OK-VISE rotary columns are made of aluminium and they come with steel corner clamps. They function as a trunnion unit between the indexer and tail support. This new system makes efficient use of the machinable area a reality, ultimately leading to savings in tool changes, less operator interventions, and extended cycle times. The most important feature is the opportunity to use subplates, resulting in a significant reduction in machine stop times. This is critical, especially in vertical machining centers.

RPS-2T – Rotary Pallet System SUB-PLATE Sub-plates complete the unique structure of the OK-VISE rotary pallet system. Rather than mounting the workholding directly on a column, the workpieces and clamps can be mounted on sub-plates that in turn are mounted on the column’s faces with corner clamps. Using sub-plates reduces machine stop times dramatically and makes loading and unloading parts a matter of seconds rather than minutes. Specially fitted aluminium sub-plates are available for each trunnion unit. The thickness of the plate is 22 mm. The two most typical cases are: • Longitudinal pressing...
