Special advantages of vacuum clamping systems
- reduces clamping times
- universal clamping system for different parts
- clamping nonmagne tic parts
- machine without oscillation or vibration
- only one clamping procedure for 5 side machining
- clamp extremely thin workpieces and foils
- milling through workpieces
Vacuum-clamping technology can be used in nearly all machining processes:
- Turning and milling
- Grinding and polishing
- Drilling, reaming and sinking
- Engraving, Eroding
- Checking and measuring
- Surface treatment
of
- Aluminium
- Non ferrous metals
- Graphite
- Synthetic materials
- Glass
- Wood
- Ceramics
- Titanium
- Steel
Principals of set-up of a vacuum clamping system
1. Vacuum supply
A modular vacuum unit with integrated liquid separator, storage tank and pressure control. Other pumps/units are available.
2. Vacuum distributor, connection unit or safety appliance
Distribution of operating vacuum to the chucks. Gauges, choice of manual or magnetic valves and pressure controls for watching over operating vacuum level. All these variations are available.
3. Vacuum chucks
Chucks to accomodate your requirements and clamping operations. Photo shows modular VAC-MAT chucks for 5 side machining.
