Clamping technology
Save set-up time
Heinrich Kipp offers several clamping systems that are compatible with each other. One example of this is the Uni-Lock five-axis modular system combined with the Uni-Lock zero-point clamping system. This enables highly efficient machine utilization.
The machine table is equipped with the zero-point clamping system; other tilting clamping systems can then be changed quickly. The attached five-axis modular system is suitable for five-sided machining of complex workpieces of small and medium sizes. Workpieces can either be clamped on the five-axis modular system or directly on the zero-point clamping system. Unproductive non-productive times, such as reclamping or aligning the workpiece, are completely eliminated. The repeat accuracy of both systems is in the range of 0.005 millimetres. The central element is the clamping pin, which is used universally for all clamping systems. Thanks to the large selection of bolts, almost any workpiece can be clamped. The clamping pins are positively locked to the clamping element.
The five-axis modular system is available in system sizes 80 and 50 millimetres thanks to the extension. Both sizes can be combined with each other in one clamping, which opens up further possibilities for workpiece fastening. The advantage of the 50 mm system is that it is ideal for five-sided machining of small workpieces without interfering edges; the clamping force here is up to ten kilonewtons. pb
