Quick-change workholding system

Sept. 12, 2013
The CL5 quick-change five-axis workholding system consists of three components: a subplate, a riser, and top tooling made up of a vise or a fixture plate. The subplate transforms a T-slot table into a modular fixturing plate for easy clamping and locating of other tooling and/or fixtures. Every plate has built-in clamping and locating for risers, which allows for quick and accurate setups.

A Quintus quick-change riser, designed to get a part up from the machine table, allows five-side part access. The Quintus combines the riser, quick-change capability, and precise location in one unit. A range of fixture plates or vises is easily mounted on top of the Quintus.Carr Lane Manufacturing Co., 4200 Carr Lane Court, Box 191970, St. Louis, MO 63119, (314) 647-6200, www.carrlane.com/pressreleases/cl5-quick-change.cfm
