The SAATI Top 12 Plus Clamp provides optimum pneumatic screen tensioning. This highly advanced, yet easy to use system achieves the highest recommended tensions more uniformly, without over-tensioning the corners. It provides the greatest stability of any system available. Among the most notable features of this premier stretching system is its independent or simultaneous warp/weft tensioning capability (when used with optional control panel). The long 4.75” stroke per clamp allows for almost 10” of total stretch in each direction.
In addition, its unmatched, patent-pending “raise/lower” design pre-stresses the frame while simultaneously eliminating mesh contact with the frame surface during stretching. This specialized “non-contact” stretching eliminates any hazardous friction, uneven tensioning or resultant tears caused by distorting the mesh when it comes in contact with rough or uneven frame surfaces. A special pneumatic device lifts the mesh above the frame for stretching, while the clamps hold (and pre-stress) the frame. Once the desired tension is achieved, the mesh is lowered for adhesion to the frame.
SAATI clamps feature a uniquely-designed modular plug-in system for easy set-up in minutes.
