Clamping out-of-round work pieces with a minimum of deformation? If you use the MANDREX cartridge, it's easy and effective. The out-of-roundness of the machined area can be reduced significantly depending on the work piece. Incredible.
Guidelines for using the MANDREX cartridge:
The bore that needs to be clamped cannot have any slots or grooves.
The tolerance of the clamping bore should not be more than 0.3 mm.
Ideally, the work piece should cover the entire length of the clamping cartridge. If the work piece is shorter than the standard MANDREX cartridge [minimum of 1/3 of the length of the clamping cartridge], please contact our experts.
In order to achieve best possible results, we custom manufacture MANDREX cartridges according to each particular application.
Standard end-stops, that you can modify yourself to suit your requirements, are in stock. They are blank with a hardness of 40 HRC.
