Block clamps

Fail-safe function
The full clamping force is maintained both in the event of pressure drop and a complete pressure loss. This is achieved by a fail-safe, patented clamping of the clamping bolt.

Application
Hydraulic block clamps are particularly suitable for clamping of workpieces, that require a large free space for machining, and for applications where conventional clamps and swing clamps are too big. Especially for the machining from five sides the reduced height of the block clamp and the possibility to immerge into a horizontal bore hole for clamping are of special advantage.
The block clamp with fail-safe function is preferably used on clamping pallets, that will be disconnected from the pressure generator after clamping. The low operating pressure of 70 and / or 100 bar allows the direct connection to the low-pressure hydraulics of many machining machines.
