Zero Point Systems

This revolutionary technology allows to fix, position and clamp in a single step, cutting set up times by up to 90%. Available with either pneumatic or hydraulic release, these positive locking and locating modules allow operators to quickly change out large and small fixtures with extreme accuracy and minimum effort.

Quickly and accurately locate and clamp Vises or fixtures, and with pull studs attached to your part, direct mount your component for machining or welding without interference from jaws or clamps. That’s the beauty of what Zero Point System can deliver.

Operating Principle , Features and Application

Operating Principle:

Similar to the mechanism that grips rotary toolholders on many machining centers, zero-point clamps employ a pull stud and clamping balls to pull a pallet, fixture, or other work holding devices (or even the part itself) against the ground face of a zero-point module. The pull stud sits inside the chuck bore and offers positional accuracy within 0.005 mm along with high clamping forces until released through hydraulic or pneumatic pressure.
