The Bosch Rexroth CLAMPING ELEMENT MK 3505 AK (R161934260) is a high-performance pneumatic clamping unit designed for use with ball rail systems. This robust clamping element ensures dynamic and static stabilization in the axial direction, utilizing a simple mechanical gripping principle that provides an excellent price-performance ratio. It is engineered for easy mounting and offers both axial and horizontal rigidity, making it ideal for tasks requiring precise positioning and continuous operation. The MK 3505 AK is suitable for all SNS ball guide rails, allowing for versatile application across various sizes of profiled rail systems including Size H, E, A, d, N, B, and S. The clamping mechanism operates by pressing the clamping profiles against the web surfaces of the ball guide rail through compressed air delivered via a dual-acting gate valve gear mechanism or through spring force provided by a preloaded return spring. This design ensures rapid decompression cycles which are critical in fast-paced environments. Constructed with a chemically nickel-plated steel housing, the unit boasts high durability and resistance to wear. It supports precise positioning due to its high dynamics and powerful drive capabilities. Users can benefit from its long service life attributed to the use of high-precision linear screw drives. The pressure is continuously adjustable up to 8 bar (the nominal size), allowing operators to tailor the clamping force to specific requirements. The CLAMPING ELEMENT MK 3505 AK operates efficiently with an air consumption rate of a normal liter per cycle at the standard air port size. It has been tested for up to 1 million clamping cycles (Bd value), demonstrating its reliability for extensive use. The permissible ambient temperature range extends from -20°C to +80°C, ensuring functionality across various working conditions. Additionally, it features a weight specification that aligns with its role as an accessory for profiled rail systems within industrial applications where pneumatic clamping and braking units are essential.
