Tool Overview
This machine is designed to automatically install clamps with repeatability and control.
• The tool consists of a tension system and a cutting system, both pneumatically
controlled.
• The pneumatic system can be adjusted to provide appropriate clamp force for different
applications. As the tension pressure is increased, the output force of the tool increases.
• After a clamp tail is inserted into the tool the trigger is activated to begin tensioning.
• During the tension cycle, the tool continues to tension the band until the pre-set tension is
achieved.
• After the tool has achieved the preset tension, a valve activates the lock forming and tail
cutoff cycle.
• The gripping system retains force on the clamp until after the lock forming and tail cutoff
actions are complete.
Benefits to using an IT tool on the TIE-LOK® or JR® S.I.D. clamp include:
•
Capable of fast installation ~2-5 seconds in high volume production setting.
•
Versatility to install clamps in various positions with one tool at the same work station.
•
Ability to install clamps close to flanges and in difficult to access locations.
•
Simple energy source (compressed air) and easy to use controls.
