Kitagawa-Northtech’s KSB soft jaw series is designed to increase productivity. The soft jaws range in size from 3" × 1.25" × 1.25" to 7" × 2.5" × 4.5". Two- and three-jaw sets are available, and special sizes and configurations can be manufactured to customer specifications.

Automotive dies and die inserts are often complex, one-off parts with little room for error. Integrity Tool's investments in modular workholding tools and 3D optical scanning have allowed the company to create niche capabilities for its CNC machined parts.
