Roemheld Hinge Clamps-Top Flange
3600 psi maxDouble Acting
Hinge Clamps have a sturdy linkage configuration that moves the clamping arm forward as it pivots into clamping position. This specially designed linkage allows the clamp to exert nearly perfectly vertical clamping force. The clamping arm retracts fully for clear loading from above. Ideal for clamping in narrow recesses. Durable, economical clamp with an easy-to-clean mechanism and standard metallic wiper. The top-flange cartridge-type version is designed specifically for space-saving manifold mounting.Available in four clamp sizes, double acting only, each with either a standard clamping arm with swivel contact bolt, a long clamping arm for customization, or without a clamping arm for a user-manufactured arm.
Clamping Action
Applying fluid pressure to the A (clamping) port advances the piston, which is connected to the clamping arm. The arm moves forward as it pivots into position via a linkage. Switching pressure to the B (unclamping) port positively retracts the piston and the attached clamping arm.
Design Considerations
The ideal clamping height in most cases is "H", because arm motion is totally vertical at that height. This avoids applying any horizontal force to the workpiece during clamping.
Mounting & Fluid Supply
Fasten clamp with four socket-head cap screws. Threaded-cartridge clamps have O-ring seals on their outside diameter, so they require a precision mounting hole. Do not use NPT fittings.
Optional Position Sensing
Monitoring devices can be turned to any of the four sides.
