TANDEM KSP is a Miracle in Precision

Clamping force blocks are a classic among stationary clamping systems. SCHUNK now presents a major development with the TANDEM KSP plus. The multi-tooth guidance of the base jaws, the long jaw guidance, and the exact centering via the clamping sleeves help reduce jaw lifting. This way, the TANDEM KSP plus achieves a repeat accuracy of up to 0.01 mm.

The compact clamping force block with its one-piece, extremely rigid base body achieves gripping forces of up to 60 kN. The TANDEM KSP plus also has an integrated piston lubrication system. Its compact chip-deflecting shape and wear-resistant parts make it remarkably sturdy and practically maintenance-free.

The new TANDEM KSP plus clamping force block from SCHUNK is available in sizes 100mm, 160mm and 250mm.
