SERAPID Escaping Arc Clamp for High-Temperature Applications

Press Release:
  Jul 29, 2011 — SERAPID, a leader in Quick Die eXchange (QDX) equipment and components, has a clamp specially suited for high-temperature applications.

The TBHS Escaping Arc Clamp is specifically designed for forging applications, where die swelling is an issue. It moves in an arced path (hence the name), so there is no risk of it sticking. This clamp is also well suited for automated systems, where sensing position is required.

It is available in a range of sizes, accommodating dies of two metric tons to 63 metric tons. Optional sensors are available to detect the clamped and unclamped positions. It can be installed on either the press bolster or ram, and features a mechanical safety detent so dies will not drop in the event of a pressure failure.

SERAPID offers a complete line of Quick Die Exchange (QDX) products ranging from components, such as die lifters and clamps, to die handling and transport equipment, such as die carts and push/pull systems.
