Floating clamp with separate workpiece clamp and interlock

The functioning principle make the wedge clamps ideal for series clamping. The wedge form can exert high clamping forces. These wedge clamps can be mounted in grid holes or T-slots. Tightening the socket screw moves the wedge down and the jaws out pressing the workpieces against the fixtures fixed stops. The wedge has a slightly elongated hole allowing for movement to compensate for tolerances.

The pneumatic hold-down clamp is suitable for clamping workpieces from above. This clamp is operated with standard pressure compressed air. The large swivel angle of the clamping arm makes it easy to insert and remove the workpieces without any obstructions, guaranteeing optimum accessibility to the workpiece. The block design of the housing offers universal fastening possibilities, which means that the clamp can be optimally adapted to the workpiece being clamped. Self-aligning pads with a smooth or serrated faces can be fitted in the clamping arm, enabling rough or machined workpieces to be clamped. These pneumatic clamps can be placed in multiple positions on the workpiece and operated in any particular order. They can be controlled manually or automatically. As these clamps are pneumatically actuated, they relieve the operator, particularly where frequent clamping processes are carried out.

Housing steel. Clamping lever plastic. Threaded spindle grade 12.9. Version Housing nickelplated. Clamping lever, spindle black oxidised. Note Manually operated clamping elements for static clamping tasks. Manual clamping process using the freely adjustable clamping lever. The floating clamp ensure symmetrical application of force onto the rail. Up to 50,000 static clamping cycles (B10d value). In general, a friction connection is created between the clamping element and the the linear guide on the open faces of the profile guide rail so that the ball guide tracks are not damaged. The retaining force is tested on an oil smeared profile guide rail. An adapter plate, dependent on the type of carriage used, is required for height adjustment.

1. Screw the locking screw into the collar bush, fixture clamp and clamping unit and screw onto the baseplate. 2. The workpiece is clamped by tightening the fixture clamp with a spanner. Advantages: Compact design Quick and easy clamping of components Pull-down effect Drawing reference: 1) Locking screw 2) Collar bush 3) Fixture clamp 4) Clamping unit
