Balance MCP machine vice
Besides 5-axis machining and concentric clamping, the position flexible workholding system HILMA.MCP Balance offers the solution for individual or series clamping of bars, rails, profiles, guide rails or housings.
The compensating function prevents tensioning and deformation on the workpiece.
Workpieces that are fixed by internal contours or positioning elements can also be clamped concentrically.
For this purpose, customer-specific dowel holes or tapped holes can be provided in the guide bars of the HILMA.MCP Balance in which the workpiece supports or stops can be fixed.


Function
The workholding systems HILMA.MCP Z Balance have a floating clamping point (with released locking). After operation of the clamping spindle, first the two clamping slides concentrically approach a location-fixed workpiece position.
When both clamping jaws are in contact with the workpiece, the desired clamping force is applied using a torque wrench.
Up to this point, the clamping point is still floating.
Once the desired clamping force is reached, the clamping point, which was floating up to this point, will be safely fixed by the clamping point.
By adapting the clamping point to the fixed workpiece position, deformation of the workpiece is prevented.
