Clamping elements - Import export

Pneumatic Rotational Clamping Holding torque 76 Nm Direct clamping on the shaft: Rotation motions are prevented by the ACE models LOCKED R. Their clamping elements are available for shaft diameters of 50 to 340 mm and ensure maximum holding forces. The clamp is immediately applied by the diaphragm and spring-plate system when pressure is lost. Pneumatic quick-switch valves reduce the reaction times. The costs are low in comparison with hydraulic clamping systems. Their performance is, however, achieved or exceeded despite the compact and easy to assemble design. Special versions for YRT bearings as well as active clamping elements are additionally available. ACE recommends the use of the optional shaft flange as wear protection. The clamping force can be increased considerably by the use of the additional air function.

Pneumatic Rod Clamping, Compact Holding force 700 N Holding torque 7 Nm Compact and safe: when space becomes restricted, the compact LOCKED PRK clamping elements come into their own. As pneumatic rod clamping with low heights of 28 to 34 mm, they provide clamping forces of up to 5,000 N. Clamping is carried out by a diaphragm spring-plate system and is released when compressed air is applied. Clamping elements from the LOCKED PRK product family absorb the forces on rods with diameters between 20 and 40 mm both axially and rotationally. The function makes them suitable for use as static clamping without pressure, because the failure or drop of pneumatic pressure triggers immediate clamping. High clamping forces with low system costs compared with hydraulic and electric solutions make these clamping elements particularly interesting.

Rail Clamping for Z-Axes Holding force 1,500 N Innovative and BG certified: The pneumatic clamping elements LOCKED LZ-P have been specially designed for safe, reliable clamping on the vertical or Z-axes. The wedge principle makes sure that the gravity loaded axis does not drop. The brake wedges are pushed on both sides against the flat parallel surfaces of the guide rail in case of a loss of pressure. Initially developed for Bosch Rexroth rails in sizes 15 and 25 mm, a test certificate from the trade association was awarded after extensive tests on these clamping elements. Further certifications from other rail manufacturers and sizes are prepared and can be implemented within the shortest time. Users achieve holding forces of up to 2,500 N.

Safety Clamping for Rail Systems, Compact Holding force 300 N Small can clamp perfectly too: The LOCKED-Family SLK clamping elements are more compact than the Series SL. They also clamp directly onto the respective linear guide, suit all standard rail sizes from 15 to 55 mm and profiles from the known suppliers and are extremely reliable and safe. Thanks to the patented spring steel plate system, the product family SLK achieves clamping and holding forces of up to 2,100 N with the shortest reaction times when vented. Thanks to the sintered metal coatings and the clamping function in emergency stop (e.g. in case of a power failure), this range enables braking directly on the rail. All clamping elements offer the maximum holding and braking forces and achieve up to 1 million clamping cycles or up to a maximum of 500 emergency braking operations in the 4 and 6 bar version.

Safety Clamping for Rail Systems Holding force 540 N Always on the safe side: The safety clamping elements LOCKED SL clamp and brake directly on the clear area of guide rails on linear modules with forces of up to 10,000 N. They are individually adjusted to the linear guide being used and are available for all rail sizes from 20 to 65 mm and profiles from all renowned manufacturers. Special brake pads made of low wear sintered metal are used for the additional emergency stop braking functions in the safety clamping elements LOCKED SL. The SL product family offers optimum static clamping with a service life up to 1 million cycles or up to 500 emergency braking operations. They also offer low system costs in comparison with hydraulic and electric solutions.

Optimum heat-treatment, pickling and coating facilities are available for every material group. As a result of the continuous improvement of our in-house tool production operations, EZM can manufacture sections whose geometry and shape are as near as possible to the net shape, maintaining the tightest tolerances and producing flawless surfaces. Our cold-drawn sections are successfully used when metal cutting is uneconomical due to the great effort and material losses involved, or when the section is to be given specific properties that can only be achieved by targeted cold-forming. In our plant EZM Profil Bearbeitung, based in Rohr/Thüringen, sections are manufactured by machining up to 6,200 mm length and a maximum crossing-section of 125 mm, which are needed for for example for linear guides in the machine and plant...

Light Clamps – the clever plastic series: With the plastic tube connectors from the "Light Clamps" series, RK Rose+Krieger has developed a cost-effective and versatile range of tube connectors for the positive connection of tubes in the light load range. This design enables the clamping of the most various tube sections and –diameters. Besides their attractive design and the intelligent system of reducing bushes the clamping elements are characterised especially by their resistance to chemicals. They are particularly appropriate for sensitive applications under laboratory conditions and for industrial applications as, for instance, in the beverage or packing industry.

Besides their own clamp-band designs Freek also manufactures original Rosemount clamp-bands that can be used as "Husky-replacement heaters" (see spare part cross-reference list). For example the two screw clamp band (FB) and the axial clamp band (FE). Freek has all the various industry standards for clamp-band nozzle heaters in Ø19,05 and Ø22,40 in their assortment, too. HotCoil minitubular heaters with clamp band are a highly demanded and very flexible clamping system, especially for heating larger nozzles and bushings with high power. The size-variable customizable clamp bands counteract the heating's thermal-related "lifting ambition" during heat-up and thus effectively prevent a possible critical overheating. For an even better protection all HotCoil heating elements can also be provided with an integrated thermocouple. As alternative to our standard clamping mechanism with welded clamping elements a space-saving lug clamping mechanism can be supplied.

RK tube connectors – the flexible alternative to welded connections The clampable tube connectors from RK Rose+Krieger are a cost-efficient solution for the positive and ready detachable connection of a diverse variety of systems – without the need for drilling and welding. Depending on the field of application and the expected load, RK Rose+Krieger offers tube connectors made of plastic (Light Clamps), aluminium (Solid Clamps) or stainless steel (Robust Clamps). The Solid Clamps tube connector system also includes the RK monitor mounting for the fixation and ergonomic adjustment of monitors and touch screens used in industrial applications. Say goodbye to welding – that could be the motto of the clampable RK tube connectors The simple assembly technology of the clamping elements eliminates the need for time-consuming and cost-intensive drilling and welding work.

Especially for high-cavity PET plastic injection moulding there are various industry standards of clamp-band nozzle heaters available. Most common are the Axial Clamp-Band Heater and the Two-screw Clamp-Band Heater. Our HotCoil cable heaters with clamp band represent a highly demanded and very flexible clamping system, especially for heating larger nozzles and bushings with high power. The size-variable customizable clamp bands counteract the heating's thermal-related "lifting ambition" during heat-up and thus effectively prevent a possible critical overheating. For an even better protection all HotCoil heating elements can also be provided with an integrated thermocouple. As alternative to our standard clamping mechanism with welded clamping elements a space-saving lug clamping mechanism can be supplied.

Our Locking System provides a quick, easy and reliable clamping of the heating element on the nozzle to be heated. It facilitates an effective heat transfer, as the inside sheath is pressed to the nozzle with a high level of precision creating an interference fit. Due to the method of construction of the lock, installation is possible in the restrictive space of small cavities. The lock can be operated quickly and efficiently with simple readily available tools.

The Freek heat transfer nozzle heater type especially addresses manufacturers and users who operated their hotrunner nozzles with cast-in heaters in the past and would like to stick to their engineering know-how without paying the high price of this former heater design. The standard material of our patent pending Freek heat transfer alternative is brass, with or without coating, basically with a slit. Characteristics of our HotMicroCoil nozzle heaters sheathed by a reflection tube are easy mounting and variable heat distribution. Because of its direct touch and toleranced fit, the heater allows a very good heat transmission to the nozzle. In all our HotMicroCoils with reflection tube the assembly of a thermocouple is possible and recommended for bigger diameters and power. Also most common nozzle heater solutions are HotMicrocoil heating elements with clamp bands with diverse locking mechanisms.

Metalworking companies are increasingly looking for practical solutions on how to quickly and easily carry out welding tasks. For small quantities, however, automation systems for welding have so far been difficult to implement, from an economical point of view. At the same time, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find qualified welders for manual processing. OTC DAIHEN EUROPE has developed EASY ARC, a new mobile welding robot system for workshop operation, which meets the economic and pragmatic requirements. EASY ARC includes a compact welding robot with intuitive OTC Easy-Teach control, which offers the operator with the perfect weld seam, thanks to the integrated expert system and manufacturer’s own 400A MIG / MAG power source inverter. The robot is mounted on a welding table that is prepared for holding standard clamping elements and equipped with rollers. The simple conversion of the system thus ensures appropriate flexibility in production.
