Why is lubrication important for clamping jaws, chucks, and tool holders?
In machine tools, clamping systems are essential to ensure machining precision and process safety. These components operate under extreme conditions: high pressures, dynamic loads, and repetitive cycles.
Poor lubrication can lead to:
- Premature wear and reduced service life.
- Loss of clamping force, affecting part quality.
- Corrosion and seizure, increasing maintenance costs.
- Unplanned downtime, reducing productivity.
