MAGNOS magnetic clamp systems include a complete line of permanent and electro-permanent grinding and EDM magnets, bipolar magnets for holding round bars to cut keyways, and whip stocks or radial magnets for holding rings, as well as other magnets for special applications.
With MAGNOS, SCHUNK relies on the technology of electro-permanent magnets, which require only a short pulse of electricity to activate and deactivate the magnetic field. A uniform clamping force is possible thanks to the poles' quadratic geometry. Reliable clamping, even during rough machining, is ensured by the high holding forces of the magnets. Different pole sizes of 32mm, 50mm, 75mm and 100mm are available, enabling the holding forces to be tailored to individual requirements.
MAGNOS magnetic chucks with square pole technology have proved their work thousands of times. They represent unique quality, maximum clamping force, and the highest possible flexibility in the field of clamping. Electropermanent magnetic clamping technology by SCHUNK is suitable for a wide range of industries. MAGNOS enables you to quickly and safely clamp large or small workpieces made of unalloyed or alloyed steels. MAGNOS can be used easily on all common milling and machining centers.
When combined with the SCHUNK UNILOCK quick-change pallet system, the magnetic clamping plates can be equipped with the UNILOCK clamping pins.
