B1880 Swing Clamps with Overload Protection Device
Hydraulic swing clamps are used for clamping of workpieces when it is essential to keep the clamping area free of straps and clamping components for unrestricted workpiece loading and unloading.
A swing clamp is a pull-type cylinder where a part of the total stroke is used to swing the piston (swing stroke) and the screwed-on clamping arm. The only exception is the series as per data sheet B 1.8806 where the swing motion is effected without axial stroke.
Swing direction
The swing clamps are available with clockwise and counterclockwise swing motion or without swing motion (0°).
"Swing direction clockwise" describes the clockwise rotation of the piston starting from the extended position (off-position). The "swing direction counterclockwise" is accordingly effected by counterclockwise rotation.
Standard swing angles are 45°, 60° and 90°.
