Advancing Milling Technology
The Minimaster Plus advanced features tackle the most demanding milling applications in steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, and other difficult-to-machine materials.

The most notable feature on the Minimaster Plus is the high-precision interface between the replaceable carbide insert and the steel shank. The insert has an internal thread and external taper, while the shank has an internal taper with a threaded center pin for added reliability and stability, as well as minimized runout.

Additionally, an axial stop on the shank increases repeatability and productivity by allowing endusers to replace an insert without having to remove the tool from machine spindles, and then repositions axially within 25µ.

Modular Lightweight Gripper
Designed according to the modular principle, the LEG gripper can be equipped with a pneumatic and electric drive, while the user is able to choose the desired servo motor. Due to the options, the robot manufacturer can use their own motors and control the gripper with the same set of commands as the robot. In addition, the applicable forces are measurable and controllable with servo-electric drives. If the LEG is operates with a single servo motor, both drive spindles are coupled and the fingers move synchronously. With the use of two motors, on the other hand, the fingers may move to any position in the gripping range, independently of each other.
