The Best 3-in-1 Solution

A new compact Jaw Modular system from Hainbuch solves many problems.

It redefines jaw clamping and marks the beginning of a new era in workholding. It is small, flexible, can be quickly changed, and covers a large clamping range.

Holding Hard and Fast

A new Bison 4-jaw chuck has been designed for machining operations requiring high gripping forces, such as the production of large crankshafts and turbine rotors.

 

Thanks to a clamping force of over 20,000 daN per jaw, large cutting torques at relatively small clamping diameters can be achieved.

Advantage ZeroClamp

Our ZeroClamp® zero point clamping system has a number of features that set this reliable and robust workholding solution apart from other competitor systems.

Using the face and taper HSK spindle tooling principle it can achieve a repeatability of +/- 2.5 micron, around 10 times more accurate than existing systems.

ZEROCLAMP IN PRINT

 

Thanks to the highly accurate repeatability of the ZeroClamp® system parts can be unloaded and reloaded with the minimum of fuss. This new catalogue details the whole product range. 

 

The simple design uses just a few high quality stainless or corrosion resistant steel components so it is very robust and is unaffected by swarf or coolant ingress, the pots can be quickly cleaned out with a blast from a standard airline gun.

 

Avoiding all the disadvantages of a hydraulic system, the smart design of the Leader ZeroClamp® system means that the units are around half the height of any alternative zero point fixtures, which allows the machine tool to keep more of its working envelope capacity.

 

The typical use of zero point fixturing involves manual pallets, which improve efficiency by allowing parts to be loaded and set-up outside of the machine tool.
