The clamping system ALUMESS.maxx

is mainly designed for the universal and flexible use on tactile coordinate measuring machines (CMMs)
Further areas of use are the production of samples and prototypes, the laser inscription and the laser processing or as a mounting device.

The clamping system is suitable for pallet automation.

The pallets, plates, angle plates and rails have consistent grid holes and mounting threads. An extensive range of positioning, stop and support elements enable a reproducible construction of any clamping fixture.

Thanks to the maximal reproducibility of the devices only specific constructed elements have to be stored for re-use.

Our ALUMESS catalogue offers a wide-range of basic elements, support and positioning elements, clamping elements and accessories.
