Clamping technology
Workpieces must be fixed and held in position in order to be able to process them safely, quickly and efficiently. Depending on the shape, size and material of the workpiece, different clamping technologies and clamping devices are used. Regardless whether mechanical, hydraulic, magnetic or vacuum technology - we at AXA Maschinenbau develop individual solutions or integrate existing systems. Together with numerous partners, we find the correct clamping technology.
Rotary tables movable along the X-axis and zero-point clamping systems on the fixed machine tables allow for fast and flexible changeovers to meet different work piece requirements
Shafts and pipes are held in centring clamps. The workpieces are automatically rotated by means of the rotary table housed on the left-hand side

On the swivelling bridge several workpieces can be clamped in parallel and each machined on three sides
Quickly changing clamping elements can be incorporated by the zero-point clamping systems. Main supporting units can be adjusted manually in the X-direction or be NC-driven
The assembly of the clamping device and workpiece on a rotary table allows several sides to be machined in one clamping operation
The clamping elements each open and pivot sideways to uncover the area to be machined for the milling tool as it moves past
The workpiece is hydraulically aligned and clamped against impacts – Rapidly changeable clamping devices for workpieces of different sizes minimise
