BIG Kaiser's Adaption Kit Simplifies Use of the Unilock Clamping System
BIG Kaiser Precision Tooling Inc. introduces a rotary indexer adapter kit, designed for use with the Unilock clamping system.
According to the company's press release, the 210mm adapter kit mounts to any rotary table with a t-slot faceplate. Unilock’s clamping concept provides a comprehensive system to position and clamp workpieces for efficient part loading. It can be used on workpieces of any size or weight, and in any configuration and numerous processes. Unilock’s simple load, lock, and cycle start scenario will allow your capital equipment to incur less downtime for process changes.
The new rotary indexer adapter kit allows operators to unlock the Unilock chuck and change setups or workpieces. The clamping system is designed to preserve a repeatable accuracy of .0002” (.005mm) or better with a retention force greater than 11,000 lbs. Opening a Unilock chuck and swapping out the workpiece or fixture can be accomplished in a few minutes.
