ETDC travelling die clamps
The EAS travelling die clamp (ETDC) is intended to automatically clamp tools on the upper bed of the press. The movement of the clamp is by electric power, clamping is done by hydraulic power.
Die clamping systems of this type are connected to a chain and driven by an electric motor. ETDCs belong to the group of die change automation equipment that reduces set-up times (SMEDs). The ETDC can be equipped with three different hydraulic clamps. This allows flexible solutions on stamping presses and vertical injection molding machines.
Key Points
- Especially designed for large stamping presses with non-standardized die back-plates
- Travel stroke max 800mm
- Suitable for pull clamping cylinders as well as T-slot clamps
- For automatic QDC applications
Application
Die traveling clamps are commonly used on large stamping presses with various die sizes. These clamps allow automatic clamping of different sizes of large dies, especially on the slide. The slide is usually mounted with eight to sixteen of these clamps.
Advantages
- Fits in any T-slot (according to DIN 650); versatile in application
- Very suitable to retrofit; flexible in practice
- Ordering overview; quick and simple ordering
- Single piece construction; fast
