Gripper jaws can be a great way of getting round part movement in roughing operations, this is by use of teeth in the jaw which bite into the material. This biting can also be a great way to get round problems using black bar or other rough material....
Gripper jaws can reduce the risk of the part being torn out under high machining forces. The penetrating tips produce a very high holding force even at low clamping force.
