DESTACO 82L3G-203B800 Pneumatic Power Clamp with Sensor, 1596 lb Holding Capacity

Destaco 82L3G-203B800 pneumatic power clamp is suitable for a variety of clamping, gripping, tensioning and locating applications in the aerospace, automotive and food & packaging industries. It is ideal for positioning and holding items securely. This enclosed clamp has a lightweight aluminium body to reduce operator fatigue and steel arm for increased strength & durability. It is designed with precision and is specifically intended for harsh welding environments that demand superior clamping power. Furthermore, this clamp is integrated with hardened rivets & bushings at pivot points to fix, rotate & move the handle bar for the required work position, as well as it operates on a maximum clamp arm pressure of 120 psi by offering holding torque of 133 lb. It has a pneumatic cylinder with an input port for connecting to a source of compressed air and comes with a patented Toggle Lock Plus mechanism for locking clamp in the fixed position if sudden pressure drop or hose disconnection is detected. This safety feature also ensures that the over-centre locking condition is maintained and the clamp remains protected against unintentional opening. It is supplied with a horizontal U clamp arm (centrally positioned for firm clamping) and includes sensors for position sensing. Destaco 82L3G-203B800 pneumatic power clamp can handle a maximum load of 1596 lb at temperatures ranging from -14 to 195 degrees Fahrenheit, offer an opening angle of 105 degrees and be easily mounted on the surface from front, sides or back.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. How to choose the right straight line action clamp?

A. Destaco clamps have steel or stainless steel construction and are available in variants having flange, narrow flange, straight & solid base mounting style for easy installation. These clamps are available in varying holding capacities to denote the maximum external force that a clamp in the locked position can resist safely, without getting deformed permanently. Straight line action clamps also feature imperial or metric plunger threads for secure installation. The customers should choose clamps on the basis of distance travelled by plungers in their extended position.

Q. How to specify the right power clamp for a particular application?

A. The most important consideration is the size of the component that you're clamping, the amount of space available in the production process and what kind of access you need to have around the clamp. If you are clamping a very small component and you need to hold it close to the clamp, clearly a smaller clamp will be required. Secondly, one needs to consider the distance between the pivot point and the length of the clamp arm and the weight of the tooling. In addition, the user must also consider the amount of clamp force or the holding force you need the clamp to apply.

Q. Why would you need a power clamp?

A. Destaco power clamps are specially designed for use in automated manufacturing processes where the requirement is to accurately clamp components repeatedly, quickly and accurately. They are suited for applications where there is limited or no access to manually activate the clamp either because of space limitation (manual access isn't possible) or because the clamp is located remotely.

Q. Is it right to check the specifications?

A. By checking the specifications, you can ascertain the toggle clamp capacity, so it is a firm yes. The product specifications from the manufacturer consist of enough information about the throat depth and jaw opening. You can also ask our dedicated procurement team for an accurate guide.

Q. Does Destaco supply any water-resistant clamp sensors?

A. Yes, Destaco also supplies inductive sensors designed especially in accordance with IP65 standards to ensure protection from powerful hydraulic jets, dust & heavy rain.
