ClampMan

The ClampMan is a perfect solution for fixing PCBs of various shapes and formats in a large variety of different ways. Due to its flexible design it is possible to perfectly position each PCB for tasks such as measuring, soldering or thermal imaging.

ClampMan was especially designed to clamp energized PCBs while enabling safe measurements from both sides. This is very helpful for power electronic measurements like measuring the power factor or efficiency of a power supply.

The provided clamping accessories enable fixing of printed circuit boards in many different positions with multiple degrees of freedom. This ensures an unsurpassed level of versatility for soldering, repair or assembly of printed circuit boards.

ClampMan integrates H&G's precise hydraulic joint stands which have been highly valued in processing and medical engineering industries for decades.

These joint stands allow exactly positioning of measurement probes or other equipment like thermal imaging cameras.

In its basic version ClampMan comes with one hydraulic probe holder. Additional hydraulic joint stands are available as accessories. In total up to ten joint stands with probe holders can be mounted.

The ClampMan in the field

ClampMan Probe is our solution for an individual probing, if you aren't able to clamp the PCB on the ClampMan Classic or on the ClampMan Light.

The base plate is able to pick up a maximum number of four 400mm joint stands. It also enables probing in many different positions.

ClampMan Light is our entry level model. It's mainly designed to clamp smaller PCBs or hold parts like relays, especially for soldering or repair. It can also be used for tasks such as thermal imaging or with the optional available top jaws for isolated measurements (ClampMan Light ISO Edition).

The base plate is able to pick up a maximum number of four 400mm joint stands. It also enables fixing in many different positions with the same degrees of freedom as the ClampMan Classic does. So it also ensures nearly the same level of versatility for soldering, repair or assembly of printed circuit boards.

The ClampMan Light ISO is nearly a twin to the ClampMan Light. In addition it owns two isolated chucks to clamp powered PCB's.

It's mainly designed to clamp smaller PCBs for isolated measuring and/or repair. It can also be used for tasks such as thermal imaging.

A good combination is to use it with a probeholder or a thermal cam mounted on a second joint stand.

The base plate is able to pick up a maximum number of four 300/400mm joint stands. It also enables fixing in many different positions with the same degrees of freedom as the ClampMan Classic does. So it also ensures nearly the same level of versatility for soldering, repair or assembly of printed circuit boards.

The ClampMan Midi is our medium model.

It's mainly designed to carry medium size PCB's especially for isolated measuring. It can also be used for tasks such as thermal imaging.

In opposite to the ClampMan Light and the ClampMan Probe the PCB-clamp is carried by a 300mm and not a 400mm joint stand.

The base plate is able to pick up a maximum number of four 400mm joint stands. It also enables fixing in many different positions with the same degrees of freedom as the ClampMan Classic does. So it also ensures nearly the same level of versatility for soldering, repair or assembly of printed circuit boards.

The "ClampMan Midi Plus" is our advanced medium model.

It's mainly designed to carry medium size PCB's especially for isolated measuring. It can also be used for tasks such as thermal imaging.

In opposite to the ClampMan Light and the ClampMan Probe the PCB-clamp is carried by a 300mm and not a 400mm joint stand, but it owns an additional 400m joint stand plus a probeholder

The base plate is able to pick up a maximum number of four 300/400mm joint stands. It also enables fixing in many different positions with the same degrees of freedom as the ClampMan Classic does. So it also ensures nearly the same level of versatility for soldering, repair or assembly of printed circuit boards.

This joint stand has an action radius of "about" 300mm

This joint stand has an action radius of "about" 400mm

This joint stand has an action radius of "about" 300mm and is also intensified. This is the joint stand from the "ClampMan Classic", connected to the base plate with two identical 8mm threads at both ends. There is no Quick Change adapter!
