The Pneumatic Lever Clamp Cylinder is a clamping actuator that uses compressed air as the driving source combined with a lever mechanism to convert force. Its main feature is the ability to amplify output force through the lever design, achieving strong clamping effect within a limited cylinder bore and stroke.
It is commonly applied in fixture designs for workpiece positioning and holding, providing stable clamping force while maintaining fast operation and high efficiency. Compared with hydraulic cylinders, pneumatic lever cylinders have a simpler structure, are easier to maintain, and offer lower cost, making them suitable for small to medium-sized workpieces or high-frequency operations.
Advantages of Pneumatic Lever Clamp Cylinder
1. Fast operation – Powered by compressed air, with quick response, ideal for frequent clamping.
2. High clamping efficiency – Lever mechanism amplifies force, ensuring secure workpiece holding.
3. Flexible installation – The clamping arm can be adjusted in different directions to fit various workpiece shapes.
4. Cost-effective – Pneumatic systems are widely used, with lower maintenance costs compared to hydraulic systems.
5. Installation method – Can be installed with a top flange or external threads. The cylinder can be fixed directly onto the fixture plate using screws, or secured with a lock nut. The cylinder height can be adjusted according to the workpiece height for greater flexibility.
Applications / Working Environments
1. CNC machine fixtures – Lathes, milling machines, machining centers for quick workpiece clamping and machining accuracy.
2. Automation production lines – Loading/unloading stations, transfer jigs, suitable for high-speed repetitive cycles.
3. Inspection and quality control stations – Holding workpieces during measurement or inspection to prevent displacement errors.
4. Electronics / precision assembly – For small and lightweight workpieces requiring stable positioning.
5. Sheet metal, aluminum, and plastic machining – Provides reliable clamping for thin or tall slender workpieces.
