Flexline R Green Edition: Robust quick clamping system for press dies available as 24 volt version
Laubach, the 15. July 2025. ROEMHELD presents a new version of its robust Flexline-R quick clamping system for press dies, which has been specially developed for operation with 24 volt DC voltage. The so-called Green Edition is characterized by simple planning and installation, worldwide usability and operation with safe extra-low voltage while maintaining the same performance.
Can be used on almost any press
At the heart of the innovation is the 24 volt DC motor, which is used instead of a 120 or 400 volt AC motor in the original version. The safe extra-low voltage considerably simplifies project planning and makes the element compatible with almost any press worldwide. This eliminates the need for additional voltage conversion or adaptation to country-specific power grids.
The new design is aimed both at manufacturers who are equipping new press systems and at users who want to retrofit existing systems.
For automated press lines
Flexline R Green Edition is technically based on the recently introduced Flexline-R compact system with stainless steel pull-push chain for automatic clamping of dies of different sizes on the press ram.
It clamps dies using hollow piston cylinders and was specifically designed for higher loads and demanding operating conditions. This is why its pull-push chain is made of welded stainless steel, and it also has reinforced stops and protective plates.
The clamping forces of up to 104 kilonewtons and the high adjustment speed predestine the new system for die clamping in automated press lines, where operational reliability, process speed and simple maintenance are required.
Benefits as with Flexline-R
In practical use, the Green Edition works in exactly the same way as the standard version. A compact electric motor automatically moves the optional 660 mm or 1,100 mm long push chain with the attached hollow piston cylinder between the park position and the clamping edge of the die. All hydraulic and electrical cables are routed via the integrated energy chain. Various position data can be monitored via an integrated sensor system. Like the original version, the new product is characterized by a compact design, a maintenance-friendly construction and a low weight.
