Intermediate-positions - which torque of modules vs. corresponding swivel-units?
The get a "third" position, pneumatic swivel units can be added with our module intermediate-position.
It is mounted directly to the swivel unit and moves two piston-rods inside the working area of the gear racks - by external pressurized air.
By pneumatic force, the piston-gears of the swivel units are pushed to the intermediate position.
Interested in more technical background? Please see this link.
The mid-position is adjustable (90° +/- 20°, in case of ZWP-9-SES 90° +/- 10°).
Keep in mind: as pushed via the piston-gears, the repeat accurracy also directly depends on the gear (0,05°).
Mid-positions are available corresponding to some of our swivel units. Please also find a link to a short YouTube-Video (in German).
According product dimensions, there is a "given maximium" of piston-diameter in the intermediate-position-module.
Depending on their size (module / variant) it is partially possible to work vs. the pressurized swivel unit. Please see table below.
| swivel unit | torque swivel unit | torque ZWP | torque ZWP |
| module/size | @6bar effevtive | against swivel unit @6bar effective | swivel unit not pressurized |
| SE-4 | 0,94 Nm | impossible | 0,9 Nm |
| SES-4 | 1,6 Nm | 1 Nm | 3 Nm |
| SE-6 | 3,5 Nm | impossible | 3,5 Nm |
| SES-6 | 6,5 Nm | 1,9 Nm | 10,1 Nm |
| SE-9 | 12 Nm | 5 Nm | 20,2 Nm |
| SES-9 | 24 Nm | 8 Nm | 40 Nm |
