Clamping and fixing workpieces securely - New compact floating clamps from norelem
norelem is expanding its range of floating clamps for clamping and supporting components at overdetermined clamping points with a new, very compact model from its own production. The new floating clamp model from norelem is available in two versions. Depending on the application, the standard clamping jaw can be modified or replaced.
With floating clamps, the clamping jaws hold the workpiece securely in position by means of spring force, but with a certain flexibility, and support it - which is why floating clamps are used for thin-walled, bend-sensitive workpieces. They also prevent vibrations and deflection during machining, making them ideal for raw parts with ribs or parts with complex or irregular shapes. The ‘floating’ fixing of the part enables the freedom of movement required for machining, leads to precise results with sensitive workpieces and minimises clamping errors.
