In additive manufacturing, the right clamping technology determines quality, precision and productivity. Whether for the mechanical machining of castings, additive manufacturing of prototypes or 3D printing post-processing – conventional clamping solutions quickly reach their limits. Rigid construction panels, long set-up times and manual clamping processes slow down modern production processes.

AMF offers a consistent solution for this: innovative clamping systems for additive manufacturing that can be perfectly integrated into existing CNC and automation environments. The result: precise workpiece clamping in additive manufacturing, reduced set-up times and maximum repetition accuracy – from 3D printing to finish-machining.

With the segmented substrate plate from AMF, additively manufactured components can be selectively removed, precisely positioned and directly processed further – without reclamping or manual intervention. The compact design allows complete 5-sided machining directly on the build platform, without disruptive superstructures or additional clamping surfaces. 

Fastening without screws via zero-point pull-studs ensures secure and fixing with repeat accuracy – ideal for additive post-processing on CNC machines. The system guarantees workpiece clamping for additive manufacturing that is both fast and reliable.

The modular structure and the zero-point clamping system for small batches mean that the clamping system can be easily integrated into existing machine suites. AMF enables maximum precision with a repetition accuracy of less than 5 µm – from high-volume additive manufacturing to individual prototype production.

The AMF free-form clamping system has been specially developed for post-processing of complex geometries. Whether for milling additively manufactured components, machining castings or prototyping in machine building – the system impresses with maximum adaptability and precision.

Any clamping situation can be customized based on a construction kit system consisting of over 100 components. Pressure and cross sliders, support and clamping elements enable clamping in different axial directions – ideal for 5-sided machining without interfering contours. Thanks to automatic pre-fixing and available CAD data, every set-up procedure offers repetition accuracy, time savings and reliability. In this way, you can reduce set-up times, increase machine running times and significantly boost your productivity.
