Double-acting back-pressure-resistant compact work support. Ensuring release action with hydraulic pressure, it is suitable for automation systems. It can control release action via hydraulic pressure, enabling a shorter cycle time. The support’s collet design provides a powerful gripping force through a wedge effect. In addition, a larger gap between the collet and the plunger is designed to prevent sticking and allow smoother action. The load applied to the workpiece is soft, with only the plunger spring force. As the collet gripping the plunger is always pressed downwards by “elastic spacer”, it helps prevent tilting when locked and the clearance with the workpiece. It can also be used in various environments where back pressure is likely to occur, with features like an exclusive scraper to prevent the accumulation of dust such as cutting chips, and a knockout function to release adherence after a long-time machine stop.
