The wedge clamp consists of a hydraulic block cylinder and a piston guided in a housing. The clamping bolt is provided with 20° bevel to clamp on the tapered clamping surface of the mould/die. Based on the internal design of the wedge clamp and the 20° bevel of the clamping bolt, the system is providing internal friction. This wedge clamp comes customized.
