Zero Point Clamping System fully sealed – low maintenance Zero point clamping system modules ■ Highest precision ■ Wear-resistant and rust protected ■ Maximum pull-in forces due to turbo function ■ Suitable for automation ■ Low installation height due to compact design ■ Modules fully sealed (proofline) Special module height extensions ■ For automation Clamping pins ■ Large entry radii on the clamping pins for easy and safe loading ■ Wear-resistant Combi units ■ Ready to use combi module units ■ Different heights Clamping units ■ Fully assembled clamping unit ■ Ready to use ■ Customer-specific...

AUTOMATIC POSITIONING SYSTEM CLAMPING SYSTEM WITH 3 JAWS AT 120° APS is the only one clamping system ZERO POINT with 3 jaws at 120° and thanks to special treatments antifriction and anticorrosion of the pins and the clamping jaws (already preliminarily treated to 62 HRC), further improves its performance. MAXIMUM RIGIDITY! • Monolithic piston with inclined planes • Jaws with double inclined plane which generates the “PULL DOWN” effect 4 | OML MAXIMUM ACCURACY! Maximum accuracy of the tapered coupling between the pin and the

Stroke control system The patented SC system is ideal for automated applications with robot loading and unloading of the pallets. The APS locking and unlocking is monitored by air pressure. Locking position The air enters from the lower side inlet the hole and exits out from the hole w = pressure drop in the line and the machine receives a “APS locked” confirmation. Unlocking position The air enters from the lower side inlet and it can’t escape from the hole w = no pressure drop in the line and the machine receives a “APS unlocked” confirmation. ATTENTION: the pneumatic system of the pressure...

APPLICATION EXAMPLES

ZERO POINT CLAMPING SYSTEM Clamping Pins B: Sword Pin Type A is used for centering and clamping. Type B is used for reference and clamping. Type C is only used for clamping. All clamping pins are wear-resistant and protected against rust. Large entry radii of the clamping pins ensure easy and safe loading. Holding Forces (kN) with screw DIN EN ISO 4762 - 12.9 M6 Tightening torque for pins mounting bolts

ZERO POINT CLAMPING SYSTEM Positions of the clamping pins Positioning of the Sword Pin Type B E Axis that links pins A and B Reference slot for the pin Detail D D Detail E Reference points into the plate The reference slot of the pin type B must be oriented at 90° compared to the axis that links pins A and B (detail D = reference slot for the pin aligned with the reference points into the plate).
