SWING CLAMPS - INTRODUCTION Kurt Workholding introduces a wide range of Swing Clamps having clamping capacity of 475 lbs. to 6,000 lbs. at 5,000 PSI. The single cylinder design powers both the swing and clamp force cycle. The single cylinder swing clamp design allows for the clamp to swing left or right when unclamping to allow access to remove the part. Loading and unloading are a much easier task with the swing clamp design. There are three types of Clamping Cylinders. Upper Flange Swing Clamp Lower Flange Swing Clamp Link Clamp Work Support Work Support Threaded Cylinder Upper Flange Swing...

VT SERIES LINK CLAMP VT Series Link Clamp Description The clamping mechanism on this series of hydraulic clamping cylinders works on a lever principle. As the piston is pushed forward the clamp mechanism is pushed down. This type of clamp provides a larger clamping force than of a swing clamp of equal size. Main parts of the clamping mechanism are mounted outside of the cylinder body for convenient maintenance if needed. • Minimum operating pressure: 355 Lbs / 25Kg/cm2. • Maximum operating pressure: 995 Lbs / 70Kg/cm2. • Double acting and single acting • Cylinder body is made of aluminum alloy...

TC CLAMPING CYLINDER TC Series Hydraulic Threaded-Body Cylinders Description The Threaded Body Clamping Cylinders are designed for part holding, part positioning or ejection of a workpiece. Clamping force is applied to the workpiece within the designated clamping stroke to secure the part. They may also be used to pre position a part or aid in ejection of a workpiece. The mounting manner for this Threaded Body Clamping Cylinder is shown in the drawing below. This drawing illustrates dimensional data for clamping cylinder. This type of mounting needs a Teflon packing (included) in order to avoid...

WS-BL WORK SUPPORT WS-BL Low Pressure Work Supports • Collet design can produce larger supporting force than a sleeve design. • Larger supporting forces can be provided in a compact body making for better performance and stability even at low clamping pressure. • Larger supporting forces prevent work piece chatter caused by the cutting load and vibration. • It is not necessary to machine an air vent or oil passage for mounting to base with a thread body style work support thus making threaded body work supports user friendly. • The wiper makes less contacting force with the rod which results...
