Product Overview

In aluminum profile anodizing processes, clamps are not only used for fixing profiles but also play an important role in positioning accuracy, electrical contact consistency, and automated production efficiency.

Traditional manual clamps may experience differences caused by operator handling, clamping force variation, and frequent profile size changes. These factors can affect production repeatability in continuous anodizing lines.

The KRT-085 Pneumatic Anodizing Clamp is designed for aluminum profile surface treatment applications. It combines the functions of a pneumatic clamp and anodizing fixture, using pneumatic control to achieve automatic clamping and releasing operations.

With a compact structure, the KRT-085 features a 120mm overall length, 17mm static opening, and 78mm maximum opening, making it suitable for aluminum anodizing lines requiring flexible and automated clamping solutions.

Problem

Clamping Challenges in Automated Anodizing Lines

During aluminum anodizing production, clamps must operate continuously under chemical treatment environments and repeated production cycles.

1. Manual Operation Affects Clamping Consistency

Manual clamps rely on operators to control opening and closing actions.

Different operation habits may cause variations in positioning and clamping conditions.

2. Different Profile Sizes Require Flexible Clamping Range

Aluminum extrusion profiles are available in various shapes and dimensions.

A fixed-size clamp may not meet different production requirements, resulting in frequent fixture replacement.

3. Automated Lines Require Controlled Clamping Actions

Modern anodizing lines require clamps that can integrate with automatic equipment systems.

The clamp must support repeatable opening and closing operations through machine control.

Cause

Why Standard Clamps May Not Meet Automation Requirements

Anodizing clamps need to consider more than mechanical holding. They must support positioning accuracy, production rhythm, and equipment compatibility.

Important factors include:

1. Opening Range

The clamp opening determines profile compatibility.

The KRT-085 provides a 78mm maximum opening, allowing greater flexibility for different aluminum profile sizes.

2. Compact Installation Design

Production equipment often has limited installation space.

The KRT-085 features a 120mm overall length, supporting compact equipment integration.

3. Repeatable Pneumatic Operation

Pneumatic control allows production equipment to manage clamping actions consistently during continuous operation.
