SPANNTOP 2x2 chuck
Commercially available rectangular profiles can be tricky: Not only, depending on their tolerance, that all four sides of the profile may not have contact with all four sides of the clamping head, but dimension and profile variances are also very common. Not to mention the tremendous tool wear caused by vibration when the rectangular profile is not clamped properly. It is no surprise that materials that have widely fluctuating tolerances are at the bottom of the preferred material list.
But all that is now a thing of the past! With our new SPANNTOP 2x2 chuck you can compensate material variations of up to +/- 0.5 mm in the width and/or height of the profile. Thoughtful engineered mechanics and a four segment clamping head make it possible.
During the clamping cycle the opposing segments move in tandem. The result is that all four sides are clamped at full force, making radial movement of the material impossible. Now you can finally machine rectangular material with a minimum amount of tool wear. A clever solution, isn’t it?
