One-Touch Clamps are mechanical quick clamps. Quick and easy operation reduces setup time and spiral cam mechanism provides high clamping force.
These miniature cam action clamps swing into position and clamp straight down onto the work piece for direct downward pressure. The arm swings
completely out of the way to allow for easy loading and unloading of the work piece. Ideal for repetitive clamping operations. Comes with a contact bolt that can be reversed for finished or rough surfaces. Mounts from the top with two mounting holes. Part numbers ending with R have a clockwise clamping direction, part numbers ending in L have a counter clockwise clamping direction.
The body, washer and spindle are made from SAE-1045 alloy steel. The clamp arm, shaft and handle are made from SAE-4140 alloy steel. Parts are heat
treated with black oxide finish.
Features
While hydraulic workholding is high in fixturing cost and requires cumbersome maintenance, manual workholding is low in setup efficiency and requires much time for part loading/unloading.
One-Touch Clamps are mechanical quick clamps developed on the basis of these issues that end customers face. Workholding with One-Touch Clamps are much better in setup efficiencythan conventional manual worholding and much inexpensive than hydraulic workholding.
In Comparison with Hydraulic Workholding,
- Approx. 1/3 of Fixturing Cost
Simple construction for slashed fixturing cost and time - No plumbing needed.
In Comparison with Conventional Manual Workholding
- 3 Times Setup Efficiency
Quick part loading/unloading by operating the handle. - No tools needed
Clamping just by operating the handle.
Perfect for frequent part loading/unloading. Slashed setup time and increased productivity.
Other Features
- Positive Clamping
The spiral-cam mechanism provides secure clamping without loosening due to machining loads and vibrations. - Optional Handles
Adjustable-torque style that allows adjusting clamping force, and plug-in style that can be removed as needed.
