Automatic Clamping & Declamping Unit

Productivity Consultants offers Automatic Clamping and Declamping Unit for machine tools. The system is indicated in the schematic drawing, No: PS-97004. It consists of a small control panel, proximity switch and a pneumatically operated clamping and decamping fixture to suit the job. The article to be drilled is put in the fixture. The position of the drill is sensed just before touching the article and a signal is given to the fixture to close and clamp. The reverse happens when the drill is moving upward. When the drill comes out of the article, the fixture gets the signal to open and release. The system with minor adjustments where required can be attached on machines other than drilling machine. The panel requires supply of electricity of 230 V AC and compressed air at about 5 kgf/cm2.
