What types of workpiece clamps are suitable for automated machining?
Workholding clamps with quick-change modules, hydraulic actuation or magnetic systems are commonly used for automated machining. These workholding devices enable fast, repeatable part changes and integrate with zero-point systems.
How do workpiece clamps affect surface finish and tolerances?
A stable clamping concept minimises vibration and part movement; this improves surface finish and supports achieving narrow tolerances when using high-precision workpiece clamps or workholding devices.
Can the same workpiece clamps handle different part geometries?
Modular workholding clamps and adaptable clamping jaws allow flexible fixturing for varied geometries; combining vices, clamping plates and pratzen increases versatility on the shopfloor.
