CNC Applications Solved

In CNC machining, the pursuit of perfection is endless. Every micron counts, every second saved is crucial to bottom-line profitability, and every setup must be perfect. While attention often focuses on the CNC machine itself, it's often the unseen yet ingeniously designed workholding and positioning components that truly impact productivity. At Mocayo, we offer solutions to your most common and critical CNC challenges. Indexing plungers and ball locking pins are key to achieving ultimate precision and efficiency.

Indexing Plungers:

Indexing plungers are spring-loaded devices with precision-ground tips that engage with corresponding holes or dowel pins. Our indexing plungers are constructed of stainless steel, ensuring excellent wear resistance and long service life, even in harsh machining environments. We offer a variety of body styles, thread sizes, and spring forces to meet your specific application load requirements.

Ball Locking Pins:

Ball locking pins utilize a series of precision balls to lock into place. Pressing a button on the handle retracts the balls, allowing the pin to be freely inserted or withdrawn. When released, the balls expand outward, locking securely into the hole. They enable the replacement of entire fixtures, vises, or pallets in seconds. Simply press a button on the handle, extract the pin, replace the assembly, and reinsert it. Our ball locking pins feature a high-shear-strength design, providing the rigid clamping force required for heavy-duty machining operations. They withstand continuous cycling and are available in a variety of diameters and lengths to handle a wide range of jobs, from light to heavy.
