Fix standard parts in seconds with the help of norelem’s range of mechanical clamping components. Durable, easy assembly and a clamping range of 0 to 30 millimetres, locating cylinders with wedge clamp system reliably fix and centre standard parts and quickly adapt to changes in the production process.
Mechanical locating systems are used in automated production for many different processes. They must be fast and reliable, and they must be easy to readjust if necessary.
Locating cylinders from norelem with wedge clamp system fulfil all these requirements. They are made of burnished tempered steel and are available in four different diameters from 10 to 20 mm. The cylinders achieve a holding force of 5.4 kN to 22.6 kN, with a clamping range of 0 to 30 mm. This makes them ideal for many manufacturing processes involving the fastening and fixing of standard elements - even in combination with quick-change systems.
The ease of assembly has many advantages. Standard tools are sufficient to mount the locating cylinders; the cylinder is even preloaded by hand, which means centring or locating bushes are not necessary. Compared to solutions with balls, locating cylinders from norelem with wedge clamp system offer above all a significant increase in clamping force with the same tightening torque. The high-quality axial bearing convinces with a high load rating and long service life.
Further advantages include:
- Easily adjustable clamping range
- Independent of diameter and surface condition of the bore (up to H12)
- Pull-down effect
- Fixture flexibility for quick reaction to changes in the production process
As an accessory, norelem offers a repair kit (screw with countersunk head, O-ring and 3-part jaws), with which a locating cylinder can be quickly and easily repaired.
