Clamping Technology

Zimmer Group's clamping technology covers pneumatic and hydraulic clamping cylinders, swing clamps, pull-down clamps, and modular workholding systems for CNC machining centers, presses, and automated fixturing systems. Products are engineered to provide high clamping forces in compact form factors suitable for densely packed machine tool fixtures. Clamping modules integrate with pallet systems and zero-point clamping interfaces to enable fast workpiece changeover on machining centers, reducing setup time and improving spindle utilization.
