B19501 Threaded-Body Work Supports
Hydraulic work supports are used to provide a self-adjusting rest for the workpiece during the machining operations. They compensate the workpiece surface irregularities, also vibration and deflection under machining loads.
The threaded-body design allows for space-saving and direct installation into the fixture body. Oil supply is made through drilled channels.
In the body of the threaded-body work support a thin-walled locking bush is integrated, which locks cylindrically around the freely-movable support plunger when pressurising the element with hydraulic oil. The elements are protected against penetration of swarf by a metallic wiper edge and sealed against liquids. The venting port allows also the connection of positive air pressure protection.
