Work Support, 1,650 lbs Capacity, 0.39" Stroke, Manifold Mount
The Enerpac WFM71 is work support with a manifold mount style that provides a support force capacity of 1650 lbs. and a stroke of 0.39". This work support enables the plunger to stay retracted until pressure is applied, allowing unobstructed loading. It has a low-pressure lock-up capability that enables the use of machine tool hydraulic systems and high-rated support capacities that allow for a more compact fixture design.
This work support is made from corrosion-resistant materials that are compatible with most coolants and environments. The threaded and manifold air vent ports allow fixturing that prevents coolants and debris from being ingested into the mechanism. This work support has minimized deflection, which increases machining accuracy. Multiple mounting configurations are available for design flexibility.
Support force and clamping force must be matched. The support force should be at least 150% of the clamping force. Do not exceed maximum flow rates to avoid premature lockup. Always put work support overload.
Enerpac's work supports provide either additional non-fixed location points to the clamps, or support to larger or thin section workpiece components, always in order to minimize workpiece deflection during machining.
