Clamping locator AMWF-L series

pneumatic

Overview
These ball-locking pneumatic Flex locator pins (AMWF-L series) are designed for locating and clamping in tooling, fixturing and assembly operations. The three-ball mechanism centers and clamps the bushing to deliver high locating repeatability of ±0.01 mm when plates are mounted horizontally. When air pressure is applied the balls retract into the pin, allowing release from the receiver.
