5 Function
The VERO-S NSL3 clamping station guarantees rapid changing of
VERO-S clamping pallets, devices or workpieces in the machine
room with a high level of repeat accuracy. In the VERO-S quick-
change pallet modules, the clamping pallet is positioned and
locked via the related VERO-S clamping pin.
5.1 Connections on the clamping station
The VERO-S clamping station is actuated using an air connection
with sealing nipple and sealing coupling. The sealing nipple is
included in the accessory pack for the clamping station. The
locking couplings are not included in the scope of delivery of the
clamping station. The required locking coupling required is the
industry standard-size NW 7.4. The scope of delivery also includes
a pneumatic plug-in connection with a nominal hose diameter of 4
mm or 6 mm as an alternative connection option.
CAUTION
The pressure chambers of the quick-change pallet modules must
be able to vent during actuation.
• When using customer-specific air connection plug-in systems.
Use sealing nipples without shut-off function (with an open
through-hole) to vent the clamping module piston chambers.
• The corresponding valves, sound absorbers or shut-off valves
should be fitted with a ventilation function.
CAUTION
When disconnecting hose lines, the relevant air connections
(sealing nipples) must be closed with seal plugs to prevent the
ingress of dirt or cooling lubricant. The attachable seal plugs are
made of plastic and are included in the scope of delivery.
5.2 Unlocking connection
If the unlocking connection on the clamping station is pressurized
with compressed air, all modules are unlocked simultaneously.
Clamping pallets, devices and workpieces can be exchanged or
removed from the clamping station.
Since VERO-S NSE3 clamping modules are spring-operated
clamping systems, the connection must remain pressurized with
compressed air (at least 5 bar) during the set-up / changing
process.
After decoupling the air supply at the unlocking connection, all
clamping modules are locked simultaneously. The exchanged
clamping pallet is firmly fastened and aligned with high precision.
If no clamping pallet is used in the clamping station, the clamping
