The OHMA Piercing cylinder operates using an "air over
oil " intensification principle to produce non-shock force.
This method of operation allows the cylinder to remain compact
and provides numerous advantages to metalworking applications:
- Low
impact (non shock) advance to the work to minimize tool
skidding, breakage and wear as well as part deformation
- Fully
controllable force output to match specific applications
- Compact
construction to minimize air consumption and allow the
cylinder to be positioned in confined work spaces
- Automatic
compensation for variable part positions
- Simple
construction and operation for ease of use and minimal
maintenance
The
standard OHMA Piercing cylinder is supplied in the following
range of styles/specifications:
| Bore
Size |
2"
to 8" |
*Ratio |
79:1 to 1700:1 (thirteen standard ratios are available) |
Stroke |
1-1/2" to 8" |
Mounting
|
a variety of mounting styles are available
|
| Rod
Style |
male
and female threaded, straight, custom |
*The
ratio is the force multiplication factor that is used to
determine the force generated by the cylinder. For example, a
156:1 ratio OHMA piercing cylinder produces forces equal to 156
times the incoming air pressure. This means that operating the
cylinder using 55 psi will produce (55 x 156) 8580 lbs. of
force. Operating the same cylinder at 70 psi will produce (70 x
156) 10920 lbs. of force.
CenterLine
now has a product configurator for its OHMA®
Piercing Cylinders. This program takes the user through the
selection process, from force calculation to the selection of a
fluid reservoir.
