<p>The  RoHS-compliant, metric size clamps are made of C45 hardened steel with a  black oxide finish.  They have a maximum pressure of 10 bar and work  pressure of 6 bar.  These patented, smaller profile, high clamping  force, reduced air consumption, super-efficient clamps are a  revolutionary approach for applications in assembly, verification,  handling, robotics, machining, welding, etc.  Having a reduced size,  these clamps achieve higher holding forces than other clamping options.  The accompanying standard accessories can adapt the clamps to most all  applications, such as molded, cast or machined surfaces, caustic  environments, sensor requirements, etc.<a href="http://www.jwwinco.com/"></a></p>

<p>The MN 140 series of fastening clamps is a  new version of the patented, smaller profile, high clamping force,  super-efficient clamps.  The two arms on this style of clamp exert an  outward force from the center.</p>
<p>The RoHS-compliant, metric size clamps are  made of C45 hardened steel with a black oxide finish.   They have a maximum pressure of 10 bar and work pressure of 6 bar.  As  with the other types of Misati power clamps in J.W. Winco’s line, they  can be combined with a complete selection of accessories to accommodate  any application.</p>

The integrated pneumatic oval piston drive guarantees maximum power density.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">Radial gripping motions are often achieved by integrating a slotted link gear. Existing links cause an extreme reduction in the gripping moment, if the opening angles are rather small.  SCHUNK has found a solution for such an application; the patented Single-Pin guide rail which ensures a constant closing moment throughout the gripping range. The new PRG did not change in dimensions and can reliably grip larger workpieces or workpieces with a larger tolerance range. In addition, innovative dampening, which is directly integrated in the drive rod, allows short cycle times and a much longer admissible finger length.</span></span></p>

The end position can be optionally monitored by inductive proximity switches or magnetic switches.</span></span></span></span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PIAB ann0unced the VGS(TM)3040 vacuum gripper system. The VGS(TM)  series of products allows users to increase productivity and lower  operating costs. The units offer flexible material handling solutions  that reduce energy consumption, have faster response times and improve  reliability. Ideal for a variety of industries, the VGS(TM)3040 is ideal  for applications throughout the production line like high-speed  pick-and-place, packaging, palletizing, fixture holding, woodworking  handling, glass handling and automobile part and body assembly.</p>
<p>Each system utilizes an integrated COAX® cartridge, designed to position  vacuum power precisely where it&#8217;s needed, making maximum use of energy  and increasing speed by eliminating line losses and inefficiencies.  Vacuum flow levels are dependent on the size of the cartridge integrated  in the system. Vacuum power levels are determined by the type of  cartridge used, as there are three types to fit most applications.</p>
<p>The VGS(TM) series can be utilized in each step of the manufacturing  process to improve efficiency. With advantages such as excellent pick-up  and system speed, energy efficiency, high degree of safety, easy  dimensioning and reduced risk for leakage, the VGS(TM)3040 offers even  more benefits. The combination Vacustat and AQR 02 (atmospheric quick  release) can save up to 99% air consumption in a non-porous application.  An integrated blow-off check valve makes it possible to get a very  reliable positive pressure blow-off system, even in large decentralized  vacuum systems. The AQR 02 is the world&#8217;s fastest automatic quick  release function for a decentralized vacuum ejector pump. Fast release  is quite important as quick vacuum response is needed in high speed  applications.</p>
