Pascal Die Clamping and Change System

Products

Pascal is a die change system maker known for its hydraulic clamps and air-driven high-pressure pumps. Hydraulic clamps for the bolster and slide T-slots, traveling clamps that move to the die width, die lifters, pre-rollers and the control units that drive them cover the whole press changeover.

Hydraulic clamps (for dies with U-cut)

Hydraulic clamps inserted in the bolster/slide T-slot that clamp the U-cut of the die: manual-slide TXA and auto-slide TXC (air) / TXE (motor).

TXAPascal clamp

Hydraulic clamp inserted in the T-slot to clamp the U-cut of the die. Clamp hook FX is available for temporary placement. (QDC catalog p.28)

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Hydraulic 24.5MPa

TXCAuto-slide clamp (air)

Slides in the T-slot automatically with an air cylinder, cutting die change time further. (QDC catalog p.37)

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Hydraulic 24.5MPa

TXEAuto-slide clamp (motor)

Motor-driven auto-slide clamp that leaves the whole slide underside usable. (QDC catalog p.37)

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Hydraulic 24.5MPa

Hydraulic clamps (for dies without U-cut)

Lever-type hydraulic clamps for dies that cannot have a U-cut: manual-slide TYA and air auto-slide TYC.

TYAPascal clamp (lever type)

Lever-type clamp inserted in the T-slot and slid by hand, for dies that cannot have a U-cut. (QDC catalog p.84)

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Hydraulic 24.5MPa

TYCAuto-slide clamp (lever type)

Lever-type clamp that auto-slides in the T-slot with an air cylinder. (QDC catalog p.102)

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Hydraulic 24.5MPa

Traveling clamps

Clamps mounted on the slide face that travel to the die width automatically, for unattended die change on large presses.

TRXTraveling clamp (motor)

Motor-driven traveling clamp with a short projection from the slide face. (QDC catalog p.74)

TRTraveling clamp TR series

Traveling clamps proven on presses up to the 30,000 kN class; the clamps travel to the die width automatically.

TRDShort-stroke traveling clamp

Withstands press vibration and shock; slim body with little projection from the slide face keeps wiring and piping tidy.

Die lifters and die rollers

Inserted in the bolster T-slots to float the die so it slides with little force: hydraulic DLF and spring-type DRA.

DLFDie lifter

Lifts heavy dies off the bolster with hydraulic cylinders so they slide smoothly. (QDC catalog p.113)

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Hydraulic 24.5MPa

DRADie roller

Spring-loaded rollers lift the die without a hydraulic source; just insert into the bolster T-slot. (QDC catalog p.135)

Pre-rollers and pre-roller stands

Rollers fitted to the bolster front for loading and unloading dies, plus rigid stands for heavy dies.

PRPre-roller

Rollers mounted on the bolster front for easy loading and unloading of dies. (QDC catalog p.139)

PRMPre-roller stand

Far stiffer than pre-rollers with little deflection under die weight, for smooth handling of heavy dies. (QDC catalog p.199)

Control systems

Control units, power units and non-leak valve units for the clamps and die lifters, built around the air-driven Pascal pump that produces 24.5 MPa hydraulic pressure.

HCSControl unit (small / medium presses)

Air-driven hydraulic control unit with electric (solenoid) control, combining the Pascal pump and non-leak valve compactly. (QDC catalog p.223)

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Air 0.47MPa → Hydraulic 24.5MPa

HCPControl unit (medium / large presses)

HCS model for medium and large presses. (QDC catalog p.225)

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Air 0.47MPa → Hydraulic 24.5MPa

HUTPower unit

Power source using the compact, high-performance Pascal pump that generates 24.5 MPa from compressed air. (QDC catalog p.229)

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Air 0.47MPa → Hydraulic 24.5MPa

VHANon-leak valve unit (manual)

Manually operated valve unit with the zero-leak function essential for hydraulic clamps. (QDC catalog p.227)

VSBNon-leak valve unit (electric)

Electrically controlled non-leak valve unit, used together with the HUT power unit. (QDC catalog p.231)

GSHAir solenoid valve unit

Electrically controlled air directional valve for the air cylinders of the TXC / TYC auto-slide clamps. (QDC catalog p.233)

Magnetic clamps

Electro-permanent magnetic clamps that hold any die shape over the whole bolster/slide face, ideal for high-speed presses, with die-shift detection.

MGPPress mag clamp

Magnetic clamp that holds any die shape over the full face, ideal for high-speed presses, with residual-flux springs and die-shift detection cores.

Swing-rod and twist clamps

Clamps whose rod swings clear of the die during loading: air-operated TNA for upper dies and the twist-mechanism TGC.

TNARod-swing clamp (air-operated)

Air-operated clamp whose rod swings clear during die loading; a strong spring keeps the die held even with zero air pressure. Ideal for upper dies.

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Clamp force 39 / 69 / 108kN

TGCTwist clamp

Clamp that rotates the rod with a twist mechanism to lock the die securely, in three sizes of 61 / 99 / 164 kN.

Key specifications

Action / pressure: Clamp force 61 / 99 / 164kN
