Series SM Slides... Low Profile, Twice the Force |
|
If you're in need of a low profile saddle-style slide that still delivers on force, then take a look at PHD's Series SM Slide. Available in five bore sizes with a choice of three travel ranges, these versatile slides can carry typical loads from just a few ounces up to 70 pounds. Static loading capacities can be much greater to withstand forces that may be exerted while the unit is at rest.
 The Series SM is available with your choice of low cost polymer bearings or higher precision linear ball bushings for a higher loading capacity. With driving pistons contained within each of its two bearing bores, these slides can deliver twice the thrust of typical single bore slides. Fully integrated optional shock absorbers or travel adjustments with shock pads allow for easy adjustment of travel without increasing the overall package size.
Series SM Slides are available in both Imperial and Metric models for greater application flexibility in worldwide markets. An optional magnetic piston provides operation of PHD's Series JC1 Switches mounted in the grooves of the slide body. All units are offered with stainless steel fasteners as standard for superior corrosion resistance.

Hold on to your work, with PHD Workholding Clamps! | |
Do you create jigs or fixtures to hold your components or assemblies? Do you need to secure your product while you perform additional processes? Would you enjoy transferring your parts with the same clamping device you use to hold them in place? Then take a look at PHD Workholding Solutions.
If you're like most manufacturers you have to clamp your components in place while you drill, weld, bend, glue, trim or otherwise modify your product. With PHD Clamps to help automate the process, you can improve your productivity and increase your quality while reducing downtime and potential scrap. PHD's Series PA, PB, and PC Swing Arm Clamps are available in several bore sizes and with either left or right hand rotations, they will accommodate a wide variety of application needs.
Our Series PEC Arm Over Clamps provide the widest range of high clamping force in their class. And their unique locking cam design ensures part retention even if air pressure is lost. The enclosed design prevents particles or weld slag from entering the clamp mechanism.
The Series PLK and PLKD Pin Locating Clamps feature a completely enclosed pin and finger combination that protects against weld slag or other particle contamination. Their lightweight construction even allows them to be mounted on robots and used as transfer devices as well.
Whatever your jig or fixture requirements may be, take a look at PHD Workholding Solutions for the greatest versatility, best quality and fastest delivery in the clamping business. |
