Powerhouse for 5-axis machining
The KONTEC KSX NC vise from SCHUNK is a powerful clamping system for simultaneous 5-axis machining. The compact, and easily accessible clamping system from the competence leader for clamping technology and gripping systems disposes of tool-free adjustable clamping forces between 4 and 40 kN, which are measured directly at the workpiece. This is a great deal of power for a safe hold, even for minimum clamping surfaces. The support surfaces at a height of 211 mm ensure that the workpieces are easily accessible from all sides.

Clamping force block with flexible chuck jaw monitoring
The TANDEM KSP plus clamping force block from SCHUNK, the competence leader for clamping technology and gripping systems, is setting new standards in automated manufacturing. For the first time ever, a standardized clamping force block provides for flexible monitoring along the whole jaw stroke. Whether using I.D. or O.D. clamping: With a few grips the positions "opened" or "clamped" for any base jaw position can be adjusted. Monitoring is done via two inductive proximity switches, which are integrated in two special recesses of the base jaws. The system is sealed, and is therefore resistant against dirt. Since the signal can be directly processed in the machine control unit, the flexible queried clamping force blocks can be quickly and easily integrated into existing machines.

Powerful robot coupling for pallet handling
If machine tools are loaded automatically, a reliable, precise, and space saving workpiece change is playing an important role. For this particular case, SCHUNK, the competence leader for clamping technology and gripping systems has developed a slim, light-weight coupling with minimized interfering contours, where the pallet loading is taking place very close to the machine table. By using the VERO-S NSR, very thin attachments to the clamping station and pallet are feasible, and therefore a lot of space remains for the workpiece in the machine room, and for the axes motions.
