Zero-Point Workholding System
April 1, 2023
"Designed to overcome the complexity and high cost of other zero-point workholding systems, the Royal Z-Lock is a simple, precise and affordable quick-change system that offers high clamping strength," said a Royal Products spokesperson.
The spokesperson continued, "Zero-Point workholding systems provide an effective way to quickly interchange workpieces on machining centers, but until now, many manufacturers have found them to be too complicated and expensive to justify. The Royal Z-Lock overcomes these issues by providing a simple, affordable alternative. Straightforward manual actuation, ultra-precision repeatability and great vibration dampening are just some of the many benefits of Z-Lock."
The Zero-Point workholding system is designed for vertical, horizontal and 5-axis machining centers. Features and benefits:
- Precision receiver mounts to a machining center table or 5-axis rotary table
- Mount workpieces to top plates offline, keeping spindles in the cut for maximum production
- Top plates interchange in seconds with precision and repeatability.
"The Zero-Point workholding system features simple manual actuation," said the spokesperson. "A few turns of a hex key and it is locked, with no risk of the top plate loosening from vibration, spring wear or air/hydraulic failure. The Royal Z-Lock is also easy to implement-no external air or hydraulic lines to install."
The system offers precision repeatability of 0.0001", 0.0001" and 0.00005" (XYZ). It achieves up to 11,240 lbs. (50 kN) of clamping force, and a hardened locking screw contains a large, sturdy engagement surface for failsafe operation.
