Clamping systems. The machine is clamped either by a hydraulically operated toggle system or by a straight hydraulic ram. In both instances a hydraulic cylinder provides the force to stretch the tie bars, which causes the clamping action. In a straight hydraulic system, a large-diameter hydraulic cylinder is attached directly to the movable platen. 1, record 1, English, - toggle%20system
