KSG-5A
10.1
Function
Due to the higher tension, the workpiece can be better processed on a 5-axis machine.
When clamping with high force, the clamping force is reduced by approx. 40% due to
increased friction forces in the spindle nut.
This loss of grip can largely be compensated for by using "grip" stepped jaws.

Servicing, cleaning, maintenance
See page 37
10.3
Troubleshooting, eliminating faults
See pages 38 and 39
10.4
Removing and replacing parts
The KSG-5A system is compatible with all standard KSG vices with the same jaw width.
The installation of the fixed 5A support jaw can be reversed by simply changing jaws (see
page 35).

Important:
To change the KSG-TA to KSG standard, a spindle nut is Required (pos. 40).
