double acting, separate locking port

Position flexible clamping elements can be used for supporting and clamping of unstable workpiece sections. They adapt themselves to the position of the clamping point without deforming them. They cushion vibrations and compensate machining forces from all directions.
The position flexible clamping claw consists of an U-shaped mounting body and the displacably embedded clamping unit with oil supply by two short high-pressure hoses with swarf protection.
In the movable clamping unit a double-acting hydraulic cylinder is integrated, whose clamping force is introduced through the clamping lever by 180° into the workpiece support.
This support is height-adjustable to clamp workpieces of different thickness. After the clamping process the still displaceable clamping unit will be locked by a single-acting cylinder in the mounting body. To control the clamping lever an inductive or pneumatic position monitoring can be delivered.
