KIPP introduces pneumatic clamping elements
For large quantities
HEINRICH KIPP WERK has introduced a wide spectrum of new clamping elements into its range. These new products are characterised by a pneumatic operating principle and are suitable for use mainly in machining centres. Partial automation simplifies processes considerably.
The pneumatic machinable collet (1) consists of a pneumatic collet holder and a alloy collet. After the collet holder is screwed onto fixture, the collet is mounted and can be actuated by applying compressed air to the open or close ports. Simple collet changes enable quick and easy clamping of various different workpieces with irregular contours.
The pneumatic pull clamp (2) grips and pulls down a draw bolt screwed into the workpiece. Clamping and releasing is carried out by a compressed air line applied to the specified port.
The distinguishing different features of the pneumatic hold-down clamps (3), swing clamps (4) and side clamps (5) manner in which each clamps the workpiece.
