Work Supports

Spring Advance Specifications

For Supporting Most Parts n Spring Advance Work Supports are available in four capacities 4.4 kN to 55.6 kN. Each providing excellent support for light weight or heavy parts and in "hog out" applications. n When using the 3-2-1 locating principles, you often need additional support for a 4th, 5th or even more areas on your part. A work support gives you "floating" locators which won’t interfere with your 3, 2 or 1 fixed stops. Clamp opposite your locators then lock the supports. Even clamp over the supports if needed. n Spring extended plungers maintain contact with the part during loading exerting only spring force against the part; then hydraulically "freezes" the plunger without exerting any additional force on the part. Proprietary wiper and seal design reduces contamination and drag for longer lasting and better performing work supports. Stainless steel plunger and sleeve assemblies help guard against corrosion in most machining environments.

Special corrosion-resistant plungers and sleeves reduce the tendency to stick.

Precision fitted plunger/sleeve assemblies allow VektorFlo ® Metric work supports to begin locking at lower pressures and building support faster. If spring advance supports must be used in flood coolant environments (we recommend air advance) attach tubing to the vent port and route to clean-dry air to keep coolant from being drawn in and becoming sticky on internal surfaces. Standard G Series porting and alternate O-Ring manifold face seal is located in the base of the support for bolt down instillation. The base can be removed for direct cartridge mounting.

* Support capacities are listed at 350 bar (35 MPa) maximum operating pressure. Support capacities for other pressures must be determined by consulting the graphs at the start of Section B.

Minimum fluid pressure is 52 bar (5.2 MPa).

Note: DIN ISO 2768 T1 and T2 not applicable.

For minimum operating pressures and resulting capacities, see Model Capacity Charts.
