Speedy solution for job clamping
Tork has developed novel single-piece solution for job clamping that can be used to clamp work pieces up to 60mm in height.
The basic application is to absorb uncontrolled energy that could result into a impact in a system.
Controlled linear deceleration allows increased operating speeds, higher equipment productivity, reduced maintenance, reduced noise pollution and minimised reaction forces.
These shock absorbers are hydraulic, and feature a tuning knob to adjust their deceleration (or hardness level).
Their low cost and superior quality provide an edge over existing conventional solutions.
Most sizes are available ex-stock or can be delivered within a week.
