body: steel, case hardened, nitrided, phosphate treated (manganese), ground;
clamping jaw: steel, case hardened, nitrided, phosphate treated (manganese).
Characteristics:
floating clamps are used to clamp and support additional clamping points on extremely pliable workpieces;
no distortion when clamping unstable workpieces;
avoids vibration during the processing;
clamps ribs, beads and shackles to reinforce clamped components;
distortion-free clamping of raw parts;
the thread bore must always be closed for safe functioning;
for specific clamping situations, the standard clamping jaws supplied can be exchanged or replaced (see technical drawing: screw ISO 4762 - M8 - 12.9, M max. = 43 Nm);
additional flexible possibility of fitting with holder HE16.0306.0350 or holding plate for down-hold clamps HE09.1229.1200;
clamping jaws with an increased clamping range, see HE36, are available;
x in the table indicates for which system the floating clamp is suitable.
*: with M12 tension bolt (SW18); min. 15 Nm = supporting force 2 kN; max. 30 Nm = supporting force 8 kN; *1: settings for height stop and swivel range; *2: M12 DIN 913 (interchangeable); *3: span stroke; *4: height adjustment; *5: clamping claws interchangeable; *6: 360° pivotable; *7: pivotable after installation; *8: connection dimensions for special clamping jaws.
Assembly:
1) mount the floating clamp (M12 connection thread) onto the device with a wrench (SW 46).
2) adjust the height limit stop and the rotating area with the blue sleeve and clamp with a set screw (3 x SW 1); when setting the height limit, consider tolerance of workpiece.
Operation:
1) push the floating clamp downward;
2) pivot the clamping jaws in as far as possible. The floating clamp contacts the bottom of the work piece with a slight spring load;
3) tighten the floating clamp with a hexagonal nut (SW 18) having a min. torque of 15 Nm and a maximum torque of 30 Nm in the clamping process, the workpiece is clamped and simultaneously supported;
