O-KS
The new optimised compact cam.
Compact, reliable, powerful.
Discover our new premium cam now also in size 60.
Forming, bending, punching, cutting – size and force are crucial factors in the manufacture of sheet metal parts. Lacher Camtec has therefore further developed its proven compact cams. The result is the O-KS (optimized compact cam unit). Despite its low complexity, it impresses with high retraction forces, compact design and optimised handling in the tool.
Easy handling, flexible accessibility:
The cam can be removed from the rear and side, ensuring efficient use in the tool and easy maintenance.
Extremely strong, guaranteed durability:
The O-KS meets the requirements of modern automotive engineering – not only in terms of product quality and precision, but also in terms of durability. This is ensured by the unique combination of advantages offered by the new premium cam. As usual, voestalpine Camtec guarantees a service life of 1 million strokes for its premium products.
The best solution for machining high-strength steels:
Optimised design and the use of appropriate gas pressure springs enable high retraction forces. This, combined with its high load capacity, makes it the ideal solution for machining high-strength steels.
Well thought-out, low complexity:
Despite its compactness, the O-KS consists of only a few individual parts. Its width is identical to the working surface, and it is on average 9% shorter than other solutions (depending on the angle).
