The TOX Powerpackage in detail

The TOX Powerpackage – a completely integrated power drive

The different configurations and the specially developed accessories make it universally adaptable. In special applications, such as spotwelding, the TOX Powerpackage is optimized according to your requirement.

Developed to the smallest detail: More than 100.000 successful worldwide applications have proven it.

1. The pilot mounting gives precise location, and the standard bolt pattern allows for quick and easy mounting

2. The working rod is cushioned in both end positions with long-life cushions; this is the key to smooth operation, even at high frequencies

3. The seals have been optimized thru extensive endurance testing

4. Special seals allow for operation with non-lubricated compressed air

5. The TOX Powerpackage delivers high forces in a compact design. The double supported working rod has enormous significance for tolerating the most rugged working environments

6. The absolute air/oil separation is the reason for low maintenance, high stroke frequencies and trouble-free operation. An annular groove, between the seals separating the air and oil sections and vented to the atmosphere, prevents the air from mixing with the oil

7. Each TOX Powerpackage features a standard high pressure measuring connector. The following functions can be performed:

- constant press force independent of the supply air pressure by activating the return stroke when apreset oil pressure has been reached
- monitoring supply pressure to aid in quality control
- activation of subsequent operations
- pressure gauge, etc.

8. Oil level indicator. Accessories include pneumatic and electric monitoring, also available with remote controls

9. Oil refill connection

10. Constant pressure, closed system, oil reservoir for extended refill intervals

11. The patented anti-overfill system eliminates problems when refilling the cylinder with oil. The snap ring mounted inside the intensifier barrel limits the travel of the feed piston. If the cylinder is overfilled, the excess oil is removed by the integrated pressure relief valve

12. The intensifier spring serves a dual function, the return of the intensifier piston and provide a constant pressure on the oil reservoir without any pneumatic hookup. This results in a troublefree operation of the TOX Powerpackage in any mounting orientation, e.g. in robotic applications. In addition, the patented spring provides savings in air consumption of the TOX Powerpackage. The return stroke does not require a high consumption pneumatic supply.

13. The intensifier piston generates the high force during the power stroke. Different power stroke requirements can be easily achieved by changing the dimensions of the plunger on the intensifier piston

14. The change-over from approach stroke to powerstroke takes place automatically as soon as the working rod meets resistance. The change-over time can be adjusted with the flow control valve “X”. These controls are either mounted to the TOX Powerpackage or have been integrated into the flange for an even more compact design.

15. The complete controls for changeover are mounted or integrated on the TOX Powerpackage. What this means to you: the TOX Powerpackage is controlled like any double acting pneumatic cylinder with a 4/2- or a 5/2-way directional valve.

16. From cylinder size S 4 upwards all TOX Powerpackages are equipped with the integrated, patented, hydraulic end position cushion. Thus an optimal dampening in the retracted position is guaranteed – especially in case of applications with high tool weight.
