TOPlus IQ chuck  from HAINBUCH receives MM Award from trade journal

MARBACH. After receiving the Innovation Award from the Small and Mid-Sized Business Initiative for the TOPlus chuck in June, HAINBUCH can now chalk up the next success for the year 2007. The newly developed, intelligent TOPlus IQ chuck received the MM Award from the trade journal MM MaschinenMarkt at the EMO Hannover 2007. From over 100 entries, the judges chose the HAINBUCH chuck as the winner in the category of clamping devices, in acknowledgment of the pioneering spirit and exceptional engineering performance of the Marbach-based company.

Because there has never been a chuck that automatically regulates the clamping force and compensates centrifugal force for precise holding power. The sophisticated sensor technology measures the holding force, transmits the value wirelessly to the receiving station and initiates a correction, if necessary. And not only does the TOPlus IQ chuck require no separate power supply, since the power is generated by the rotation of the chuck; the intelligent chuck also has minimal coefficient of friction due to a refined ball construction and the resulting rolling friction. »Innovation is when the customer says ‘Wow’. Apparently this is the reaction we got from the judges, as well«, explains HAINBUCH Managing Director Gerhard Rall with an impish smile, obviously pleased with the award.
