A working machine comprising a working head (1) having a spindle (10) and which is movable in a xyz working space and further comprising a clamping device (2,3) for clamping pieces (100) to be worked by said machine. The clamping device (2,3) comprises first (21, 31) and second (22,32) clamping means which are movable along a z direction between a first operative position, in which they are in clamping contact with pieces (100) to be worked, and a second non-operative position, in which they are at a distance from said pieces (100), said first (21, 31) and second (22, 32) clamping means being fixed with respect to an xy working plane when in said first operative position and being movable together with said working head (1) in said xy working plane when in said second non-operative position, said first (21, 31) and second (22, 32) clamping means being alternatively moved between said first and second position during a working cycle of said working machine.

Exemplary accessories for use with woodworking supports of woodworking devices may include a first number of locks actuatable by a second number of actuators, the second number being less than the first number. An exemplary actuator is a cam type actuator.

A vibration suppression method and a machine processing system for properly suppressing vibration of a workpiece during processing, by which it is not necessary that a fixing jig for a workpiece be provided with a special device. A robot has a movable section and a gripping section such as a hand attached to a front end of the movable section. The gripping section is configured to grip a portion of the workpiece, which is different from a part of the workpiece held by the fixing jig, during machining of the workpiece by a machine tool. By holding the workpiece by using the robot during the machining of the workpiece, the workpiece can be prevented from being deformed by a machining reaction force, whereby vibration generated during the machining can be limited.

A drilling machine tool with a cooling liquid purifying and recycling mechanism. The drilling machine tool comprises a platform in which a blanking hole is formed, wherein air cylinders are fixedly mounted at the top of a transverse plate located above the platform, a lifting plate is mounted after the output shaft ends of the air cylinders penetrate through the transverse plate, an isolation cylinder is arranged below the lifting plate, an opening is formed in the bottom of the isolation cylinder, the bottom end of the vertical shaft slidably penetrates through the isolation cylinder and is fixedly provided with a drill bit, the isolation cylinder is connected with the lifting plate through pressing mechanisms, and a cooling liquid conveying mechanism communicating with the interior of the isolation cylinder is arranged on the platform; and a cooling liquid purifying and recycling mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the platform.

A lift and clamp system for an electronic component includes a table for supporting the electronic component on a top surface thereof. The system also includes a single actuator. The system further includes an actuator plate operatively coupled to the single actuator, wherein the actuator plate is vertically moveable. The system yet further includes a plurality of lift pins extending upwardly from the actuator plate, wherein vertical movement of the actuator plate vertically adjusts the vertical position of the electronic component supported on at least one of the plurality of lift pins, wherein vertical movement of the actuator plate selectively clamps and unclamps the electronic component to the table.

A clamp apparatus includes a main frame, at least one table attachment bracket, a pair of adjustable clamping members, at least one measurement member, at least one vice attachment bracket, a catch tray and a shield member. The clamp apparatus preferably attaches to any existing drill press table, offers multiple clamping solutions for a work piece and provides a stable tabletop for the work piece.

Apparatus and methods thereof used to clamp and secure workpieces of varying shapes and dimensions into position for welding, machining, and other fabrication activities. A plurality of opposing clamping assemblies attached to the clamping table operate to move and orient separate workpieces into a desired assembly position. The oriented workpieces are then clamped and held in a fixed position for welding, machining, or other fabrication activities.
