The MillTec Round circular magnetic chucks represent an innovative solution for clamping pieces of 5-axis machines.
Working on 5 axes allows the use of shorter tools to increase the feeds and the cutting speed. With a machine equipped with this technology, it is easier to carry out complex operations such as the complete profiling, the undercut working, the through holes and the creation of pockets.
Best machine performance is achieved when all five faces of the workpiece are accessible; unfortunately, with traditional locking systems, the processing area is limited by the presence of the brackets, which often require multiple setups. With MillTec the workpiece is clamped from the base, without any obstacle to the tool, with multiple benefits:
Increased productivity
Complete machining on 5 sides in one setup without the limitations of the brackets.
Reduction of time and costs
No waste of money; screws, brackets, consumables are no longer needed. No wasting time for the preparation of the fixing tools; the workpiece is clamped in a few seconds.
High accuracy
The clamping is uniform on the entire contact surface; this results in the absence of distortions and deformations.
Flexibility
It is not necessary to pre-machine the workpiece.
