EROWA UPC

Very precise and extremely robust

With a repeatability of two thousandths millimeters, the precision of the EROWA UPC (Universal Power Chuck) palletizing system leaves nothing to be desired. Whether to palletize large workpieces on milling machines or to machine small workpieces on vertical eroding machines; the UPC palletizing system is suitable for flexible use.

Short set-up times with flexible clamping devices: UPC grid pallet with two EROWA ClampSet vices.

THE FACTS

• Blow-off Z-supporting surfaces. • Pallets 4 x 90° indexable. • Repeatability < 0.002 mm. • Sturdy centering segments with patented preload. • Integrable ITS chuck in the center (optional). • Four fixed mounted clamping spigots that are used also as supports in the pallet storage. • Cost-effective aluminum pallets with hardened-Z-supports as a basis for any set-ups. • Cost-effective centering segments to build customized pallets.

The low installation height of the UPC palletizing system allows plenty of space for workpieces.

The widely spaced support surfaces of the UPC chuck make the palletizing system extremely tilt-proof. The pallet is pre-centered with chucking spigots. Then four robust centering segments take over to ensure precise positioning in the pallet and chuck. Compressed air is used for opening and cleaning. The closure generates a pull-down force of 50,000 N.

The UPC chuck with the integrated ITS chuck ensures seamless integration of EROWA ITS 50 or ITS 100 workpiece carrier in the UPC system. This combination enables the flexible use of the clamping system depending on the part size.

Vices, gauges and fixtures are mounted on the UPC pallet. We will be happy to advise you on customized fixture solutions as well.

The UPC palletizing system is the interface between the manufacturing machine and the workpiece for various machining technologies such as: milling, grinding, drilling, and measuring machines. Changeover takes just a few steps and then production can continue. The chucking spigots and centering segments ensure powerful and precise positioning of the UPC pallets. The UPC palletizing system is consistently automatable. The chucks are completely sealed against ingress of coolant and chips. The contact surfaces are cleaned automatically and thoroughly with air.
