Designing custom clamping jaws is really complex simple.

The challenge

Designing CNC clamping jaws is difficult because every workpiece has unique geometry. Jaws must grip firmly without damage, allow tool access, and stay rigid under load. Even small design errors can cause misalignment, chatter, or slippage.

Design automation

Design automation captures expert knowledge and applies it consistently across every design. Complex steps are simplified, repetitive work is removed, and fit and function are maintained throughout the process. The result is faster, more reliable output and the ability for anyone to contribute without CAD skills.

The result

Design becomes faster, more consistent, and more reliable. Teams can generate ready-to-use jaws in minutes instead of hours, without CAD skills, resulting in smoother machining and better efficiency on the shop floor.
