Amrok tombstones are made to fit HMCs or other CNC machines with edge locating, hardened and ground wear pads, center locating or mounting holes. Manufacturer Advanced Machine&Engineering offers the tombstones with plain faces, hole-grid patterns with precision bushings and threaded inserts, precision T-slots, or in other custom configurations to accommodate customer specifications. All tombstones and plates are stress-relieved.
The tombstones are available in steel, cast iron, aluminum and epoxy-mineral. According to the company, epoxy mineral tombstones can provide better vibration damping than aluminum or cast iron, and they are useful for high speed machining centers, for which weight and accuracy are crucial factors. The tombstones are available in various configurations, including cubes, double-angle, single-angle, octagon, hexagon and more.
