ID Clamping
For workpieces which require clamping internal diameters (ID), we offer suitable solutions based on the application. Depending on geometry and size of the workpiece, we provide many options such as a segmented collets, expanding bushings or centering discs. ID clamping systems are available mechanically or hydraulically actuated, or as a combination of both.
Modular Components
Gleason‘s modular workholding system is designed with standardized components to achieve high flexibility and fast availability. Available for internal, external and between-center clamping, with or without quick change interface.
ID Quick-Change Clamping Systems
ID clamping systems are also available as Quik-Flex® Plus quick change system, which offers the additional benefit of being able to changeover quickly while maintaining a high level of accuracy.
Uni-Spand and X-Pandisk
In addition to standard ID clamping, we offer ID clamping systems using Uni-Spand® and X-Pandisk® springs which are mainly used to center and clamp workpieces with larger bores while offering the same precision and accuracy as regular ID clamping systems. These workholding systems feature a very low profile, making them a particularly good clamping option for blind bores or bores that only provide a limited contact area.
Always the Right Solution
We design and manufacture workholding systems to customers' unique production and quality requirements based on decades of experience in the field of gear manufacturing and clamping technology. Gleason workholding systems are ideal suited for both gears and non-gear applications across machines of many different manufacturers.
