
- The workpiece is produced approx. 8 % faster and though saving process time
Results / customer benefits
- Higher speeds and feed rates thanks to extremely forceful clamping
- Run-outs between centers are achieved with process reliability
Challenge
Workpiece: Thin shaft
Clamping task: With clamping head and between centers
Machining: Roughing and finish machining in a single process
- Finishing between centers
- Highest concentricity between centers
Savings
- Elimination of the work cycle »hard turning of the bell outer Ø« | Savings: approx. 25 seconds per part
- Increased tool life from 800 to 1,200 workpieces | Savings: approx 30 % of tool costs
Results / customer benefits
- After hardening, the workpiece remains unmachined on the support surface
- One complete manufacturing process is eliminated
Challenge
Workpiece: CV joint
Clamping task: O.D. clamping
Machining: Hard machining
- Rigid support at the machining point
- Position errors of the axis of clamping relative to the support axis are compensated
- Form-compensating support
Savings
- Manufacturing with process reliability
- Scrap reduced to »0«
Results / customer benefits
- Thanks to the enclosing clamping device the workpiece remains securely in the clamped position in spite of high RPM
- Highest clamping forces
- Large radial clamping strokes
Challenge
Workpiece: Casting
Clamping task: O.D. clamping of a blank
Machining: Turning and drilling
- Centrifugally stable clamping even at high RPM
- Integrated balancing system
Savings
- The inexpensive pre-process remains the same
- Easy handling of the finished part for further processing thanks to extremely precise symmetry on the component
Results / customer benefits
- Low-maintenance clamping device
- Stable and rigid clamping
- Different profiles can be set-up easily
Challenge
Workpiece: Fork-head
Clamping task: O.D. clamping
Machining: Turning
- Compensation of the blank tolerances of 1.5 mm in both clamping directions
- Interrupted cut during turning
