Single acting and spring clamping module. Supply air for unclamping, release for clamping. Supplying air allows the tapered piston to rise. The balls become loose and the clamping pin is released. Releasing air allows the spring to push down the tapered piston. The balls pushed by the piston pull down the clamping pin. Keeps clamping without air supply. Block Plug This module has 2 pneumatic ports for unclamping. Attach the furnished block plug to the unused port. HowTo Use■Clamping Pin Use accurate clamping pins for locating. Note: Use accurate clamping pins for 2 places and standard ones for...

The tapered piston goes down and pushes the balls to pull down the receiver. Can keep clamped without air supply. The wedge goes up and releases the balls. Quick clamping and unclamping reduce set-up time in production equipment. Locating Repeatability: ±10 ju.m The receiver is centered and clamped when the 3 balls are pushed out to gain high locating repeatability.

■This module clamps the plate with spring force, and can be boosted by supplying air to the turbo port. Supplying air to the unclamping port opens the module, and releasing air allows the spring to hold the clamping pin for clamping. ■Available with either external threaded connection or internal connection. Supplying air raises the tapered piston, releasing the pressure on the balls and unclamping the clamping pin. ■This module works as a form holding clamp for O.D. clamping or I.D. clamping by mounting optional jaws. Diamond pins are not required for rotational positioning when using multiple...

Prepare channel holes for turbo, unclamping, and (if needed) seating check in the base plate. Each channel should connect to a vertical hole with a diameter of 0 2-4. Part Number Note: The depth is set as the minimum to avoid interference with the Mi tapped holes. Make sure the channel is placed at this depth or deeper. The hole depths for the unclamping and turbo sides can be reversed if needed. ■The depth of vertical holes (02-4) should be h2. ■Make sure to set different depths for the turbo and unclamping channels to avoid interference. ■Use one air supply port each for turbo and unclamping,...
