Imao-Fixtureworks’ lineup of One Touch Fasteners are designed to reduce setup times in quick change applications. Fastener-receptacle pairs replace nut-and-bolt assemblies so that operators can lock and unlock plates, panels, covers, machine components and more without the use of tools.
According to Imao, the One Touch Fastener products are ideal for applications where there is frequent disassembly or changeover, including packaging, food production, automation, manufacturing, assembly and other industrial applications.
The One Touch Fastener product lineup includes quarter turn clamping fasteners, ball lock fasteners, pin holding and magnet locking types. Flex Locators, a related product line, add precision locating so that clamping and locating are accomplished in a single operation with no tools. Imao says Flex Locators are ideal for machining applications, and pneumatic versions are also available.
Specifications, CAD models, pricing and ordering are available online at FixtureWorks’ website. Customers can also request a quote or technical product assistance.
