Extends its grip

28 September 2015

To increase the clamping power placed upon turned parts, Hainbuch has launched its TOPlus range of chucks. For customers who may already be using high-end solutions such as the Hainbuch SPANNTOP range, the new TOPlus is said to provide 25% more holding power.

 

The TOPlus incorporates a pyramid arrangement of glide surfaces to make this possible. The clamping head rests with full-surface contact in the TOPlus chuck body. This even applies with large workpiece tolerances. 

Hainbuch says this geometry ensures the TOPlus line is less sensitive to contamination than previous chuck/clamping head solutions. This enables the TOPlus to provide concentric precision of 0.015mm for chuck sizes to 100m bar capacity. For raw materials, cast and forged parts and also fine-particle non-ferrous metals such as brass, the new TOPlus excels. With all-round optimised values, the TOPlus is a suitable partner for modern manufacturing strategies and state-of-the-art machine tools.

Additional benefits of the TOPlus include the elimination of radial displacement between clamping head and chuck body, which makes it resistant to contamination. Furthermore, the chuck incorporates vibration damping technology that also enables the user to improve surface finishes and precision levels.
