Description
ZERO POINT CLAMPING SYSTEM
STARK.classic.NG
Single-acting, hydraulic or pneumatic

STARK.classic.NG clamping elements are clamped with spring force and released hydraulically or pneumatically. Both hydraulic-releasing and pneumatic-releasing clamping elements are designed with zero point. A third-hand function is possible with hydraulic-releasing clamping elements. STARK.classic.NG clamping elements are also available with indexing and/or coolant outlet.

Special features of the STARK.classic.NG product family:

  • lifting: STARK.classic lifts the pallet upon release
  • simple: easy to clean
  • precise: due to cylindrical fit
  • durable: press-fitted bolts
  • versatile: clamping control, seat check, blow-out, media duct

Benefits & Advantages

The STARK.classic.NG product family consists of three sizes STARK.classic.NG.1, STARK.classic.NG.2 & STARK.classic.NG.3 and offers a wide range of features and benefits.

Functions

Hydraulic-releasing elements

STARK.classic.NG clamping elements are clamped with spring force and released hydraulically or pneumatically. Both hydraulic-releasing and pneumatic-releasing clamping elements are designed with zero point. A third-hand function is possible with hydraulic-releasing clamping elements. STARK.classic.NG clamping elements are also available with indexing and/or coolant outlet.

Pneumatic-releasing elements

The pneumatic versions of the STARK.classic.NG product family are a useful addition to the hydraulic-releasing clamping elements. Particularly suitable for applications with low machining forces such as measuring machines, assembly applications or cleaning systems. For example, a device that has been clamped for machining with hydraulic-releasing clamping elements can be clamped easily and quickly for intermediate measurements or assembly work with pneumatic-releasing clamping elements.

Hydraulic or pneumatic release:

  • The piston (2) is subjected to the pressure (1) and moves upwards. The spring assembly (3) is compressed.
  • The balls (4) in the ball retainer (5) move outwards to the parking position.
  • The retractable nipple (6) moves into the fast closing clamp until it rests against the piston crown.
  • The retractable nipple (6) is pre-positioned.

 

Mechanical clamping:

  • The system is relieved and the pressure drops to 0 bar.
  • The spring pre-tensioning force is initiated via the piston (2) which moves down.
  • The fit is joined and the retractable nipple (9) is positioned with high precision.
  • The balls (8) lie form-fitted between the piston and the retractable nipple in the contour provided.
  • The pre-tensioning force of the springs (7) now acts directly and permanently downwards on the retractable nipple.
