SMART GRIP 5 Axis Workholding Systems
Systems Overview
Maximize the Performance of your 5-Axis Machining Center with Rigid & High Accuracy Work-Piece Clamping Systems
The HSK interface (between the head and the work-holder) and the dovetail clamping (between the work-holder and the work-piece) create a compact design with less interference and high rigidity for metalworking applications
• The rigid system developed for metalworking applications.
• No interference and superior accessibility.
• Handling the work-piece is easy using a general-purpose robot.
