Common goals → Typical NextasTech setup
Fast changeovers & pallet pools: Combine Zero‑Point Systems with the Pneumatic Zero‑Point Plate and an Automatic Pallet Changer.
5‑axis access in one setup: Use a Self‑Centering Vise on a Zero‑Point Clamping Plate (or a Dovetail Fixture for maximum tool clearance).
High‑volume stability: Standardize with a Customized Hydraulic Fixture and a dedicated chuck (E‑Series / R‑Series).
Delicate small parts: Choose a Pneumatic Vise for consistent clamping force and repeatable positioning.
Modular prototyping: Start with Rapid Prototyping tooling on a quick‑change base to iterate fast.
Repeatability across machines: Adopt shared reference pallets and zero‑point positioning to move jobs between VMC/HMC cells without re‑indicating.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the repeatability of your zero-point systems?
We guarantee a repeatability of ±0.002 mm. All products are verified on certified CMM equipment before shipment to ensure consistent quality for every part.
What materials are your core components made from and what is their hardness?
Our core components, such as clamping pins and receivers, are crafted from high-hardenability alloy steel. They undergo a proprietary heat treatment process to achieve a surface hardness of HRC 58-62, ensuring exceptional wear resistance and long-term stability.
How does the self-cleaning function work in your automation chucks?
Our automation chucks feature integrated air-blast channels. During the un-clamping sequence, a high-pressure air blast is directed at the mating surfaces (tapered pins and receivers) to clear away chips, coolant, and other debris. This ensures a clean and precise connection for the next pallet, which is critical for maintaining repeatability in automated cells.
Do you offer customized workholding solutions for unique applications?
Absolutely. While we offer a comprehensive standard product line, our engineering team specializes in developing custom solutions. We can design and manufacture bespoke fixtures, pallets, and clamping systems tailored to your specific workpiece geometry, machine specifications, and production goals. Contact us to discuss your project.
For 5-axis machining of thin-walled or delicate parts, what workholding do you recommend?
For delicate or thin-walled components where distortion is a concern, we highly recommend our Dovetail Fixtures. They provide exceptional clamping force with minimal material engagement (e.g., a 3mm dovetail) on the raw stock. This low-profile clamping allows for maximum tool access (5-side machining) while applying clamping forces in a direction that minimizes part deformation, ensuring high precision and stability.
How does your Self-Centering Vise maintain accuracy over time?
Our self-centering vises achieve high precision (centering accuracy of ±0.005mm) through a hardened and precision-ground leadscrew and nut system. More importantly, they feature an adjustable backlash-free nut design. This allows for compensation of any potential wear over years of use, enabling the vise to be recalibrated back to its original high accuracy, ensuring a long and precise service life.
