01e) Grippex Mini Bar Puller 0 - 38mm VDI20 Shank

Grippex Mini Bar Puller 0 - 38mm Capacity VDI20 Shank

The Bar Puller that makes your CNC-Lathe more effective, right away!

For various reasons, such as high costs or limited floor space in work shops, only a small percentage of the CNC-Lathes are equipped with some kind of magazine-type barfeeder.

In small batch production, however, the machine spindle itself, in addition with its inserted guiding tube and Grippex, provides you with a simple and highly efficient Bar-Feeder.

Grippex Advantages:

Instant setup – gripping is secured without any adjustment within the whole gripping range

Compact & light – adjacent turret tool positions need not be vacated

Powerful – stands high pressure (no need for a pressure reduction valve)

Grippex doesn’t need high pressure – it works from 0.5 bar upwards

Can work with coolant or air pressure.

Clamps very close to the chuck, allowing for short overhang of the bar.

Clamps hexagon bars without need for spindle orientation

Can also be used as a Pick-up unit with ‘robot’ jaws

Here's how it works!
