TuffCam ™ Swing Clamps
Features
Clamp Time and Fluid Flow Rates for TuffCam ™ Swing Clamps high-speed, precise positioning and/or heavy arm applications. These tri-cam design clamps can position and clamp in less than one second and handle larger arms than VersaCam ™ Swing Clamps. One of the keys to this innovation is the patented Cam Follower Ball Seat that was developed to improve strength and wear. Using the patented Vektek V-Groove technology, a Tungsten Carbide ball for strength and wear, and an elastomer spring, these clamps have reduced static friction for improved clamp breakaway and reduced dynamic friction for improved life. Available in these body styles: - Top Flange - Top Flange Long Stroke - Bottom Flange - Bottom Flange Long Stroke - Low Profile Top Flange - Low Profile Bottom Flange - Low Profile Rod Position Sensing - Low Profile Magnetic Position Sensing Available as single or double acting clamps. The TuffCam ™ design includes three cams for more accurate arm positioning, smoother rotation and lower per cam surface contact pressure. BHC ™ (Black Hard Coating) on the cylinder bodies helps prevent scoring and scratching. Arm clocking feature uses standard Vektek arms. Same mounting envelope as Standard VektorFlo ® Swing Clamps.

The above flows are maximum recommendations and clamp times are minimum recommendations. - For upreach and double arms, use extended arm flows and times. - When using custom arms the extended arm flows and times are to be considered the limiting factor. - The actual time to position the clamp will vary by custom arm configuration and may require customer testing in specific application to establish limits.
