Overview of the global workholding market
The global workholding market research predicts the market to grow at a CAGR of above 5% during the forecast period. Development of economical clamping units is one of the primary workholding market drivers. Constant R&D activities to achieve increased levels of optimization has led to the development of a cost-effective clamping systems suitable for heavy milling operations. This new system will increase the total productivity by easing out the system setups and lessening the idle time. Moreover, these new clamping systems are designed to manage any type of machining needs and can be utilized for machine tools with T-slots and machines holding onto the pallet changer. Additionally, these clamping systems also enable the implementation of existing pallets and fixtures thus enhancing the efficiency and are also economical, which will fuel the growth of the market in next few years.
One of the latest workholding market trends is the emergence of pallet systems for automated workholding changeovers. At the time of machining, it becomes imperative for manufacturers to change the workholdings and top tooling depending on the process without affecting the production times. To cut down on the changeover time, a pallet system was developed by Positrol Workholding. This new system provides quick tooling and workholding replacement solutions without affecting the rigidity. Such advancements will increase the adoption of workholders, in turn, driving the growth of the market.
