Hexagonal Mandrel for Added Process Reliability
January 1, 2024
The MAXXOS mandrel with hexagonal geometry for added process reliability and maximum cutting performance.
HAINBUCH offers a mandrel with hexagonal pyramid shape instead of a round taper, designed with stringent manufacturing requirements and process reliability in mind.
"HAINBUCH has acted in response to demand from specific areas that has been growing year by year," said a company spokesperson. "Users are requesting mandrels that deliver higher performance as well as process reliability. The result is called Maxxos. The segmented clamping bushing with hexagon inside shape fits perfectly onto the clamping pyramid and enables maximum cutting performance. The lubrication, combined with its tightness, ensures a very constant production flow and as a result, achieves maximum reliability."
Due to the hexagonal pyramid clamp, maximum torque transmission can be achieved: up to 155% more transmissible torque and up to 57% higher bending stiffness compared to the classic Mando T211 mandrel. This makes it possible to achieve higher process parameters and consequently improve the yield of finished parts. Greater process reliability is facilitated by the spacious layout between the clamping bushing and the clamping pyramid. Even during the clamping process, this design prevents virtually any dirt getting onto the surfaces. This cuts down the frequency of maintenance times for cleaning and lubrication.
Overall, the mandrel has a clamping diameter range of 18 mm to 100 mm. The clamping areas of each size are designed to overlap. This has the advantage that users can choose from up to three mandrel sizes depending on the clamping diameter. The larger the mandrel is, the greater its stability and rigidity. Smaller mandrels may be able to handle more of the customers smaller workpieces. The aligned, segmented clamping bushings have a minimum concentricity of 0.01 mm and can even be supplied in a high precision version.
