Universal Holding Fixture (UHF)

KOSTYRKA^® Universal Holding Fixture - The principle

 The individual elements of the fixture are composed of an axially adjustable piston rod in a housing. The rod can be clamped in any position via a KOSTYRKA^® clamping sleeve. Depending on the drive concept for moving the piston rod, a distinction is made for the UHF (Universal Holding Fixture) elements between active (with drive) and passive elements. Diameter from 50 mm and stroke length up to 800 mm and over. The layout of the dimensions takes place through close teamwork with the customer in order to meet his desired criteria.

Component-dependent or universal:

When manufacturing free form parts, workpiece-dependent fixtures are often used today. This means the complete fixture must be changed each time the workpiece is changed. This in turn involves new design and production of the fixture, as well as storage, set-up and logistics costs. These are costs that can be saved in most cases. With a KOSTYRKA^® UHF: The part is changed – the fixture remains.
