Swivel and adapter plate

Function
9.1
Slanted and curved items can be securely clamped with 4-point clamping using the swivel plate
system.
The swivel plate is pulled downwards during the clamping process due to its conical swivel plate
bearings; this means that the swivel plate is not likely to lift off.
With the 6-fold reversible jaw it is possible to cover numerous clamping solutions in a straight-
forward way. A total of six different clamping sides are available, at the four sides of the jaw as
well as at two places with a convex "grip" profile.
It is also possible to carry out two-sided processing using the tungsten carbide coated side of the
6-fold reversible jaw.
Processing the first side
For raw part clamping using the 6-fold reversible jaw, five different "grip" clamping sides are
available with a clamping depth of 3, 8 and 18 mm.
Processing the second side
Clamping with the tungsten carbide coated side of the 6-fold reversible jaw.
It is important to take into account that during the first clamping process, the 6-fold reversible
jaws can yield slightly until the play in the peg seating is eliminated.
The workpiece position must be measured; the zero point should not be determined until after
3 to 5 power clampings.
Important:
Max. 3° rotating.
Handling the demounted swivel plate
When handling the swivel plate, it should not be turned upside down as the peg fall out.
Servicing, cleaning, maintenance
9.2
The upper shoulder of the swivel peg must be greased regularly.
Troubleshooting, eliminating faults
9.3
Swivel plate is difficult to turn
Disconnect the swivel plate and push the swivel peg from below out of the swivel plate.
Check the jaw fixing and swivel plate surface for indentations or deformations. If necessary,
re-grind the plate and the jaw fixing.
Check the peg for soiling.
Lubricate the entire system with grease and reassemble.
Swivel plate wobbles
Check whether marking (R) on the swivel peg and the swivel plate points outside.
If not, turn swivel plate / swivel peg.
