In automated processes, loading and positioning of workpieces on portal measuring machines or rotary tables often proves to be a bottleneck. With the unmanned, self-navigating shuttle system Witte Scooter, Witte Barskamp KG is now presenting a solution to close this automation gap.
Soft and sensitive plastic caps, such as those required for detergent bottles, are difficult to measure, because repeatable clamping of such flexible plastic parts requires special solutions. Witte Barskamp KG has now presented one of these: a vacuum clamping device with a dedicated positioning template.
Vacuum clamping chucks from Witte have proven their value in many areas of electronics and semiconductor technology and stand for precise, fast and gentle clamping. The product range has expanded to include a new expert solution with a vacuum chuck especially for checking several SD cards at the same time.
Saving weight and optimizing handling are essential parameters in fixture design and measuring technology. With the ALUFIX lightweight plates made entirely of aluminum, Witte Barskamp KG creates the basis for optimized and accelerated processes.
Witte has further improved its vacuum base for measuring arms and measuring devices, which has been in use in quality departments around the World for years. Optimized and newly developed control elements make the system even more user-friendly and powerful.
The German specialist for clamping systems and fixture design, Witte Barskamp KG, has developed an automatic liquid separator for vacuum clamping systems. Its innovative two-chamber system with a total chamber volume of 18 liters allows emptying without interrupting the vacuum cycle.
Witte Barskamp KG further develops its concept of vacuum plates by an additional intelligent system solution: modular increasing of the clamping surface simply by connecting chucks using a quick connector. A required clamping surface size can now easily and quickly be achieved by simply lining up and connecting vacuum plates of the same product line.
Witte Barskamp KG is presenting an improved modular vacuum unit with a suction capacity of 16 m³ per hour. In addition to a robust pump for generating the ultimate vacuum of up to two hectopascals, the main features of the universally applicable unit are the large-volume reservoir with integrated liquid separation and the compact design.
Witte Barskamp KG, the leading German provider of clamping technology and fixture building, is continuously expanding its range of FixBase plates and positioning systems in sandwich style design.
With the freeze clamping technology ICE-VICE, Witte opens up the equally efficient and effective possibility of fixing sensitive as well as small and very small components accurately and tension-free. The only energy source required for this is the user‘s own in-house compressed air.
