PLANOS - the universal clamping system

Clamping device for space/aircraft applications Workpiece geometries in the aerospace industry can be very complex. As such, they usually require a special clamping solution tailored to the individual application. Maximum precision and gentle workpiece machining are of great importance here. PLANOS matrix plates from SCHUNK can be used to mount even thin workpieces gently and reliably. They minimize set-up times and grant the user a high degree of flexibility.		Modular individuality: combine mechanical clamping elements and matrix plates

Efficient clamping of aluminum cubes The PLANOS matrix plate is mounted on the machine table using mechanical clamping modules. These clamp the thin-walled bottom of the workpiece precisely and without distorting it, thus allowing efficient 5-axes machining. The vacuum is generated by the powerful SCHUNK SVAGG vacuum unit. The SVAGG's compact design makes it portable and allows it to be transported to the site of installation on rollers.		PLANOS matrix plate on a CNC machining center

Milling through a workpiece With grid table suction devices from SCHUNK, you can even produce cut-outs. In addition to this, the workpiece is machined with low height tolerances in the first stage. In the second stage, the grid table suction devices are inserted directly into the matrix plate grid and arranged. The workpiece can then be drilled without damaging the matrix plate or the component.		Grid table suction device for drilling and milling through workpieces
