At the very latest when, because of a power failure (intentional or not) or a malfunction something has to be done to safeguard man and machine, Ratio-Clamp® from Hänchen is just what you need.
Boasting a retention force of up to 450 kN, the clamp hydraulic holds the piston rod in whatever position it is in at that particular moment. Without having to rustle up some extra power (no extra energy) and for an unlimited period of time.
The clamping device Ratio-Clamp® is approved by the German Technical Inspection Agency (TÜV). Nor does the development of specific solutions (larger rod diameters, intermediate sizes, greater clamping forces…) pose a problem to the Hänchen specialists.
Hänchen is particularly proud of its RC-H model. Following a request from the Berufsgenossenschaftliche Zentrale für Sicherheit und Gesundheit – BGZ, Fachausschuss Eisen und Metall III, Düsseldorf (The Health and Safety Centre of the Employers’ Liability Association, iron and metal section III, Düsseldorf), Hänchen developed the new safety clamping hydraulic Ratio-Clamp® under extreme conditions for use with hydraulic presses and injection moulding machines.
