Standardized RCC Axes for High-Speed Assembly
When complete Z or Y axes are to be moved in high-precision high-speed applications, the linear modules of SCHUNK's LCx series set a new benchmark. The profiles of the world's first standardized linear motor axes made of reinforced carbon composite weigh approximately 58% less than the profiles of comparable aluminum modules resulting in quicker acceleration with less energy. Since the thermal...

Standardized Long-Stroke Gripper with CFC Housing
The standardized CGH light-weight gripper is the result of modern simulation methods, intensive test series, and economic manufacturing processes. The long-stroke gripper benefits from the specific material characteristics of CFC: Its E-value is four times higher, and its tensile force is twice as high as aluminum. The gripper weight has been reduced by 40%. In order to take complete advantage of...

Hydraulic Expansion Toolholder features 0.00 mm run-out accuracy.
TENDOzero- directly integrates 4 lateral set-screws, which directly affect tool shank, so that, with Torx- plus key, angular position of clamped precision tool is corrected and run-out is adjusted. Compensation for spindle's run-out errors are done at machine, and vibration damping promotes even cut while also minimizing micro blow-outs at cutting edge. Features include conventional cooling from...
