In the machine tool industry,while spindles and drive systems form the backbone of machine tools, cutting tools and clamping systems directly dictate machining precision and efficiency.Cutting tools perform the material removal, while clamping systems ensure the stable positioning of both tools and workpieces. Together, they determine machining accuracy, efficiency, and surface quality.
Autogrip Machinery Co., Ltd., established in 1989, is a renowned Taiwanese manufacturer that specializes in the development and manufacture of machine chucks, rotary cylinders, and related parts. Autogrip offers a wide range of lathe chuck products, including power chucks, pneumatic/hydraulic rotary cylinders, facing heads, and clamping products. These exceptionally high-rigidity and high-precision solutions play a crucial role in various industries, ensuring efficient and accurate machining processes.
In the machining process, as the tool cuts off the unnecessary material from the workpiece, a cutting force will be generated on the workpiece. To resist the cutting force and allow the cutting process to be completed, the workpiece must be firmly clamped on the machine tool. The device that positions and clamps the workpiece is called a fixture. The device that holds and guides the cutting tool is called a jig.
