for everyday questions in manufacturing

Zero point clamping systems for CNC machines are on everyone's lips and have become indispensable in modern manufacturing processes. But what exactly is a zero point clamping system and what types are available? Our Wiki section explains this and gives you an understanding of what characterizes the zero point clamping system from LANG Technik in particular.

Our "Wiki" column deals with terms and definitions relating to LANG Technik products and their areas of application. Today explained in a simple way: The centering vise. How can it be described, where is it used and what types of centering vises does LANG Technik offer in its product range.

It is now well known that zero point clamping systems reduce set-up times and thus increase machine running times. What all good zero point clamping systems today have in common is high precision and holding forces. However, this does not necessarily make it easier for a potential customer, because he has to choose from a large number of possible systems. It therefore makes sense to look at other important aspects in order to be able to decide without any doubts. But apart from the two rather technically oriented metrics, what are the decisive aspects that turn a good into a very good one zero point clamping system?

Space is a valuable asset - not only home builders know that, but above all industrial companies. Because if you want to grow, you also need the space for automation systems and the like. We at LANG present your options here. You can look forward to a blog with ideas on how you too can drive automation forward in your facility. Even when space is limited.

It's quite simple: Where state-of-the-art automation and established manufacturing technologies meet, potential for greater efficiency is created. Provided you do everything right - because not all automation is the same. Our detailed blog article explains where automation opens up opportunities for companies in machining and which stumbling blocks threaten implementation. Read what you need to pay attention to and what role your staff plays in the development of an individual automation strategy.
