Clamping device for continuous feeding of workpieces to machine tool, has clamping module comprising clamping jaw, closed circuit for hydraulic fluid, and clamping module operatively connected with closed circuit

摘要

The device has a clamping module comprising a clamping jaw. A connector (31) applies hydraulic fluid with compressed air, and a closed circuit is provided for the hydraulic fluid. The clamping module is operatively connected with the closed circuit, and reversibly fastened to a carrier. The closed circuit is arranged in the carrier. A pressure plate is accommodated in a clamping cylinder. The pressure plate is arranged at a free end of a clamping guide. A line for hydraulic fluid flow is arranged in a lower chamber and an upper chamber. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a pressurization device comprising a pneumatic cylinder (2) a method for operating a clamping module.
