Immediate Positioning and Clamping System

5/5

The Zero Point is an immediate positioning and clamping system, that represents the ideal solution for the positioning and the precise, fast and firm clamping of the equipments on the machine tools.

The Zero Point is a system “NORMALLY CLOSED”, that uses die springs which allows the clamping of the pull-stud through the spheres located inside, while the filtered and lubricated compressed air enables the release only so there is no need to keep pipes connected constantly to the fixture.

SOLID ELASTIC COLLETS

The multiple Zero Point system (Art.664-665) allows, thanks to the solid integral elastic collet, a lateral translation, that solves problems of centre distances and variations caused by the temperature. The central reference point remains steady accuracy within microns.

POSITIONING KEYS

The Positioning Keys on the Zero Point Body allow the correct and safe positioning of the fixture or the workpiece you need to machine.

CLAMPING FORCE INCREASE

The DOUBLE EFFECT, possible with the single zero point units (hermetic), allows to get clamping results much higher than the normal thanks to the non-return valve. When the double effect is operated the air adds a pneumatic clamping power which supports and increases the normal clamping through springs.

PULL STUDS

The Pull Studs ensure a correct alignement and positioning of the fixtures and can be also assembled directly on the workpiece.
They can be male or female according to the application needs

ZERO POINT PLATE

The Zero Point Units could be applicated on many different plates.

IDEAL FOR VERTICAL CNC

The Zero Point becomes the interface of all your fixtures and also your workpieces

IDEAL FOR horizontaL CNC

The Zero Point is also a way to upgrade your existing fixtures

IDEAL FOR 5 axis CNC

The Zero Point is also a way to upgrade your existing fixtures
