Mounting Tooling Plates & Blocks on Pallets

 

JIS Mounting

JIS-type mounting is the most-common way to mount tooling plates and blocks on a machining-center pallet. Here the plate or block is located from two precisely ground reference edges at 90° to each other. The plate or block is pulled against the pallet's edge locators using three socket-head cap screws and also fastened down with four to eight socket-head cap screws, depending on the size. Swivel Hoist Rings are recommended for lifting tooling blocks and large tooling plates.

DIN Mounting

Most of our modular tooling plates and blocks also incorporate DIN-mounting capability. Here the plate or block is located using a center hole, and oriented using a radial hole. Two Pallet Fixture Keys, a center pin and a radial pin, are required. The plate or block is fastened down with four to eight socket-head cap screws, depending on the size.
