Workpiece Support LC - LC/D - LC/E - LD - LD/E

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides comprehensive specifications and operational instructions for the LC and LD series hydraulic work support systems by Kosmek Ltd. These systems are designed to offer robust support for workpieces during machining processes, utilizing hydraulic and spring advances.
Specifications: The document details various models such as LC0402, LC0482, LC0552, LC0652, LC0752, and LC0902, each with specific support force ranges and operational parameters. The systems operate at a maximum pressure of 7 MPa, with support forces varying based on the model and hydraulic pressure applied. The LD model is available in four sizes (M26 to M45) and operates within a pressure range of 2.5 to 7 MPa.
Features: Key features include a unique collet system for strong gripping force, corrosion-resistant materials, and the ability to handle large cutting loads. The systems are compact, suitable for low-pressure applications, and prevent workpiece chatter. The LD model features a steel ball and collet mechanism for even force distribution.
Operating Instructions: The document outlines the operational stages from the initial release position to the work support position. It describes how the plunger rises and locks the workpiece using hydraulic pressure and spring force. The contact force can be adjusted by selecting or replacing the spring.
Applications: These systems are ideal for supporting thin workpieces and can be used in various machining environments. The LC-D model is suitable for fastening long rods, while the LD model is ideal for high-pressure coolant environments.
Performance Curves and Diagrams: The document includes performance curves showing support force under static load conditions and load/displacement diagrams at 7 MPa hydraulic pressure. These graphs help in understanding the system's behavior under different operational conditions.
Model Code and Dimensions: Detailed model codes and dimensions are provided for each system, including variations for gasket and pipe types. The document specifies the plunger stroke, cylinder volume, and other critical dimensions.
Recommendations: Users are advised to select the appropriate model based on their specific application needs and to consider the system's pressure and support force capabilities. The document highlights the importance of installing anti-rotation devices for certain applications.
Procedures: Instructions are provided for creating differences in support face height, applicable only with C type pipe systems. The document emphasizes simplifying machining on the mounting side to reduce parts.
Standards and Recommendations: Recommendations include checking specifications, designing hydraulic circuits with caution, and ensuring proper plunger operation time. The document advises maintaining a support force greater than 1.5 times the clamping force.
Warranty and Cautions: The warranty period is 1.5 years after shipment or 1 year of use. Conditions not covered by the warranty include improper maintenance or unauthorized modifications. Cautions include ensuring the correct weight for attachments and protecting the plunger surface from contaminants.
Key Features: The BZ speed controller and JZG plug are highlighted for their air release functions, improving hydraulic system stability. The document also discusses the manifold conversion and the importance of using the lightest possible weight for attachments.
Applications: Applications include use in welding jigs and other equipment, with specific guidelines for vent port usage to avoid contamination.
