In this example, the Mechanical Expansion Arbor is accommodated in a quick-change chuck in order to make the production process highly flexible. The change of expansion tools is therefore fast, easy and highly precise. The mechanical expansion arbor is actuated directly via the machine hydraulics to clamp the component. In addition, a workpiece air system control is integrated to check the component presence. In addition, a workpiece air system control is integrated to check the component presence. Due to the planar tightening of the component against the workpiece contact surface generated during mechanical clamping, a very high clamping rigidity is achieved.
