A Pneumatic Hole Clamp Model SWA

Product catalog summary
Pneumatic Hole Clamp Overview
The document provides an overview of pneumatic clamping devices, focusing on the Pneumatic Hole Clamp model SWA. This model is designed to improve machining accuracy and efficiency by securely clamping workpieces with minimal interference and deformation.
Specifications and Features
The SWA model offers variable mounting dimensions to accommodate different equipment, featuring a lighter and shorter body compared to the high-power model SWE. It supports a range of hole diameters in 0.5mm increments and offers an option without a pulling function to minimize deformation. The clamp includes a built-in locking spring and lift spring for secure clamping even at zero air pressure.
Advantages
The SWA model allows for zero interference with five faces of the workpiece, enhancing machining accuracy and reducing cycle times. It supports downsizing of fixtures and machining equipment, leading to simpler and more efficient operations. The design facilitates easy chip flow and reduced coolant usage.
Operational Insights
The document describes the action of the hole clamp in various states: released, clamping, and clamping completed. It emphasizes the importance of using support for thrust loads to prevent damage when the 'without pulling function' option is selected.
Design and Safety Features
The clamp's design includes a cap structure to prevent chip ingress and ensure smooth loading and unloading. The self-lock function ensures safety even when air pressure is lost. The document also details the action confirmation process, including the detection of abnormal conditions such as clamping without a workpiece or component failure.
Conclusion
The Pneumatic Hole Clamp model SWA is a versatile and efficient solution for machining operations, offering significant advantages in terms of accuracy, efficiency, and safety. Its design and operational features make it suitable for a wide range of applications, with options to customize based on specific requirements.
Release Action
When releasing, the workpiece is lifted, which is normal. For horizontal applications, it is recommended to install a fall prevention mechanism for temporary tacking.
Horizontal Locating
Ensure no lifting or slope of the workpiece when set. Clamping with lifting or slope can damage the clamp and deform the workpiece hole.
Detaching Workpieces
Detach workpieces only when all clamps are fully released to prevent damage or falls.
Setting Rough Guides
When detaching a sloped workpiece, it may cause clamp damage or workpiece fall. Set rough guides considering the center distance accuracy of mounting and workpiece holes.
Damage Prevention during Robot Handling
Ensure the SWA tip is vertical to the workpiece hole during insertion/removal. Control insertion speed to avoid damage. Ensure the robot operates only after SWA completes clamping/releasing.
Handling and Maintenance
Operate by qualified personnel only. Do not operate or remove products without ensuring safety protocols. Regularly clean clamping parts and seating surfaces. Avoid disassembly or modification to maintain warranty.
Installation Notes
Use filtered clean dry air. Clean pipelines thoroughly before piping. Use appropriate sealing tape and ensure proper installation direction. Use air piping with specified dimensions for effective air blow.
Warranty
The warranty period is 18 months from shipment or 12 months from initial use. It covers defects due to faulty design, materials, or workmanship. Exclusions include improper maintenance, inappropriate use, unauthorized repairs, and natural disasters.

Pneumatic Hole Clamp Various Kinds of Protection by Cap Structure All sizes are equipped with the cap. Clearance between Cap and Gripper Minimum clearance between cap and gripper prevents cutting chips from entering inside. Small clearance leads to effective purging. Even with a little air flow it prevents coolant from entering inside. Workpiece does not have contact with gripper. It makes loading-unloading smooth. Not necessary to have rough guide on fixture. ※ Depends on the condition of loading speed, etc.
