VACUUM CHUCKS FOR ANY WORKPIECE IN ANY CNC MACHINE

2L inc. (Hudson, MA) adds two new vacuum chucks to its precision vacuum chuck product line. Along with the successful 8 in x 12 in Modular Vac-Vise Vacuum Chuck Systems, two larger Vacuum Chucks, in sizes of 18 in x 36 in and 24 in x 48 in, are now available. With the addition of the new sizes, 2L Vacuum Chucks can now accommodate virtually any size workpiece in any size CNC machine.

ELECTRO-MAGNETIC CLAMPING SYSTEM FOR 5-SIDED MACHINING

Schunk Inc. (Morrisville, NC) expands its workholding product range with several new lines of magnetic clamping. The new lines include a complete line of permanent and electro permanent grinding and EDM magnets, bipolar magnets for holding round bars to cut Key-Ways and Whip Stocks or Radial magnets for holding rings, as well as other magnets for special applications.

HYBRID CHUCK CUTS TOOL TIME IN HALF

This effective combination of centering chuck and magnetic chuck lowers tooling times by up to 50 percent. This solution was first presented by clamping technology expert Röhm GmbH (Sontheim/Brenz, Germany). The hybrid chuck MZMF is the perfect combination of 3-jaw manual chuck and round magnetic support plate. Through the combination of two technologies, workpieces of different sizes can not only be evenly and securely clamped, but also machined from three sides.
