At MaxxTooling, we pride ourselves on delivering workholding solutions that not only perform with excellence but also provide an intuitive user experience. One of the ways we achieve this is by incorporating laser-etched icons alongside SKUs (product numbers) on each of our products. This unique feature ensures that customers can instantly recognize a product's features and applications at a glance.
Here’s why this design innovation matters and how it benefits our customers:
The Role of Laser-Etched Icons
Laser-etched icons on our products offer:
-
Clarity in Identification: Each icon is carefully designed to represent specific features or functionalities. For example:
- A Robot Gripper icon indicates compatibility with robotic systems.
- A Corrosion Resistant (stainless) icon highlights the use of inox material for enhanced durability.
- Ease of Use: Technicians and operators can quickly identify the right product for their task without cross-referencing manuals or catalogs.
- Professional Aesthetic: The laser etching is precise and durable, maintaining a professional look even in demanding environments.

Laser Markings on Chucks: Clear and Functional
In our chuck systems, laser markings go a step further to enhance usability:
Pneumatic Chucks
-
Port Identification: Each port is clearly labeled to simplify installation and operation.
- Unclamp Port: Indicates the correct connection for releasing the clamp.
- Z-Blast Port: Marks the air blast cleaning function, ensuring efficient debris removal.
- Turbo Lock Port: Denotes the locking mechanism for enhanced grip and security.
Manual Chucks
Our manual chucks are designed with user-friendliness and precision in mind. To ensure safe and efficient operation, we include the following key laser markings:
- Max Torque: Clearly etched on the chuck, this marking specifies the maximum torque to be applied. This helps operators avoid over-tightening, ensuring both safety and optimal performance during setup and use.
- Lock and Unlock Directions: On quickchucks, laser markings indicate the correct directions for locking and unlocking. This feature simplifies operation, reduces setup time, and ensures consistent clamping.
