Innovations at a Glance
STARK.spheric – distortion-free clamping now with height compensation
A trade fair premiere for the aerospace and large-part sectors. The system is designed for distortion-free clamping of large and complex workpieces. In the machining of large components, it is regarded as a game-changer because it compensates for internal stresses during material removal in a controlled manner.
The innovative compensation mechanism is now available not only for the X and Y axes: in addition to pendulum compensation of ± 5° and length compensation of ± 1.5 mm, height compensation of ± 2.5 mm is now integrated into the Z-axis.

HILMA.ASH 125 – long-stroke clamp with sensors and IO-Link
The second innovation is the HILMA.ASH hydraulic long-stroke vise, now featuring sensor technology and IO-Link communication.
The vise’s integrated sensors, with a clamping stroke of up to 110 mm, monitor the opening position, clamping force and contact status, enabling continuous condition monitoring. An optional position measurement system enables fully automatic set-up and eliminates operator errors.
Via the standardised IO-Link interface, process and status data can be effortlessly integrated into existing control and monitoring systems – ideal for unmanned machining. The ASH is used, for example, when components of varying sizes need to be clamped on a regular basis.

Low-draw-clamp HILMA.UC 125 – Extended clamping range for heavy parts
For large and heavy workpieces (e.g., in tool and die making), STARK has extended the modular 5-axis vise HILMA.UC 125. A new base extension with optional centre jaw allows clamping widths of up to one meter for heavy loads. The new configuration unites the vise into a closed system, facilitating setup and enabling direct use in a zero-point clamping system. The highly efficient low-draw mechanism developed by STARK prevents part lift-off and ensures that the closed force path protects against deformation. Clamping force is applied via a pull-spindle of up to 52 kilonewtons.
