CARR LANE MFG. COCarr Lane was founded by Earl Walker in 1952 in St. Louis, Missouri, to make standardized tooling components for jigs and fixtures. The company has grown through constant innovation to become the foremost supplier to the American machine tool industry. Carr Lanes 688-page catalog is recognized as the manufacturing engineers "bible, " with illustrated sections on jig and fixture components, modular fixturing, clamps, drill jig bushings and hundreds of other standard and customizable manufacturing products.Drawing upon a centuries-old tradition of fine craftsmanship in metalworking, the R mheld family began its operations in Laubach, Germany in 1870. Development of hydraulic workholding components began in the early 1960s and the R mheld name soon grew to dominate the European market. In May 1991 HILMA joined the R mheld GmbH Group with a focus on workholding systems, as well as die, mold and tool clamping systems for presses, die casting, injection molding and compression molding machines. SWIFTSURE PRODUCTSThe SWIFTSURE line introduces a full selection of state-of-the-art, air and hydraulically powered components and accessories. More than 80 different types of power workholding devices are available, allowing you to speed up and streamline many manual workholding operations. Compact, yet able to operate comfortably at 7, 500 psi, SWIFTSURE products include flexible clamping systems, swing clamps, push clamps and cylinders, work supports, coupling systems, collet vises and many other workholding items.SWIFTSURE also represents HILMA precision machine vises. Fully hydraulic and hydra-mechanical versions of these vises provide the strong, consistent clamping force required for high-speed machining, and significantly reduce operator fatigue. These robust and durable machine vises offer excellent vibration damping and dimensional stability, as well as leakfree operation with internal hydraulics that deliver clamping forces up to 22, 500 lbs. Versatile, compact HILMA flexible fixturing systems provide fast action when used individually or in more complex fixtures. These space-saving clamps are available in multiple configurations and sizes suitable for short or long production runs. HILMA PRODUCTSHILMA division of Carr Lane Roemheld offers a complete range of quick tool change products with a high degree of clamping force control for die, mold and forging applications. HILMA systems are universally adaptable and permit safe, rapid changeover to new production lots.Pressworking shops experience less downtime, even with frequent die changes, with HILMA automatic die clamping systems. The full die change line includes a variety of clamps, cylinders and associated components. Clamping systems for quick mold change enable just-in-time production with greatly reduced mold change times and reduced labor costs. Our magnetic and hydraulic clamping systems are designed specifically for plastic and rubber injection and compression mold machines. HILMA hydraulic wedge clamping systems suit the adverse conditions of forging, while providing high clamping forces and minimizing press downtime. STARK PRODUCTSCarr Lane Roemheld now provides the STA
