Challenge:
A customer was looking for a compact design that could produce high forces in a clamping application. Solutions they had tried from other companies were causing the parts to be scratched when they were clamped.
Solution:
Bimba developed a diaphragm actuator with short overall height, allowing the cylinder to fit into the customers tight space envelope, providing minimal friction. The design allows parts to be clamped without marking the surface. This reduced the amount of scrap and increased the company’s sales and margins.
Benefits:
- Lots of force in a small package
- Minimal friction
Able to clamp without marking surface of product
Other Applications:
- Clamping
- Conveyor Stop
- Packaging
