The Bosch Rexroth CLAMPING ELEMENT MK 3005 AK (R161974260) is a state-of-the-art pneumatic clamping unit designed for ball rail systems. This highly efficient device can be utilized on all SNS ball guide rails, facilitating easy installation and providing both dynamic and static stabilization in the axial direction. The clamping element employs a simple mechanical gripping principle, which ensures an optimal balance between performance and cost. Constructed with a chemically nickel-plated steel housing, the unit boasts high axial and horizontal rigidity, ensuring precise positioning for various applications. The clamping operation is executed by pressing the clamping profiles to the web surfaces of the ball guide rail via a dual-acting gate valve gear mechanism, which is powered by compressed air. The pressure is continuously adjustable from 2 to 6 bar, allowing for customization based on specific requirements. For decompression, the MK 3005 AK features a preloaded return spring that enables short decompression cycles, enhancing operational efficiency with over 1 million clamping cycles (Bd value). It supports various sizes of profiled rail systems including H, E, d, N, A, B, and S series with corresponding runner block dimensions and thread diameters like M8. The unit's nominal size complements its robust design while maintaining an air consumption rate of only 0.17 liters per cycle at standard air port size. The permissible ambient temperature range for this device spans from -10°C to +80°C, making it versatile for different working environments. Additionally, its spring energy holding force is effective with standard air port pressure at 4 bar. The weight of the CLAMPING ELEMENT MK 3005 AK is modest at approximately 0.3 kg without compromising on performance or durability. In summary, Bosch Rexroth's CLAMPING ELEMENT MK 3005 AK offers reliable pneumatic clamping capabilities with high precision and rigidity suitable for diverse applications requiring linear motion control within profiled rail systems.
