HAINBUCH America Corp. introduced new process automation for workpiece clamping with the unveiling of its Automated Change (AC) Line at IMTS 2024.
With the company’s TOPlus AC and SPANNTOP AC chucks, clamping heads and workpiece end-stops can be changed automatically. The chucks enable unattended setup and manufacturing of workpieces with different clamping diameters, profiles and clamping lengths.
The DockLock AC zero-point clamping system enables automated fixture change-over for both hydraulic and pneumatic versions. Hainbuch’s CENTREX duo AC and centroteX AC interfaces enable change-overs for entire clamping devices, and can be adapted to a shop’s unique requirements.
