Innovative workholding improves productivity
A
Kurt Manufacturing product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team
Oct 26, 2004
Latest Custom Engineered Workholding brochure is loaded with innovative custom workholding fixtures and tombstones for specific parts and processes to maximise machining center output.
Need ideas for improving workholding productivity and quality? Kurt's new Custom Engineered Workholding brochure is loaded with real-world workholding designs showing innovative solutions that greatly improve throughput while improving part quality.
This new brochure shows how Kurt designs custom workholding fixtures and tombstones for specific parts and processes.
The workholding fixtures maximize machining center output through designs that allow high density part location and fast load/unload features.
Dozens of color photos show workholding setups for aerospace, medical, hydraulic, automation and automotive industry part machining applications.
Many of these workholding setups are designed for 24/7 production.
Kurt brings over four decades of experience in providing solutions to CNC machine workholding problems and a deep understanding of how workholding integrates into today's productivity and quality-driven manufacturing processes.
This brochure shows how Kurt will partner on a project from start to finish including research, design, development and building workholding systems and fixtures, often within a few weeks.
Whether the project requires vises mounted on tombstones or hydraulic actuated clamping fixtures for vertical or horizontal machining centers, Kurt provides the solution.
Some of the many modules included in these Custom Engineered Workholding setups include vises mounted in multiples that are matched for optimum accuracy.
Both cast iron tombstones and steel fabricated tombstones are offered.
And to insure workholding systems are operator friendly, Kurt engineers design high density workholding systems with ease of operation and ergonomics as an important goal.
A custom engineered workholding request quote form is included in the brochure for a fast response to a particular need.
