Information

Our Mechanical ‘O Point’ Clamping System enables you to completely machine a workpiece in one setup, significantly reducing setup time and fixturing costs. With a few quick turns of a wrench, ‘O Point’ clamping modules locate, support, and securely clamp the workpiece from underneath, providing full machining access to 5 sides.

Clamping modules can be mounted exactly where required, anywhere on the fixture plate. These modules fit perfectly on all modular tooling plates and blocks, but can also be used with non-modular tooling. Clamping modules elevate the workpiece for machine-spindle clearance, and are stackable for extra height.

Pull-down studs must be fastened to the underside of the workpiece. Most setups require one zero-point stud (for primary two-axis location), one diamond stud (for single-axis location), and one or more floating studs (for additional support and clamping without location).

Working principle / specification

Mechanical ‘O Point’ Clamping System allows quick change fixturing with 0.005mm locating repeatability on CNC machining centres.

Quick locating and clamping reduce fixture set up time by eliminating operations such as positioning, centring and fixing with screws.

This mechanical clamping system holds fixture plates in different sizes by changing the mounting position.

ADDITIONAL FEATURE

Hook Type for Horizontal Machining Centers

Just lower the fixture for hanging on the clamping module.

Hook-shaped clamping screw secures onto open module body to provide quick, safe clamping.

Clamping screw remains on the module to prevent the fixture from falling before tightening.
