In Booth W-432528, Röhm Products of America (Suwanee, GA) will present a wide range of workholding systems that lead to higher levels of efficiency in turning, milling, grinding and drilling applications as well as enable lights-out manufacturing. The workholding specialist will also demonstrate how they are a single source supplier for chucks, centers, face drivers, rotating workholding, fixtures, palletizing and robot gripping solutions. A must-see for show visitors will be the KZF-S collet chuck, a powered external clamping chuck for gear surface face grinding that is especially well suited for clamping gears/workpieces that have an external plane or gear teeth geometries accessible from the outside. This chuck also allows face and ID diameters to be turned or ground concentric to outer gear pitch diameters.
Also being showcased will be the EASYLOCK clamping system, a zero point palletization system that reduces setup times by up to 90 percent. With a standardized interface and level of precision and repeat accuracy of less than 0.005 mm, EASYLOCK can be outfitted with a large range of Röhm’s collet chucks, lathe chucks and vises for full flexibility via its modular design. The clamping system is equally well suited for vertical, horizontal or multi-axis machining.
