TOX Tongs Information

Our modular concept for handheld-, machine- and robotic tongs provides you with ample freedom to match these TOX tongs to your parts and handling equipment. Custom models are available. We provide solutions to your application and quality assurance requirements with a clearly defined interface.

 

Tong drives: specially designed hydraulic cylinders with absolute air/oil separation for hydraulic fast/power strokes and pneumatic return stroke. The pressure for these cylinders is generated by a TOX pneumohydraulic intensifier type ES. Pressure can also be supplied by a conventional hydraulic power unit. Or, with our pneumatic operated TOX Powerpackage cylinder. more 

 

An alternative to the pneumohydraulic drives are our electromechanical servo spindles TOX ElectricDrive coupled with our user-friendly TOXsoftWare. more 

 

A TOX stripper is always integrated.

The punch and the die position can be interchanged in special tongs executions, e.g., if difficult accessibility to the joint location makes this necessary.


TOX supplies specially developed Process Monitoring Systems, which help you to check and document your quality control requirements. more


Procedure for selecting TOX tongs for a clinching application:
1.
Send us samples of your material and we will prepare a TOX test report for you. This report contains all the necessary data and guarantees for the tested TOX joint.
2.
Determine pressing and stripping forces according to test report.
3. Check parts and fixtures for proper tongs clearance.
4. Select type of drive.
5. Determine stroke.
6. Decide whether a process monitoring system is required.
7. Discuss your tongs pre-selection with TOX.

Special considerations for punching, marking or similar tasks need to be taken into account.
