European clamping manufacturer AMF of Germany has decided to use extra strong and corrosion-resistant screws from BUMAX for its zero-point clamping systems.
It is BUMAX extra strength fastener model 109 in both Standard and Ultra grades that AMF has now ordered to enhance precise zero-point clamping solutions used in milling processes and turning centers to enable fixture and workpiece changes within seconds.
AMF’s revolutionary Zero-Point-System has highly precise clamping modules with high draw-in, locking and holding forces to ensure perfect clamping in the widest range of applications. AMF previously used carbon steel screws for its clamping products but the company required a more durable fastener solution.
BUMAX 109 and BUMAX 109 Ultra screws were chosen to further enhance AMF’s system and to provide end-users with the highest level of quality, accuracy and operational safety.
These premium fasteners provide better corrosion resistance and strength in demanding applications.
AMF ordered both BUMAX 109 and the super strength BUMAX 109 Ultra since a particular headcap was needed that can only be manufactured in the BUMAX Ultra grade.
