Jergens Pull Studs Enable Quick Changeovers
SP140 and K02 pull studs offer quick-change solutions for vise or gripper jaws, electronic component manufacturing, packaging machines, medical technology and automation.
Jergens now offers two new ZPS installation choices for compact, light-duty applications. SP140 and K02 pull studs use pneumatics and a mechanical spring in a small package. They are designed to offer quick-change solutions for vise or gripper jaws, electronic component manufacturing, packaging machines, medical technology and automation.
SP140, which is said to be the smallest clamping module on the market, features a threaded body for low profile installation. No external fasteners or clamps are needed for securing in a plate. This enables flexible mounting options, and pneumatic pressure can be supplied manifold-style through the subplate or through external lines ported into the bottom of the module. The pull studs are offered in Zero Point, timing and clearance configurations, similar to larger ZPS systems.
SP140 and K02 are part of the ZPS offerings that use either pneumatic or hydraulic modules to fix, position and clamp all in one step. Additionally, ZPS ensures repeatability of up to 0.0002", and reduces cycle times by up to 90%. Users quickly and accurately locate and clamp vises or fixtures, or if preferred, attach retention studs to workpieces and then direct mount components for machining or welding, avoiding potential interference from jaws or clamps.
