NewsThu Nov 10 09:17:07 PST 2016 - Cascade Announces the New J-Series White Goods (WG) Clamp Models

Cascade is pleased to announce the external sales release of the J-Series White Goods (WG) Clamp Models. In the Americas, these WG models are being introduced with the benefits of the previously announced J-Series Carton Clamps, including enhanced durability, improved reliability, and industry leading visibility for better ease of use. The energy efficient hydraulic system also minimizes energy consumption and maximizes performance.

Two J-Series WG model arm configurations are being offered for your different handling needs - the WGF model and the WGS model. Both WG models decrease product damage as the 3-finger arm design provides optimal clamp distribution across taller loads. The WGF model features the industry exclusive Adjusta-Block system, which allows for more precise handling as it offers adjustment points to distribute clamp force more evenly along the pad surface. The WGS model features single articulating arms that can be shim-adjusted for better clamp force distribution.

WG models have been specifically designed for use with white goods and appliances, and in other traditional carton clamp applications, such as wine and spirits.

To determine your best application for each model, please review the WG model comparison matrix.
