Power Jacks supply Omega Foundry Machinery with actuators that provide the clamping action to enable the manipulator to function. The moulds come in a range of sizes and the actuator can securely hold clamped any of the sizes for which the manipulator is dedicated. Clamping pad options on a mould manipulator provide secure clamping and accommodate simple pick and place operations and/or additional box pivot functionality. The single phase actuator with parallel mounted motor configuration and integral limit switches occupies a small space envelope. Yet its 7kN load capacity delivers ample performance, in various stroke lengths sufficient to accommodate a range of mould sizes.
The actuators have been supplied and successfully operated since 2004, during which time Power Jacks has provided a continuous after sales support service, which extends to maintaining spares availability, should they be required.
