We take a "Build on the Rock" approach to workholding
Okay, but what does that mean?
We believe that every CNC machining operation should start with a rock-solid foundation. Our precision-engineered tombstones serve as the backbone of your setup, but what you build on that foundation is just as important. Through our industry-leading partnerships with Schunk, Mitee-Bite, Vektek, Triag, and more, we offer a wide variety of workholding solutions tailored to your specific needs. Whether you require high-precision vises, modular clamping, or hydraulic fixtures, our workholding systems are designed to maximize efficiency, accuracy, and repeatability.
Just as a strong foundation is critical in both engineering and life, building on the rock ensures stability, reliability, and peak machining performance.

Why Hennig
Engineered for Your Industry
Machining Automation
CNC shops keep pallets moving and machines cutting nights, weekends, and short-staffed shifts with Hennig’s WorkFlow automated pallet delivery system.
CNC Machine Tool
Even the best CNC machines are only as good as their peripheral equipment. If systems aren’t built to work together, jams, crashes, and tolerance errors will cause downtime and scrap costs.

How Much Is Setup Time Costing You?
Every changeover means idle spindle time. Multi-part fixturing slashes setup frequency — so your machines spend more hours cutting and less time waiting.
