The task
Extremely thin-walled aluminum tubes must be clamped with a minimum of distortion.
The superior solution provided by the HAINBUCH experts
MANDREX, a mandrel whose clamping elements are laminated with a thin layer of wear resistant hardened steel, yet still preserves its elasticity. The mandrel has an HSK adapter on the left and is clamped with a SPANNTOP pull-back chuck on the right. The pullback effect creates additional rigidity during turning, which is especially important when working with extremely long work pieces.
