Frequently asked questions
-
Do I need a stamping station?
Yes, to stamp a defined holding contour in the workpiece in just a few seconds and to transfer the high stamping forces.
-
What pressure is needed for stamping?
This depends on the material. You will quickly get the hang of this after just a few tests.
-
How can I see whether the stamping is deep enough?
Below the actual stamping tooth there is a stopper tooth. As a rule, this stopper tooth leaves a slight imprint below the stamping tooth. If this slight imprint is present, then stamping is deep enough.
-
Which materials can be stamped?
Unalloyed steel, case-hardened steel, tempering steel, cast iron, aluminium and plastics, high-alloy materials with special stamping jaws, but no rubber or chalky materials.
-
Does stamping deform the part?
The workpieces are only slightly deformed as the stamping pressure is adapted to the material.
-
Will I find the stamping when I insert my workpieces?
Every machine operator will be able to position the workpieces absolutely safely after only a few minutes.
-
Is scrubbing possible with the inogripĀ® jaws?
Certainly! Stamping creates a positive fit with far higher clamping forces than conventional gripper jaws.
