SCHUNK Inc. is proud to announce their partnership with Joe Gibbs Racing (JGR). SCHUNK will serve as the “Official Workholding Solutions Provider” of Joe Gibbs Racing, home of the #20 Home Depot Toyota driven by Tony Stewart, the #18 M&M’s Toyota, driven by Kyle Busch, and the #11 FedEx Toyota, driven by Denny Hamlin.
SCHUNK will assist Joe Gibbs Racing by developing Workholding Solutions that will enable them to make track-specific modifications to the racecars by getting car parts cut quickly and therefore ensuring that Joe Gibbs Racing stays top competitive on the racetrack.
SCHUNK’s comprehensive line of Workholding Solutions as well as their reputation for providing quick responses with creative workholding solutions are a few of the reasons Joe Gibbs Racing chose SCHUNK. Speed was also a key factor in Joe Gibbs Racing’s decision. The SCHUNK Unilock Zero Point pallet system will significantly shorten the turn around time to get parts into the machine while maintaining accuracy with 0.0002” repeatability.
