Intrductin What is a Tggle lamp? Tggle clamp is a simple echanism which hlds instantly. The Tggle lamps nsist f a handle t perate, a lamping rm t Reach the wrk piece, linkages fr multiplying the applied frce, and a base fr munting at the wrkplace n it s base. The handle is perated which thereby mves the clamping arm t hld the wrk piece. required clamping frce is achieved and exerted n the wrk piece. Under this actin the Tggle lamp lds the wrk piece firmly and psitively. andle inkages Tggle ctin rce actrs: lamping arm lding apacity: The hlding capacity mentined fr each clamp refers t the maximum frce, which the clamp can withstand after being vercentered withut damage t the clamp and withut the tggle unlcking due t distrtin f the clamp. ase Spindle fr pressure adjustment The ver-center dimensin is carefully chsen in relatin t the elasticity f the clamp t maximize clamping frce while ensuring that the clamp lcks clsed even under vibratin r intermittent lading. r ld wn lamps, hlding capacity is measured with the spindle at the farthest end f the clamping arm and will increase as the spindle ges clser t the clamping arm. e nd a c r e g pin c r m lamping rce: la lamping rce, the amunt f frce actually applied t the wrk piece by clsing and lcking the clamp, is generally less than the stated hlding capacity. ctual clamping frce depends n many factrs including; spindle psitin, prper spindle height adjustment, spindle cushining, wrk piece material and the clamps mechanical advantage. In mst cases, rughly 1/3rd f the stated hlding capacity can be applied by hand with medium effrt. g ldin ce r Tggle rinciple: Tggle actin clamps perate thrugh a linkage system f levers and pivts. The fixed length levers, cnnected by pivt pins supply the actin and clamping frce. Tggle actin has an ver centre lck pint which is a fixed stp and linkage. Once in the ver centre psitin, the clamp cannt mve r unlck unless the linkage is mved. ll types f tggle clamps have same actin, just riented differently. The Tggle echanism in a clamp has three functins. 1) T multiply applied lad at the handle int a high clamping frce t hld the wrk piece. 2) T create an ver - centre lck t prevent the clamp frm pening & releasing the wrk piece until pened by the peratr. 3) T rapidly pen & clse the clamp giving a maximum clearance in which t lad & unlad the wrk piece.

Types f Tggle lamps Types Of Tggle ctins This catalgue cntains abut 0 different standard tggle clamps & clamping systems. Steel-Smith has develped its range f clamps & clamping equipments fr infinite applicatins, cnsidering the different shapes, sizes, hlding capacity, peratr's psitin & strength, frequency f peratin etc. st f the Tggle lamps belng t ne f the fllwing five main actins grups, which are: Vertical ld wn ctin : (VT- Series) s the name implies clamps f this type hld the wrk piece with a dwnward clamping actin. These clamps are manufactured with a hlding capacity up t 00 kgs. The clamping exhibits a minimum f pening angle giving full clearance fr lading & unlading f wrkpiece. lamping arm can be slid bar, U shaped r fixed hle t suit individual requirements. ull ctin lamps : (-Series) Steel-Smith's ull ctin lamps are designed fr sealing chambers, drs, muld clsures r ther such applicatins requiring clsure mechanisms.
