Hainbuch’s CentroteX S is a mini version of its clamping device changeover system, offering the added advantage of enabling actuation with just one screw to reduce setup times.
The system was designed to enable a robot to quickly change the clamping device. With lesser tightening torque than is required with the large variant (the CentroteX M), the CentroteX S can be assembled more quickly.
The company says the clamping system provides high repeatability and a more ergonomic operation. With a diameter of 52 mm and a small outer diameter of 224 mm, the CentroteX S changeover system is well suited for machines with a small workspace.
Setup is simple, according to the company. The machine adapter is mounted on the spindle, enabling the adapter and the adapter counterpart (which is equipped with the clamping device) to be exchanged in a short time. The result is faster setup times, ROI and cutting times. The CentroteX systems can be utilized with either a Hainbuch-supplied chuck or a customer’s existing chuck.
