Flange clamp
The flange clamp was developed for special body framework applications and as a customised solution for our regional customers. This clamp is a modified version of the well-known Alpha clamps, APH 50, APH 40 and the miniature clamp K 25.

More energy efficiency through Eco clamps
The ongoing discussion about the climate killer CO2 has increased the sensitivity to the topic energy consumption in production. With more than 1,000 operating cycles per day, pneumatic clamps virtually run marathons in the production lines. Anybody who moves a lot burns a lot of energy; hence, the pneumatic clamps account for a considerable degree of energy consumption in car body manufacturing with more than 1,000 to 2,000 units per production line.

Multi-force cylinder instead of high pressure network
The high pressure networks of 12 bar in the plants are used to generate high forces with standard pneumatic cylinders s. a. in welding application. Especially with a view to energy efficiency, high pressure networks are met with criticism, as the costs of the preparation of compressed air rise exponentially with the pressure.

About windmills and revolvers
The variety of car models drives the complexity within fixture construction and provides for processes which are difficult to control in practice. But how to simply clamp and position, if, due to different components, not only the sheet thickness but contour and relative position change?

Batteries for “Multi Model Plant”
In the future, not just one but several models are to be produced in a chaotic mix by means of one manufacturing system. Obviously this cannot be realised with standard production lines.
