By OEM Update Editorial March 15, 2017 11:59 am IST

Hoffmann Group has introduced its new GARANT Xpent 5-axis vice at IMTEX 2017. The vice is optimised for 5-face machining and can be quickly and easily adapted to any machining strategy. Flexible clamping options are ensured by the construction and variability of the clamping modules, which can be rotated by 180 degrees.

The new GARANT Xpent is suitable for components ranging from 6 to 986 mm (6 to 386 mm in its standard configuration) and offers a clamping force of up to 40 kN with 90 Nm of torque. Up to 100 mm of travel are possible without conversion, while a modern quick-change system enables rapid spindle replacement. The spindle can be extended and features a trapezoidal thread to facilitate rapid adjustment of the clamping ranges.
