Pascal Standard Die Clamps

Overview

The Pascal Die Clamp line offers powerful, rugged clamping solutions built for demanding production environments. Designed to deliver high clamping force, long service life, and ease of use, these clamps are ideal for stamping, die-casting, and injection-molding operations that require fast, accurate, and safe die changes.

Key Features

• High Clamping Force & Rigidity
  • Strong clamping action backed by robust frames; designed to withstand impact and heavy loads.
• Large Clamping Stroke
  • Generous stroke lengths to accommodate varying die heights; helps with faster changeovers and better fit.
• Durability in Harsh Conditions
  • Built to resist heat, vapor, splashes of release agents, and dust. Surface treatments, non-breathing cylinders, dust seals contribute to longevity.
• Safety & Automation Options
  • Models are available with sensors for die detection, backward end detection, and automatic sliding (auto-slide) features to reduce manual work and increase safety.
• Wide Range of Models / Types
  • Many series available including TXA, TXC (auto-slidable), TYA, TYC, Twist Clamp (TGC), Air-driven swing rod clamp (TNA), lever types, etc.
• Modular / Customizable
  • Optional auto-sliders, special configurations to match T-slot and die shoe dimensions, and custom spec clamps are available.

Product Line / Models

Here are some of the main Pascal clamp types, with highlights for when they may be the right fit:

• TXA Series – Hydraulic cylinder type; rugged, good for general-purpose clamping.
• TXC – TXA plus auto slide; automates the sliding of the clamp for faster setup.
• TYA / TYC – Lever-type clamps; TYC includes auto-slidable options.
• TGC (New Twist Clamp) – Twisting action clamp for specialty applications.
• TNA – Air-driven swing rod clamp.

Applications & Benefits

• Slash die change time: Auto-slide and sensor options reduce manual work and enable faster, safer die swaps.
• Reduce risk of safety incidents: With sensors for detection and interlocks, die clamps prevent misplacement and ensure the clamps are correctly engaged before operating.
• Improve uptime & lifespan: Durable designs and materials mean less maintenance, fewer failures under tough conditions.
• Greater flexibility: Across different die shapes, sizes, and press types (T-slot, U-cut, etc.), Pascal offers models to match.

Technical Specifications (Examples)

Here are sample specs from a few Pascal clamp models. Use these to guide your selection; for exact match, specify your die dimensions (die shoe height, T-slot size, etc.).

How to Choose the Right Pascal Clamp

1. Determine the required clamping force — based on die size, material, press tonnage, safety margins.
2. Measure your die shoe & T-slot dimensions — height, width, presence of U-cuts, etc.
3. Consider stroke requirements — how much clamp travel you’ll need, safety stroke included.
4. Specify safety / automation features — sensors, auto sliding, interlocks to reduce manual labor & risk.
5. Check environmental conditions — heat, vapor, splash, dust; these may call for options like non-breathing cylinders, surface treatments, dust seals.

Why Pascal Clamps Are Trusted

• Long track record: thousands of installations worldwide across stamping, die casting, injection molding.
• Built for harsh duty: designed to endure heat, release agents, frequent changeover demands.
• Safety built in: sensors & interlocks ensure clamp engagement before operation.
