Pyramid Risers Permit Multi-Part Load



Jergens three- and four-sided pyramid risers permit multi-part load and provide greater access for 5-axis machining applications.

Jergens Inc. has announced its new three- and four-sided pyramid risers that permit multi-part load and provide greater access for 5-axis machining applications. Part of the Fixture-Pro line of quick-change modular workholding solutions, Jergens pyramids feature a 30° mounting surface to help ensure maximum clearance for spindle and cutting tool paths, resulting in more machining per set-up.

The engineered solutions offer three versatile mounting options. Direct-to-table uses T-slots, center pin and timing key and is secured using T nuts and socket head cap screws (SHCS). QLS accurately locates and clamps the pyramid to a base element, such as a subplate, using a combination of QLS shoulder screws and SHCS. Quick-Loc pallet systems use pull studs (spaced at the industry-standard 96 mm pattern) to locate and clamp in a single step.

"The lightweight aluminum risers are compatible with virtually all 5-axis CNC machining centers and ensure the fastest changeover and set-up times possible. Available in both three-position and four-position configurations, Jergens pyramid risers mate with many top tooling choices including self-centering vises, dovetail vises and ER collet fixtures," said a company spokesperson.
