Traditional mechanical workholding systems cause deformations: RadialTec offers an innovative solution for machining rings using a single support surface through mobile extensions. Uniform magnetic workholding, no deformation or vibration of the workpiece on the 3 faces for grinding and turning operations after hardening. Better finishing quality, longer tool life. The solution RadialTec, permanent-electro magnetic systems for turning and vertical grinding For every company involved in the turning of washers, bearings, rings and flanges, a common problem is holding the workpiece without deforming it. In fact, traditional mechanical workholding systems cause ovality and deformations. RadialTec clamps the workpiece from the support surface only. There are no obstacles to the tool path: a complete machining of the workpiece is possible with a single positioning. The use of pole extensions allows the workpiece to be spaced from the surface of the chuck, making the internal and external diameters completely accessible for any machining. The uniformity of workholding typical of the magnetic system eliminates problems due to vibrations, with great benefits in terms of machining tolerances, tool life, chip removal and machine productivity.
