German BalTec workpiece fixture BalTec model BalTec price

BalTec workpiece fixtures use hydraulic components to replace mechanical parts, achieving automatic positioning, support, and clamping of workpieces through hydraulic control. They offer advantages such as high clamping force, reliable clamping, stable operation, and ease of use, and are currently widely used in scenarios such as CNC machine tools, machining centers, and automated production lines. By assembling the selected hydraulic components with the designed mechanical parts, the required fixture can be obtained. Hydraulic fixtures ensure accurate positioning and secure clamping of the workpiece at the specified position, and can reduce vibration and deformation during machining through floating supports. They can also utilize automatic control to press down and lift the clamp plates to clear the clamping position during machining. Hydraulic fixtures can withstand large cutting forces during rough machining, ensure accurate positioning during precision machining, and perform support, clamping, and quick release tasks that manual fixtures cannot accomplish.

BalTec workpiece fixture structure

The cross-sectional shape and distribution of the magnetic poles vary depending on the workpiece. Common structures of electromagnetic chucks include rectangular and circular types. Rectangular magnetic poles are divided into longitudinal and horizontal arrangements. Longitudinal arrangement of rectangular magnetic poles is suitable for fixing larger workpieces; horizontal arrangement of rectangular magnetic poles is suitable for fixing smaller workpieces. Circular chucks are suitable for fixing ring-shaped workpieces or workpieces with complex shapes. The main characteristics of ordinary electromagnetic chucks are: magnetic flux lines are evenly distributed on the surface of the chuck, electromagnetic attraction cannot be concentrated, and the magnetic force per unit area is relatively small; the direction of the magnetic force is perpendicular to the chuck surface and difficult to change, producing only one type of magnetic force on workpieces with the same contact area; the point of action of the magnetic force on the workpiece is limited to the contact surface between the workpiece and the chuck, and cannot be changed arbitrarily. Therefore, disadvantages during machining include low positioning accuracy, insufficient clamping force, narrow scope of application, and low production efficiency.

BalTec workpiece fixture features

1) Chuck holding force: Electrically controlled powerful chucks have super strong holding force, up to 16kg/cm², with uniform and adjustable magnetic distribution, suitable for various heavy-duty machining, rough machining, and precision machining; ordinary powerful chucks have weaker and uneven holding force, unable to meet the requirements of heavy-duty machining operations. 2) Machining accuracy: The holding force of electrically controlled powerful chucks does not require a continuous power supply to maintain, generating no heat during continuous operation, avoiding thermal deformation of the workpiece. Meanwhile, the strong and uniform surface suction ensures the highest machining accuracy even if the workpiece extends beyond the table surface; whereas ordinary electromagnetic chucks require a continuous current supply, generating heat after a period of operation, which not only causes thermal deformation of the workpiece but also reduces the chuck's magnetic force, failing to guarantee machining accuracy. 3) Performance: Electrically controlled powerful chucks can be used continuously, operating for more than 20 hours daily without any faults or need for maintenance; ordinary permanent magnet chucks show a decline in holding force after about half a year of use, while electromagnetic chucks can only operate for a few hours a day, are prone to failures, and require frequent replacement and repair of internal components. 4) Operational efficiency: Ordinary powerful chucks require significant time for workpiece adjustment during use, accounting for 40%-50% of the entire machining process. Clamping and positioning are prone to obvious errors, resulting in a high scrap rate and very low efficiency; electrically controlled powerful chucks feature automatic auxiliary positioning, completing workpiece clamping or release in 0.3 seconds with the simple press of a button, significantly improving production efficiency.

BalTec workpiece fixture maintenance

1) Check before use whether the limit dimensions remain in the correct position. 2) If stop pins are excessively worn, they can be ground and repaired; if baffles, pins, or locating taper pins are excessively worn, they can be reassembled, shifting the worn areas to continue use. 3) Apply anti-rust oil after use. Regular long-term lubrication maintains the life of synchronous fixtures; incorrect lubrication leads to reduced clamping force, poor accuracy, wear, and jamming, so correct lubrication is essential. After machining, be sure to clean the body and slide ways of the synchronous fixture using an air gun or similar tool. During cleaning, remove the dust cover fixing screws and take off the dust cover, while opening the main jaws to their widest position to easily clean chips accumulated inside the fixture. To avoid reduced clamping force due to rust, use rust-preventive cutting oil. Remove the synchronous fixture every six months for a thorough cleaning (at least every two months when machining cast iron or copper products). Check parts for damage or wear, and replace with new items immediately if severe. Lubricate thoroughly before assembly.
