The MT-S achieves a fully automatic workpiece change during the machining process on a machine tool. It is changed from the tool magazine of the milling machine and enables workpiece handling between the part storage and the clamping device. It is actuated by means of compressed air, which is routed through the machine spindle. The gripper closes pneumatically and opening takes place by means of spring force. The integrated spring-loaded CX counterbalance function protects the tool, machine spindle and workpiece, and compensates for tolerances and unevenness.

• The counterbalance function (Z: 5 mm, C:+/-3º) ensures that all components are optimally protected and provides compensation for tolerances and unevenness
• The gripping force can be easily adjusted using the pressure control valve and thereby adapted to the relevant requirements of the workpieces
• Easily exchangeable gripper inserts for handling various workpiece geometries
• Easy implementation of unmanned shifts, which means greater machine utilization and more flexibility
• Tremendous reduction of set-up times for smaller to medium-sized batches
