LMC Workholding now offers face drivers and live centers from Tecnologie FRB, a company which designs and manufactures products incorporating advanced technology in turning, gear cutting and grinding.
The FRB face drivers feature a mechanical compensating system, which is said to be highly adjustable and reliable in the most difficult conditions. Work positioning is maintained with optimal repeatability. The use of centers with slots also enables turning of pipe or other workpieces with holes in the end.
The live centers offer exclusive axial load distribution, allowing for higher feed rates and deeper cuts. A very high live center thrust can also be applied to the process.
LMC makes all types of workholding with a heavy emphasis currently on rotational workholding and aluminum wheel manufacturing systems.
