Enclosed Power Clamps



Each of the four sizes of DE-STA-CO's new 82M-3E power clamps is available with a hand lever on the right or left side for applications requiring manual loading.

The new 82M-3E Series of enclosed pneumatic power clamps are designed to provide automotive and sheet metal processing customers with enhanced holding power in a versatile package.

The new 82M-3E Series of enclosed pneumatic power clamps from DE-STA-CO are intended to provide automotive and sheet metal processing customers with enhanced holding power in a versatile, user-friendly and low-maintenance package, according to the company.

This full line of lightweight aluminum power clamps includes four sizes: 40 mm, 50 mm, 63 mm and 80 mm. The 82M-3E Series is designed for a number of applications, including manual and automated fixture welding, positioning and locating.

All of DE-STA-CO's 82M-3E Series power clamps feature infinite arm opening adjustment with opening angle range from 0° to 135°. The angle is easily adjusted from behind the clamp. "Not only does this design feature save time, it also means 82M-3E power clamps require less space, allowing fixtures in which they are installed to be lighter and more ergonomic than those equipped with other clamps," said a company spokesperson. "The 82M-3E's sensors never need adjustment, even when the opening angle is changed, providing additional time savings."

Each of the 82M-3E Series clamps is available with a hand lever on the right or left side for applications requiring manual loading. The levers feature the DE-STA-CO red handle and are adjustable for improved ergonomics.

"To provide long life with minimal maintenance, each 82M-3E Series clamp features an enclosed body, sealed needle bearings and a completely enclosed sensor to prevent the intrusion of dust or debris," said the spokesperson. "Repairs are simplified by the sensor cartridge's two-part design, which makes it possible to replace only the damaged component instead of the entire cartridge."
