RAKU® TOOL WB-1700: Maximum Precision, Minimal Setup Time.
A New System for Faster Setups and Leaner Processes
eveloped in collaboration with Reutlingen University, this innovative clamping system is designed to streamline production workflows by reducing setup times and simplifying processes.
Manufactured from our high-precision RAKU® TOOL WB-1700 board material, the system offers exceptional dimensional accuracy and stability. These properties make it the go-to solution for reliable, repeat-precision performance in CNC machining and automated production environments – perfect for anyone looking to boost both efficiency and process reliability.
By the way: Reutlingen University has also recently opened its innovation center, TEXOVERSUM – an exciting space for the future of textile technologies.
Bringing technology to life and making innovation tangible – that’s the connection between our new clamping system and TEXOVERSUM. Both stand for the commitment to combine precision with future-focused thinking.
