Hinge Clamps 70 bar

The hinge clamp is a double acting hydraulic cylinder with integrated clamping lever. When pressurising the element, the piston moves upwards and swivels the clamping lever over the hinges forwards and at the same time downwards onto the workpiece. The piston force is deviated by 180° and, depending on the lever length, the force is available as clamping force.
The kinematics are so designed that no side loads enter into the workpiece, if the clamping surface is at the same height as the centre of rotation of the clamping lever.
The 3 available clamping directions (L, G, R) make it easier to adapt to the workpiece shape or the hydraulic connectivity. All sizes are optionally available with switch rod for external position monitoring. Electrical and pneumatic position monitorings for the clamping and unclamping position are available as accessories.
