Technical information are provided for informative purpose only and can be subject to change without prior notice 66 CX-Series For critical applications, where it is required to identify the unwilling presence of two metal sheets in the process and to avoid their clamping. This built-in device allows a reliable double workpiece identification. The below end cap shows an adjustment screw : by loosening the screw, the inlet pressure is adjusted, i.e. reduced to the minimum required to guarantee the clamping of a single workpiece , not of two metal sheets. The toggle linkage is therefore prevented from engaging (no toggle lock) and consequently the sensor will not detect the closed position and will signal the anomaly. Once the clamp is properly adjusted from the below end cap screw, to be able to clamp a single workpiece, it will be able to detect the false condition in case a second workpiece is inadvertently set on the tooling. Technical features Manual release button to open the linkage when air pressure is removed during setup. Pneumatic ports on both sides of the cylinder. Operating features Operating pressure from 2 to 8 bar / from 30 to 115 psi Lubrication all the devices are lubricated for life at the factory. Inline air lubrication isn’t required CLAMPING Patented Power clamps for double workpiece identification International mount - Naams mount Instructions The adjustment cannot be performed without air. 1 Install the clamp on the fixture by using all 4 screws and dowels. If mounted on the side, use the key slot. 2 Check the shimming and make sure that that with 5/ 5.5 bars the clamp is operating smoothly (0.3 or less shimming is optimal). 3 Place the workpiece and clamp it. Make sure you get the red led signal for closed position. 4 Open the clamp. 5 Use, further to the workpiece, a thickness gauge (a feeler or a shim) whose thickness is half the thickness of the workpiece. 6 Close the clamp and tighten the screw slightly. Operate the clamp and check if the closed position signal is lost. In this way, the pressure is reduced and the cylinder won’t get enough push force to engage the toggle linkage. 7 Open and close a few times, then double check with two workpieces and no red led light will be on, in such a condition. 8 If ok, tighten the bolt behind the screw to avoid its loosening.
