Toggle Action

The theoretical maximum holding or clamping force of a toggle action device is achieved when the 3 pivot points are in a straight line. To make allowance for external forces due to vibration and changing load conditions in industrial applications, the proper amount of over-travel at the centre pivot point has been carefully calculated to yield maximum clamping pressure, while achieving a positive locking position.

Holding Capacity & Clamping Force

All Good Hand Clamps are rated by their holding capacity. This rating is the maximum force the clamp will support when locked in the closed position without creating permanent deformation. This force is measured at a point closest to the base and diminishes as the end of the bar is reached. The clamping force is defined as the actual force being applied by the clamp to the work piece. This rating is not constant due to such variables as the location of force on the handle, amount of force the operator applies and the location of the spindle on the hold-down bar.

Features:

  • Hand grips are covered with an oil/stain resistant red vinyl for easy identification and to assure safety and comfort for the operator
  • All die-stamped steel parts are deburred, cleaned and zinc-plated finish to resist corrosion and creates a smooth and easy to clean surface
  • Heavy-duty rivets are used to maintain accuracy and to increase endurance
  • All heavy-duty clamps receive hardened ground pins and bushings
  • Flanged washers are supplied with all U-bar and open-bar models
  • Weld-on bolt retainers are supplied with all solid bar models
  • Toggle mechanism is designed to allow maximum clearance for ease of loading and unloading of work piece

Brand: Uhing (made in Germany)

The RG series of Rolling Ring Drives are the original aluminum bodied traversal units. They are friction drives which convert the constant rotation of a plain round shaft into reciprocating motion. A unique technology first invented by Uhing from Germany, widely used in the Wire and Cable Winding industry.

They operate like nuts on a threaded bar, however the pitch both left and right-hand is capable of fine adjustment or set to zero.

This effect is achieved by using ball bearing based Rolling Rings which are designed to pivot about the shaft, their specially crowned running surfaces being pressed against the shaft as it rotates. High quality product made in Germany by Uhing.

Main advantages of the Uhing Rolling Ring Principle:

  • automatic reciprocating motion*
  • variable adjustment of traverse speed up to 4.2 m/sec max, also different from both directions *
  • variable adjustment of traverse length
  • high dynamics at the reversal points
  • low operating costs

*at constant speed and direction of shaft rotation

Brand: Uhing (made in Germany)

Uhing Linear Drive Nuts (RS) are non-positive drives which convert the rotation of a plain round shaft into linear motion. This effect is achieved by pressing specially crowned Rolling Rings against the shaft and allowing them to roll on the surface of the shaft at an angle which determines the pitch.

Suitable for use as an actuator for: linear motion drives, measurement and inspection technology, materials handling systems, control systems, medical engineering etc.

Main advantages of the Uhing Linear Drive Nuts:

  • Backlash-free
  • Resistant to vibrations
  • Compact design
  • Overload protection
  • High-efficiency
  • Quiet in operation
  • Low maintenance
  • Free-movement lever
  • Good sealing possibilities
  • Linked nuts for higher side thrust
  • Left and right-hand pitch on the same shaft

The FAEBI® Rubber Air Springs provides highly effective insulation of vibrations and structure-borne noise for a wide variety of machine types, optical and electronic devices, laser systems as well as vehicle, engine and transmission test benches.

Low-frequency air springs from Bilz provide highly effective vibration isolation and can be combined with a variety of mechanical and electronic level control systems.
The damping level of the pneumatic and low-maintenance air springs can be adjusted as required.

In comparison to steel springs the use of air spring offers many advantages when used for vibration insulation:

  • Flexible insulation system design: Changes in the static or dynamic loads can be compensated for by adjusting the air pressure. This can be performed either manually or pneumatically (e.g. using Bilz level control)
  • Integrated damping, therefore separate damping is not necessary.
  • No transmission of structure borne noise
