New in clamping technology

norelem has many new products to facilitate clamping and fixation of workpieces and components.

norelem has significantly expanded its clamping technology section: More than 800 items have been added to the existing clamping technology range. For example, there are innovations and expansions in the zero-point clamping technology and in the clamp strap and plate categories.

In the main group "norelem positions" in the subgroup 01000 the categories "Plates", "Add-on elements", "Angle plates" and "Cube tombstones" have been expanded. These products are the basis of clamping fixtures. Among other things, three new product families are now available in the "Plates" category: Square and round cast iron base plates with grid holes and cast iron subplates with grid holes. Users can construct modular fixtures with these solutions, which can be positioned and fastened directly onto machine tables.

In subgroup 04000, norelem has, among other things, expanded the category "Stepped clamps" by seven product families. Clamp straps and claw clamps are part of the mechanical clamping elements. At norelem, both pre-assembled components and individual items are available with which individual assemblies can be constructed. Diverse styles and types ensure that the clamp straps can be used for a wide range of tasks and applications. Clamp straps and claw clamps are required in mechanical engineering, fixture construction and prototype construction. Among other things, they ensure a secure hold of the workpiece when milling and welding.

Finally, norelem has introduced a new subgroup 42000 "Zero point clamping technology". This includes four catagories: "Zero-point clamping systems", "5-axis module clamping system 80", "5-axis module clamping system 50" and "5-axis module clamping system 138". In this category, norelem has assembled a whole range of tools that save time and effort when clamping. Zero point clamping systems enable fast, precise clamping and referencing of fixtures and workpieces on all metal-cutting machine tools and machining centres as well as on EDM and metrology machines. With pallet, fixture, vice or workpiece, these systems enable a changeover in seconds with a defined zero point and making a repeat accuracy of less than 0.005 mm possible.
