Standard features for Single, Dual, Quad and 6 Flow Path models.
Rotating unions are a rotary connection, feeding pressure to fixtures while allowing full 360° rotation of the fixture with or without pressure. A machine or independent indexer may do this indexing. Rotating unions allow “live” hydraulic power to be supplied to fixtures during the machining cycle.
The leak free design eliminates the need for a drain or vent line required by standard industrial models. This feature also reduces the demand for pressure present in industrial models that can cause pump cycling.
All units include internal bearings to increase life under loaded applications. Quad path models are often installed in machine doors to feed two in de pen dent dual path models on fixtures, making VektorFlo® the choice for all of your machine clamping needs. Integral mounting holes and multiple plumbing options make VektorFlo® designs easier to use than specialized larger in dus tri al model.
Solidly bolt into place either the shaft or the housing component of the rotary union; not both. Mount the opposing component using a cableway or similar anti-rotation device to allow for some movement in the event of misalignment.
