At the forthcoming Manufacturing & Engineering North East (MENE) exhibition on Stand D13, Schunk will be showing a multitude of new products alongside some of its established market favourites.
At the Newcastle show, the innovator in workholding, toolholding and automation technology will be unveiling a host of new products for North East customers that didn’t get the opportunity to see the innovations at the recent MACH show.
One product Schunk will be drawing customer’s attention to, will be the new RGG Cleaning Unit. With this, manually blowing swarf from the work envelope of a machine tool can now be a thing of the past. The new RGG cleaning unit fits into tool mountings with a 20mm diameter and can be converted into every machine tool configuration. A small control program can quickly clean the working area, tables and clamping devices, removing all chips. The machine conducts this task far faster and more systematically than any machine operator, saving considerable amounts of time.
Additionally, Schunk will be keen to emphasise the benefits of its TENDO E Compact hydraulic expansion toolholder at MENE. Capable of reducing set-up times by up to 60% whilst generating 2000Nm of torque, the TENDO E Compact delivers micron precision for a host of machining applications. With this precision toolholder, even demanding applications with tight tolerances on the form, position and surface finish can be rapidly and reliably machined.
