Description

The grip is a single acting hydraulic vice with manual adjustment of the opposing jaw face. This arrangement allows asymmetric samples to be held centrally in the machine. Flat or round jaws are available as standard. Flat jaws are pyramid cut with 1.5mm pitch teeth, finer teeth for hard specimens can be supplied on request. We can also supply other faces such as waved, rubber coated, aluminium or hard faced if required.

The standard power pack is pneumatically driven, producing 350bar at 6 bar of pneumatic pressure. Maximum air pressure is 8 bar which gives a clamping force of 333kN. Grips are controlled by separate valves allowing each grip to be closed independently. An alternative arrangement is offered which requires both hands to close the grips, improving operator safety. With this arrangement the optional sample holder is required. An electrically driven pump is available if an air supply is not available.

The sample holder is a vice arrangement which holds the sample centrally in the grips while the grips are closed, it clips to the static jaw on the lower grip. The sample holder only works with rigid samples.
