If you’re manufacturing high-tech machined medical components, Jergens can help you do it faster, without sacrificing precision and accuracy.
- Are your lot sizes small when products are still in development?
- Are geometries becoming increasingly complex?
- Do you need to be able to accommodate short lead times to stay competitive?
- Are tolerances extremely tight?
- Are you mixing production and prototype jobs?
Our Ball Lock™ and ZPS quick change fixturing systems will help you recapture downtime and production lost during set up and changeover…with incredible accuracy and repeatability. Our 5-axis workholding solutions help you maximize the benefits of your 5-axis machine and tackle increasingly complex geometries. Jergens also has a full line of production vises, clamping solutions and tooling components to help you get your medical implants and surgical instruments out into the field quickly and profitably.
Featured Products:
The Ball Lock Mounting System is designed to speed the accurate locating and locking of fixture plates to subplates.
