Compact collet closer improves machining productivity

Designed for use on either vertical or horizontal machining centres, the Lexair Tri-Grip collet closer maximises the raw material loading capacity of any machining centre.

 

Featuring a compact design with three closers integrated into one body the Tri-Grip unit has simplified hydraulic plumbing and an accessible-from-the-top collet locking screw which allows the part to be correctly orientated.

 

Using the popular 5C collet the compact Tri-Grip units can be arranged in grids which increase the loading density of any machining centre’s worktable. For vertical machining centre applications the units can be located on a plate, which is subsequently fitted to the machine’s worktable. For horizontal machining centres applications the Tri-Grip units can be mounted on a cube or tombstone to provide a flexible and efficient workholding solution.

Positively simple

advantages

 

PosiStop is a low-cost system for the fast and consistent positive location of billets in lathe chuck jaws. Available in heights of 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40 mm, PosiStop is suitable for jaws up to 55 mm wide and offers fast and accurate workpiece location every time. 

 

It is a simple but effective concept and the units are designed to quickly slip onto the chuck to provide a positive location for raw material, which can be sawn billets, castings, forgings or even partly machined components, to be loaded against.

COST-EFFECTIVE PRODUCTIVITY

 

The MultiChuck MMY brings a host of advantages to the self-centring of round and square parts on vertical and horizontal machining centres, milling machines and grinders.

 

The concentric clamping system offers a cost-effective route to more productive manufacturing, and an improved Return on Investment (ROI) from the capital invested from your machine tools.

 

Unlike traditional side lock/unlock units the simple top face operation of the MultiChuck MMY means that the chucks can be tightly packed on to a base plate, increasing the density of the workpieces loaded on the machine’s table to maximise the running time of the spindle.
