As manufacturing continues to evolve toward larger workpieces, higher automation, and integrated multi-process machining, the demand for high-rigidity and high-precision workholding solutions is increasing across industries.
AUTOGRIP proudly introduces the new IS-500 Automatic Index Chuck, a high-performance solution specifically developed for large workpiece applications and multi-side machining requirements.
Designed to perform precise indexing during spindle rotation, the IS-500 helps reduce idle time, improve machining efficiency, and optimize production workflows for manufacturers seeking higher productivity and process stability.
Built for Large Workpieces and Demanding Machining Conditions
The IS-500 is engineered to support stable clamping performance under heavy-duty machining environments.
- 4×90° indexing capability for multi-side machining.
- Maximum clamping force up to 45.7 kN.
- Workpiece capacity up to Ø220 mm.
- High-rigidity structure for large and heavy components.
- Built-in pressure detection for clamping safety monitoring
By enabling indexing during spindle rotation, the IS-500 significantly reduces repositioning time and minimizes setup interruptions, helping manufacturers improve machining cycle efficiency.
Precision Manufacturing from Material to Final Assembly
Manufactured in Taiwan, the IS-500 reflects AUTOGRIP’s commitment to precision engineering and production quality.
Premium Material Selection
Critical components are manufactured using high-strength alloy steel to ensure structural stability under high clamping loads.
Heat Treatment & Hardening
Internal sliding and transmission parts undergo strict hardening treatment to improve wear resistance and extend service life.
Precision Grinding
Key mating surfaces are precision-ground to ensure smooth actuation and stable indexing accuracy.
Optimized Lubrication Design
An optimized internal lubrication system helps reduce component wear and maintain long-term operating reliability.
Strict Quality Inspection for Reliable Performance
Every IS-500 undergoes comprehensive inspection before shipment, including:
- Clamping force verification.
- Indexing repeatability inspection.
- Dynamic balancing and rotation testing.
- Waterproof and chip protection testing
These inspection processes ensure consistent product performance in demanding machining environments.
Supporting Smarter Manufacturing
The IS-500 is ideal for industries requiring efficient machining of large and complex components, including :
- Automotive – steering joints, transmission components.
- Energy – valves, fittings, pipe components.
- Heavy machinery – large structural and mechanical parts.
- Automation systems – unmanned production lines with robotic integration.
By reducing non-cutting time and supporting multi-side machining in a single setup, the IS-500 provides manufacturers with a more efficient and reliable workholding solution.
