Clamping System
Flexible Clamping Solutions
We deliver specialized solutions aimed at optimizing clamping systems for high-performance manufacturing. Our services are structured around two core offerings
CNC Machine Equipment Solutions
Based on the specifics of the machine and the size range of the workpieces, we provide a set of clamping components and an optimized manufacturing methodology that enhance resource utilization and operational efficiency.
Process Application Solutions
- Clamping configurations as well as recommendations on extra material allowances for each manufacturing stage
- Stress-relief techniques and workpiece alignment strategies
- Remote assistance and on-site support
Unlock your potential, making FCS lock the workpiece
Discover the advantages of FCS systems. Our modular clamping technology optimizes setup times, enhances machining accuracy, and boosts productivity across all manufacturing sectors. FCS helps unlock your full potential by making every setup fast, safe, and reliable.
Performance
Setting Up
CAD/CAM Simulation
It allows to solve issues upstream (in the virtual stage – CAD/CAM) that would otherwise arise downstream (in the real process – Production department)
Assembling optimization
The components have been made to be easily and quickly assembled.
Workpiece positioning and orientation
The clamping system framework allows to keep track of the position and orientation of the workpiece with high accuracy along the production process.
OPs reduction
Thanks to:
– the machining accessibility increasement;
– the stress relieving management caused by the metal cutting
Cutting
Machining accessibility (up to 5 free-faces)
High accessibility to machine the workpiece (minimized obstacles/interference issues).
Optimal clamping force
The clamping system ensures strength and rigidity without causing any geometric deviation to the workpiece.
Minimized cutting tool vibrations
The clamping components are designed to dampening the vibrations.
Cycle-time (Run time) reduction. MRR (Metal Removal Rate) increasement
As a consequence of the points above.
Compliance
Accuracy on reaching the requested tolerance and roughness
The clamping components are manufactured with high accuracy in order to transfer it to the workpiece alignment (high angular and linear position accuracy of the workpiece). The roughness is strictly depending on the capability to minimize the vibrations.
Risk of collisions minimised
As result of minimizing obstacles around the workpiece and keeping position references.
Keep the position and orientation references all over the process
It helps to input correctly the zero CAM.
Structure and Functions
Modular, standardized and proportional to the workpiece size
If the machine working area is capable to include more parts together, the clamping system is configurable to clamp individually more parts with many options.
Lends it self to new developments and to be easily interconnected with not FCS product
The clamping system, is designed to be furtherly extended to include additional components (even if they are not FCS components).
Very low and easy maintenance
It requires simple interventions (daily cleaning, monthly rust prevention oil and only a few spare parts may need to be replaced).
Automation
Further increasement of the production volume and of the efficiency
Quick workpiece changeover, by means of multipallet and automatic clamping system allow to increase the efficiency and the production volume.
Production Chain
Adopting the same production method
Extending the same clamping approch internally in the production workflow and externally (in outsourcing) further (synergical) benefits are achieved.
Profitable
Investment
Short pay back period
The breakeven point (time it takes to recover the cost of the clamping components) can be reached within 6 till to 18 months.
Durability
If properly used and maintained the clamping components have long-lasting (more than 10years).
Emotional
Perceptiveness
Improving of the working environment
The use of FCS clamping components is similar to Lego, and the starting grid resembles the game Battleship
