EP-Grind Series, No Thermal Deformation
The EP-Grind Series represents the pinnacle of magnetic workholding technology for surface grinders.
It uses Electro-Permanent (EP) technology.
Combines the safety of permanent magnets with the ease of automation found in electromagnets.
Standard electromagnetic chucks require continuous electricity (and generate heat).
But this EP chuck only uses a quick pulse of electricity to activate.
Once clamped, it holds the workpiece indefinitely with zero energy consumption and zero heat generation.
Key Technical Advantages
Absolute Thermal Stability:
There is no continuous current flowing through coils.
So, the chuck remains at ambient temperature.
This eliminates “thermal expansion” of the chuck face.
Ensure your workpiece remains perfectly flat and parallel.
Even during long grinding cycles.
Fail-Safe Reliability:
Safety is built into the physics of the magnet.
In the event of a sudden power outage or cable failure, the holding force does not drop.
The workpiece remains securely clamped (>12 kgf/cm2).
Prevent dangerous accidents and scrapped parts.
High Precision Pitch:
Available in Standard or Micro-Pitch configurations.
They can securely hold everything from large steel plates to small, thin washers.
Why choose EP over Electromagnetic?
The “Cold” Advantage:
If you are grinding to micron-level tolerances, heat is your enemy.
Standard electromagnets get warm.
Cause the workpiece to bow slightly.
The EP-Grind series stays “Cold”.
Make it the only choice for ultra-high-precision toolroom grinding.
Standard Supply:
1). 1x EP-Grind Magnetic Chuck
