The Schmalz FlexMat enables maximum flexibility in the clamping process. Even if it is not completely occupied by the workpiece, a vacuum sufficient for machining can be created. This makes it ideal for workpieces with apertures or filigree shapes, and it can be easily replaced as a wear part in the event of damage
Vacuum Blocksfor grid tables enable simple and flexible use without complex installation. The non-slip fixings enable secure clamping of the workpieces even with high processing forces. This makes them ideal for complex five-axis applications without a wear plate.
TheMatrix Plate Vacuum Clamping Systemis particularly suitable for process-safe clamping of large, flat metal workpieces with smooth bottom surfaces on CNC machining centres and guarantees very short set-up times. Even components which are difficult to clamp mechanically can be clamped easily, quickly, without distortion and precisely.
The Matrix-Plate can be secured quickly on the machine table with the aid of clamping claws or a zero-point clamping system. The modular design ensures maximum flexibility since the components are easy to handle and the various versions can be combined freely. The complexity of the workpiece geometry, the type of machining and the horizontal forces which have to be handled determine which version of the Matrix-Plate should be used.
Schmalz clamping solutions ensure flexible and efficient production processes in glass working. Suction cups with special friction pads are wear resistant and guarantee precise results, even in challenging operating conditions. Schmalz developed the Quick-Change System SQC especially for machine tables with screw-attachment suction cups. The quick-change suction cups offer minimal setup times and maximum flexibility.
With the new vacuum clamping system Multi-Clamp, Schmalz offers the perfect tool for ergonomic clamping of small and medium-sized workpieces. Workpieces clamped with the Multi-Clamp can be worked on from all sides without reclamping.
The lightweight construction of the Multi-Clamp guarantees a maximum degree of flexibility for simple and quick operation. The clamping system can be used on almost any flat surface and consists of the Multi-Clamp suction plate and the Multi-Base which enables to swivel and rotate the workpiece. The complete system Multi-Clamp is available with an integrated vacuum generator (pneumatic ejector) or optionally available with an external vacuum pump.
