Since the 1980ْs, Vektek has researched, designed, manufactured, direct-sold and serviced the VektorFlo > line of hydraulic clamping devices. During this time, we have often had requests for pneumatic products. While we have successfully converted many of our hydraulic clamps for air use, we wanted to offer a complete line of pneumatic products, specifically designed to meet the requests we were hearing about.We are now proud to offer you the VektorAirΙ line of pneumatic swing clamps, toggle clamps, intensifier, valves, hardware and plumbing accessories, designed specifically for clamping....

First, determine the nature of the op era tion to be performed, the number of parts to be processed per cycle, and whether operations will be performed on more than one surface of each part. Also, determine the time that should be allowed for part loading, un load ing, and clamp ing.In the initial phases of system planning, include adequate measures and devices to ensure the safety of workers and equip ment. For more in for ma tion, see the safety section on the back inside cover. After you have determined the machine cutting forces, its easy to calculate the clamping forces required to...

Following are some of the questions we have been asked while developing the VektorAir line. Please read them carefully before planning your system. Many common problems can be identified and corrected before you even order a part! > Where have you set your minimum operating pressure? When establishing operating pressure for the system, remember that 30 psig is the minimum and must be maintained during cycling. If you set your regulator to 30 psig and then open the valve and the pressure drops to 20 psig during clamping, you need to increase pressure until 30 psig is maintained during the...

Standard Features Models swing 90. Magnetic plungers are standard on all models, allowing you to use position-indicating sensors. Our capscrew arm design is available. You may modify our arm, or we have provided you with dimensions to make your own. Position sensors mount within the clampڒs space envelope so sensor usage doesnt encroach on the clampҒs mounting envelope. Special wipers and swept-line cylinder top helps keep chips from packing and coolant contaminants from entering the operation. > Position sensors have an LED indicator to reduce setup time. Swing clamp bodies are wrought...

■ Increases clamping forces by increasing standard shop air to a maximum of 250 psig. This eliminates the need for high pressure compressors or the need to utilize hydraulic systems for low to medium clamp forces. ■ The VektorAir intensifier has a built in adjustable regulator to easily allow for precise adjustment of clamp force. ٢֠ Designed specifically for clamping applications, our intensifier has an exclusive feature that uses the standard shop air to cycle the clamps. Then, the intensifier engages, allowing pressure to elevate to the predetermined setting. This decreases cycle time to...

Do all of your toggles have a place to attach a proximity switch? No, Festo part numbers and mounting kits are listed for the items where they are applicable. Since different cylinders require different switches, the details of the switch and mount are available from Festoή. Swing clamps have built in mounts and use the position-sensing switch on page B-6. What is the F1, F2, F3, F4, and F5 force listed in the catalog? F1 is the holding capacity of the materials and clamp when locked in the over center position at that point on the arm. F2 is the same specification closer to the clamp and...
