New Clamping Physics in Workpiece Clamping Technology

By separating the clamping force from the workpiece support we achieve substantially better clamping values. The workpiece always centres itself due to the symmetrical structure of the 5-axis clamping system.

Additionally, only limited torques are transferred onto the machine table. Workpieces are pressed firmly on the seating ledge due to the pull-down effect of both jaws. The intellegent clamping technology increases clamping rigidity for the highest cutting and feed forces.

Short standard tools can be used thanks to optimum accessibility to the workpiece. Tool costs are significantly reduced.

The clamping range of the compact tool which HEINRICH KIPP WERK supplies with a jaw width of 90 mm or 125 mm can be extended to suit Users have the choice between smooth clamping jaws for pre-machined workpieces or jaws with clamping pins for machining blanks.

The clamping jaws can be re-adjusted to new workpieces rapidly and securely thanks to ease of use and quick adjustment by means of a scale. The clamp can be mounted on T-slot tables, grid systems and conventional zero-point clamping systems.
