Rigid coupling: shaft collar
16 Nm | ETP-UNIGRIP
ETP
The axial tensioner ETP-UNIGRIP is used when workpieces or tools, for example circular knives with spacers, are going to be clamped axially against a shoulder on the shaft in an accurate position.
CONSTRUCTION
Hydraulic unit with two clamping systems consisting of a hardened steelbody with an inner sleeve, three axial pistons with seals and two pressure screws.
OPERATION
When the first screw (marked R) is tightened the inner sleeve grips the shaft, locking ETP-UNIGRIP in position. As the second screw (marked A) is tightened, the axial pistons move into contact with the component which is to be clamped. The hydraulic principle means that the axial force is evenly distributed between the three pistons, offering accurate clamping of components.
