Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. How to specify the right power clamp for a particular application?

A. The most important consideration is the size of the component that you're clamping, the amount of space available in the production process and what kind of access you need to have around the clamp. If you are clamping a very small component and you need to hold it close to the clamp, clearly a smaller clamp will be required. Secondly, one needs to consider the distance between the pivot point and the length of the clamp arm and the weight of the tooling. In addition, the user must also consider the amount of clamp force or the holding force you need the clamp to apply.

Q. Why would you need a power clamp?

A. Destaco power clamps are specially designed for use in automated manufacturing processes where the requirement is to accurately clamp components repeatedly, quickly and accurately. They are ideal for applications where there is limited or no access to manually activate the clamp either because of space limitation (manual access isn't possible) or because the clamp is located remotely.

Q. Is it right to check the specifications?

A. By checking the specifications, you can ascertain the toggle clamp capacity, so it is a firm yes. The product specifications from the manufacturer consist of enough information about the throat depth and jaw opening. You can also ask our dedicated procurement team for an accurate guide.
