Work-holding devices are the essential components of any machining operation, as they secure the workpiece in place during cutting, milling, drilling, or other processes. Their significance lies in:
The primary role of work-holding devices in cutting tools is to maintain the workpiece’s position and orientation during machining. This function is critical for achieving accurate results and meeting tight tolerances. Without proper work holding, the cutting tool may not engage with the workpiece consistently, leading to imprecise cuts, surface finish issues, and scrap parts.

Contrasted marking obtained by making color appear on the lower layer. Can be done on all kinds of plastics with a plastic laser engraver. Color and material removal marking is mainly used in coated materials. The existing color, coating and surface layers are partially removed and the base material becomes visible. The layers to be removed absorb the laser light, the material heats up and vaporizes at the affected areas. As the surface layer and the protruding base material have different colors or the base material is often backlit, the marking becomes clear and visible.

Cutting tools are an indispensable part of machining processes, used in a wide range of industries, from manufacturing to automotive and aerospace. However, the effectiveness of cutting tools largely depends on the precision and stability with which the workpiece is held in place during the machining process. This is where work-holding devices come into play. In this blog post, we will be exploring work holding devices in cutting tools and their significance, their types, and their crucial role in achieving accurate and efficient machining operations.

This engraving effect creates a non-contrasted marking. Can be done on all kinds of plastics. When engraving by laser marking, the material is removed from the surface of the component to be processed. The beam penetrates the surface and removes it. In the case of transparent materials, as the material is simultaneously heated and reacts with the ambient air, discoloration often occurs in the engraving areas. This is a shadow effect in the depression, which depends on the transparency of the laser light and the penetration depth of the laser radiation.

The structure of the individual molecules or additives, such as color pigments, are directly changed or destroyed through laser marking. A change in color or bleaching is then visible on the material, creating a marking. The coloring is lighter or darker depending on the composition: darker plastics fade to white/beige in the marked areas, while lighter plastics fade to grey or black. The surface stays smooth, but this can be done only in specific plastics.
