SAATI Top 12 Plus Clamps
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).
Raise & Lower Function
In addition, its unmatched, patented “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.
The long 120mm (4.7”) stroke per clamp allows for almost 250mm (9.8”) of total stretch in each direction. A special pneumatic device lifts the mesh above the frame for stretching, while the clamps hold (and pre-bow) the frame. Once the desired tension is achieved, the mesh is lowered for adhesion to the frame. The constant tension stabilizes mesh quicker than any other tensioning system.
SAATI clamps feature a uniquely designed modular plug-in system for easy set-up in minutes.
