Magnetic Clamping for Grinding

Precision in workpiece clamping

Maximum accuracy with distortion-free clamping

In precision grinding, microns mostly determine the quality of the final product. Conventional mechanical clamping devices are often pushed to their limits, as they apply localized pressure, causing deformation or unwanted vibrations. Magnetic chucks from BRISC minimize these sources of error through uniform force distribution across the entire contact surface of the workpiece.

This not only guarantees the highest degree of surface parallelism but also reduces process-induced vibrations through stable, full-surface contact. The result is a mirror-like finish without chatter marks, while significantly extending the service life of the grinding wheels. Whether flat or profile grinding: Our magnetic clamping technology enables distortion-free clamping and ensures consistent manufacturing quality in every cycle across various industries.

Drastic Reduction in Setup Times

When grinding small batches or workpieces with frequently varying geometries, time is a critical factor. Our magnetic clamping technology enables workpiece changes in a matter of seconds – without the time-consuming handling of mechanical clamping devices and vises. By eliminating interfering clamps, you also make more efficient use of the available clamping area, thereby significantly increasing your daily output.

Superior surface finishes without chatter marks

The secure full-surface contact between the workpiece and the clamping device inherently dampens vibrations throughout the entire grinding process. This prevents chatter marks and ensures a consistently high surface finish even at high feed rates.

Process reliability with electro-permanent technology

Our electro-permanent systems offer a high degree of reliability. The magnetic force is activated by a short electrical pulse and then retains its magnetic holding force, even in the event of a power outage. Since no continuous current flows during machining, no heat is generated within the clamping device. This minimizes thermal drift and maintains maximum dimensional accuracy throughout extended grinding cycles.
