Description
Description
Introducing the revolutionary new air-actuated PFA620 5-Axis vise. Unlike any other pneumatic vise, the Kurt PFA620 allows manual full-stroke adjustment on parts of varying sizes combined with air opening and closing for solid and consistent part holding. Designed to be versatile and user friendly, the PFA620 lets an operator quickly manually clamp a large or small part using the hex screw and handle to set the jaws and then clamp the part with the .25″ pneumatic stroke. This time-saving design speeds setups and changeovers while still allowing for the precision and power of pneumatic clamping.
NOTE: When clamping parts, only use the hex to pre-position the jaws. Tighten to approximately 0.06 inch from touching the part, then use pneumatics to clamp the part.
Based on the design of our popular RV36 Gripper, The PFA620 operates with an oversized diaphragm for maximum clamping force and smooth operation. The vise has quick-change 4-inch-wide jaws that snap on and off without tools and are available in a machinable design.
The new Kurt PFA620 can be mounted directly to a machine table with four through bolts. Setting up a semi-automated system operated remotely requires only shop air, a Kurt filter regulator lubricator unit, some tubing and a switch. Additional parts can be added to create a fully automated setup using additional solenoids and a machine tool controller, robot, or PLC.
