Pneumatic Toggle Clamps

A Pneumatic Toggle clamp is a basically a Toggle Clamp actuated with a

double acting pneumatic cylinder.

The Clamps consists of a double acting cylinder, a clamping arm,

linkages for multiplying the applied force, and a base for mounting at

the workplace on its base.

Air pressure in applied in the clamping port, which thereby moves the

clamping arm to hold the work piece. A required clamping force is

achieved and exerted on the work piece. Under this action the Toggle

Clamp Holds the work piece firmly and positively. To unlock the clamp

the air pressure is applied in the unclamping port.

These clamps utilize the same basic design and operation as manual hold down, only they are operated pneumatically. As the clamp uses the toggle action principle it ensures that the clamp stays locked in the event of air failure. These clamps are extremely compact in design and feature a very low height, allowing free movement of operating tools in drilling, tapping, milling etc. The clamp units are completely self contained with a double acting cylinder and require only to be connected to the air line. The clamping arm exhibits a minimum 95 opening angle for easy unloading of workpiece and is available in two different options.
