The Bosch Rexroth CLAMPING ELEMENT MKS 5505 AR (R181054060) is a high-precision pneumatic clamping unit designed for roller rail systems. It provides dynamic and static stabilization in the axial direction and ensures precise positioning with its chemically nickel-plated steel housing, which offers high axial and horizontal rigidity. The clamping element can be used on all SNS roller guide rails, with easy mounting capabilities that allow for quick installation. This unit operates with a nominal air pressure of 6 bar to clamp with spring force, employing a dual-action gate valve gear mechanism with two spring assemblies to maintain clamping even in the event of a pressure drop. With an integrated quick-exhaust valve, the MKS 5505 AR boasts short reaction times for efficient operation. When decompression occurs using air pressure between 5 and 8 bar, the clamping profiles are held apart, allowing free movement. The MKS 5505 AR is compatible with various sizes of profiled rail systems including sizes A, B, E, H, d, D, N and S thread diameter systems. It has a maximum operating pressure of 8 bar and can sustain up to 1 million clamping cycles. The unit's holding force is enhanced by the airplus port feature which allows increased holding force by additional air admission at an airplus port with 6 bar pressure. With its robust design and reliable performance in securing components during machining or assembly processes, this pneumatic clamping element is an essential accessory for profiled rail systems requiring precise control and longevity. The functional principle ensures that it clamps effectively using spring energy in the event of a pressure drop while allowing decompression with air pressure for free movement when needed.
