MILLTec Round is the circular version optimised for installation on 5-axis machines. The reduced thickness and low weight facilitate machine performance while preserving the span and capacity of the machine’s use.
With a machine equipped with this technology, it is easier to carry out complex operations such as complete profiling, undercut machining, through holes and pocket creation.

MILLTec Round, the latest generation of circular magnetic chucks, is an innovative workholding system for 5-axis machines and represents a solution for holding workpieces on 5-axis machines. Working on 5 axes allows the use of shorter tools to increase feed rates and cutting speeds. With a machine equipped with this technology, it is easier to carry out complex operations such as complete profiling, undercut machining, through holes and pocket creation.
Machine performance is optimised when all 5 sides of the piece are accessible; unfortunately, with traditional workholding systems, the machining area is limited by the presence of brackets, which often require more tooling.
