Zero-point systems dramatically reduce the downtime of your machines:
- Increase in machine run-time
- Fast workpiece or fixture changeover
Zero-point systems improve the manufacturing quality:
- High repetition accuracy
- Positioning and clamping in a single step
- An uniform interface for all machines
With the ZPS mechanical zero point system, clamping devices such as center clamps, center clamps, machine vices can be changed quickly and easily on the clamping unit. With the zero-point clamping system, machine runtimes can be increased and production quality enhanced. The operation is performed only by a central clamping screw. Due to the flat design and the mounting hole pattern, universal mounting on the machine table or on fixtures is possible.
