Swing clamps, compact design, with threaded body (D)
Swing clamp cylinders operate single-acting with reset spring or double-acting hydraulically. The hydraulic oil supply can be connected by G1/8 threaded port or by manifold connection with O-ring. For any risk of exceeding the permitted volume flow a throttle check valve must be interposed into the oil supply line. Counter-hold the clamping arm when tightening or loosening the fixing cap screw in order to prevent torque transfer to the piston rod and to avoid damage to the ball guide.
The clamping procedure is initiated with a superimposed swing and stroke movement. After that, a linear clamping stroke follows. Cylinders with swing angles 0°, 45°, 60°, 90° are available as standard. The clamping force is depending from the length of the clamping arm. Except for the standard clamping arm also special clamping arms can be assembled. The maximum operating pressure of 350 bar only applies to clamping arms with a maximum length of 26 mm.
Important notice:
When installing the cylinder into the fixture plate the ventilation channel must be protected from ingress of liquids and dirt. If the swing clamp cylinder is screwed into a blind bore, the ventilation must be guaranteed through a protected bore. Before initial operation the swing clamp cylinder must be fully ventilated.
