With the double-concentric
Quadrok clamping unit,
Hainbuch offers a universal
clamping system for machining
centres - especially 5 axis machining.
The unit can be adapted to clamp almost any work piece up to 250 x 250mm. It has four-sided clamping and an extremely shallow grip depth.
Large material removal rates are possible through active jaw pull back, while simple saw cuts can be machined with the same high level of performance as complex cast parts.
The unit has 5 different clamping functions: vice, concentric, doublevice, concentric + vice, or doubleconcentric clamping function.
Functions are selected with the simple turn of a switch on each of the quick change jaws, with repeatability better than 0.010mm in all axes, regardless of whether first or second operation machining, outside or inside gripping.
The Quadrok also features a quick change jaw mounting system accurate to 0.003mm. It is possible to swap the work holding in a matter of seconds to a collet chuck or mandrel and jaw system using the universal base unit and Hainbuch's modular clamping system.
