Service for Former Fribosa Clamping Devices: Repair, Overhaul and Replacement from SPREITZER

Spare parts, repair and the EHS down-pull vise as an equivalent alternative from Rottweil

Clamping devices often work for decades, and that is exactly where their value lies: a machine vise that is in daily use must still clamp precisely after many years. Anyone who operates former Fribosa down-pull machine vises or precision vises faces the question of who takes care of repair, spare parts and overhaul. SPREITZER from Rottweil takes on exactly these tasks and also offers an equivalent replacement.

A central element is the overhaul. Over the years, wear changes the parallelism and squareness of clamping devices, and the result is inaccurate workpieces. When the vise or fixture is sent in, SPREITZER checks both values by measurement and restores the original factory accuracy. In advance, customers receive a free cost estimate showing whether the overhaul is worthwhile or whether a replacement is more economical.

SPREITZER also helps with defects on clamping jaws, spindles or housings, and does so without original documents. Photos, the type designation on the device or a short phone call are sufficient as a basis. Where a repair no longer makes sense, this is stated openly and alternatives are shown. SPREITZER supplies individual components such as clamping jaws, spindles, T-nuts, replacement cranks and other wear parts from its own range or manufactures them to measure if the original part is no longer available. A drawing, a photo with dimensions or the original part for measuring is enough.

If a repair is no longer economical, SPREITZER offers the EHS down-pull vise from its own production as a direct replacement. It is made of hardened tool steel and manufactured in Germany. The version with spindle is a precision clamping device for tool making and grinding applications as well as milling, drilling and surface grinding. The EHS N down-pull vise without spindle is designed for grinding machines, jig boring machines and precision machines, for example for surface grinding, coordinate grinding, jig boring and EDM. The down-pull system prevents the workpiece from lifting, so no hammering down is needed and no chatter occurs.

SPREITZER is a family-run precision engineering company based in Rottweil and has stood for quality and innovation in clamping technology since 1983. The company manufactures its products itself and is available for service even when the equipment was not made by SPREITZER.
