Festo DNCKE Clamping-unit Cylinder

Clamping units are generally used for the friction locking of longitudinally variable rods at any position. The attachment of a clamping unit to a pneumatic cylinder allows the piston rod to be clamped. This clamping unit is designed to lock the piston rod securely so that the application of external force on the piston rod does not produce any relative motion. The locking of the piston rod can take place at any position in the stroke, in the end positions as well as the intermediate positions.
