Destaco 846 pneumatic hold down toggle clamp includes over-focus switch activity linkage joined with a pneumatic cylinder to deliver an effectively versatile device. This completely independent clamp requires just a pressure source for user safety. This Destaco pneumatic toggle clamp is sensor ready for both round and T slot style sensors. It includes in-built flow restriction to eliminate the need for external flow controls. This clamp accompanies a sturdy clamping arm for keeping workpieces safely set up and handling loads up to 750 lb. The clamping arm allows more extensive leeway to simple stacking utilising a tough helical cam component worked by a double acting air cylinder. It features a large opening angle that guarantees simple part evacuation.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. How does a pneumatic hold down toggle clamp work?
A. The toggle clamp actuates against the workpiece and stretches or compresses the equipped linkages for keeping the workpiece stationary.
Q. What does the clamp's holding capacity signify?
A. The holding capacity or holding force signifies the capability of a clamp to hold down mechanical equipment or sheet metal during automotive part assembling or similar manufacturing processes.
Q. What is the significance of the red colour of the handle of Destaco clamps?
A. There is no such significance of the red colour of the clamp handle, as it only depicts a recognisable area. This helps operators in finding the handle easily & quickly.
Q. What does clamping force mean?
A. Clamping force is the amount of force actually applied to the workpiece by closing & locking the clamp. It is normally less than the stated holding capacity. The actual clamping force depends on various factors, such as cylinder bore, cylinder area, spindle position (clamping arm length) and available air pressure. In most cases, the clamping force is approximately 2 to 3 times the force exerted by a pneumatic cylinder.
Q. How to measure the pressure required by a toggle clamp?
A. Destaco hold down toggle clamps apply downward clamping force by increasing the applied load via toggle mechanism. You can see the clamping force on the packaging itself, which is specified in Newton (N). Use this information with the size of the toggle clamp to work out the degree of pressure that the tool will have to exert on a piece of wood. The larger the piece of wood, the greater the pressure required.
