pneumatic

Overview
This pneumatic Flex locating/clamping module (AMWFH-WP series) provides high-precision part locating with spring-force clamping and an optional turbo air boost for increased clamp force. The module is mounted to a base plate while a clamping pin is attached to the fixture plate, enabling rapid fixture plate changeover and repeatable positioning.

Features

• Flex locating module for high-precision locating and high clamping force
• Spring-force clamping with optional turbo air boost to increase clamping force
• Locating repeatability: 5 microns (0.005 mm)
• Can act as a form-holding clamp for OD or ID clamping when fitted with form-holding jaws
• Delivered with diamond pin, locating pin, orifice plug, mounting hole caps and locating hole cap
• Body: 1055 steel with black oxide finish; balls: stainless steel
• Operation: supply air to unclamping port to open; release air to allow spring clamping; supply turbo air to turbo port to boost force
