Introduction
The hydraulic cam system is the ideal component for executing linear motions at any
point in the available space.
The system is increasingly being used in
tool making, in particular, to drive drawing,
moulding, cutting and drilling operations
where conventional slides cannot be used
due to lack of space or inconvenient
position.
The working motion is generated by the
cam unit (e.g. the working cylinder), which
can be installed in any position in the
available space.
The cam unit is controlled by a driving
cylinder which, in turn, is activated by the
stroke motion of a press, for example.
The link between the two is provided by a
hydraulic hose in which the volume of oil in
the power unit is displaced to the cam unit.
Description
Power Unit
The Power Unit consists of the following components:
• Power Cylinder
• Accumulator
• Adapter plate
The Power Cylinder is filled with oil at one end, while
the machine that executes the stroke is at the opposite
end.
The accumulator is charged with nitrogen gas at one end.
In the idle state, the base of the piston rests on the
accumulator, relieving the pressure on the system.
The adapter plate connects the Power Cylinder to the
Accumulator and Force Cylinder.
In the standard version, the capacity of the accumulator
is matched to the total displacement volume of the
Power Cylinder. It is thus of the same height as the
piston rod. The integral rupture protection device opens
at 517 bar.
The Power Unit is also available with a separate Power
Cylinder and Accumulator.
Cam Units
There are 3 types of Cam Units:
• Force Cylinder 2018.30./40./50./60.
• Compact Cam 2018.11.
• Flange Cam 2018.12.
Force Cylinder 2018.30./40./50./60.
Design
The accumulator is charged with nitrogen gas at one end
(20 – 40 bar). The volume of oil displaced from the Power
Unit acts on the other end when the Power Unit is pressurised. The Force Cylinder then extends. The retraction
motion is generated by the nitrogen gas when the pressure is relieved on the stroke side of the Power Cylinder.
The displacement length of the Force Cylinder is twice
as long as the permissible nominal displacement length.
The unused displacement capacity is needed as a compartment for the pressurised nitrogen gas in order to
return the stroke.
Applications
The Force Cylinder is designed to drive an individual tool
component (e.g. a slide).
The nominal stroke of the Force Cylinder must be limited
by external stops. The Force Cylinder is not guided and
therefore cannot absorb any side loads. The tool components themselves must be guided.
Side loads acting on the Force Cylinder lead to
system failure.
When attaching accessories, be careful to ensure that
the axes are lined up correctly to avoid transverse forces
during the stroke. Coupling pins or similar accessories
must be used for the connection as there must be no
rigid connection between the piston of the Force Cylinder
and the tool components.

Compact Cam 2018.11.
Design
The Power Cylinder starts the piston rod of the Compact Cam
moving when pressurised. The slide is returned by external gas
springs. Two pillars with guideways prevent the tool holder
plate rotating. The clearance in the guides is 0.01 – 0.03 mm.
Applications
The Compact Cam is suitable for hole punching operations
involving no transverse forces. The Compact Cam is guided and has an internal stop. Punches can be mounted
directly on the tool holder plate.
Side loads on the Compact Cam will lead to
system failure.
In cutting operations with a small cutting clearance and
asymmetrical cutting forces a guide bolster should be provided, with an external guide to absorb the lateral forces. As
with the Force Cylinder, coupling pins must be used for the
connection between the slide and the external guide
(uncoupling). The Compact Cam is attached by 4 fixing screws. A feather key groove absorbs the cutting forces. It is
positioned by means of two pilot holes.
Flange Cam 2018.12.
Design
The Flange Cam construction is the same as the construc-
tion of the Compact Cam. The Power Cylinder starts the
piston rod of the Flange Cam moving when pressurised. The
slide is returned by external gas springs. Two pillars with
guideways prevent the tool holder plate rotating. The clearance in the guides is 0.01 – 0.03 mm. The tool holder plate
is supported by a roller and a support plate to absorb lateral
forces.
Applications
The Flange Cam is suitable for work operations with lateral
forces (e.g. bend up, sliding). The Compact Cam is guided
with an integrated stop. Punches can be mounted directly
on the tool holder plate.
A guide bolster with external guide should be provided for bending operations with asymmetrical
forces.
The Flange Cam is attached by 4 fixing screws. A feather
key groove absorbs the bending forces. It is positioned by
means of two pilot holes.
Alternative drive
For operating the Cam Unit electrically powered Hydraulic
pump units can be used (see page 46). The max. working
pressure must not exceed 150 bar. The max. speeds listed
on page 8 must not be exceeded.
Charging fittings
Nitrogen gas: The Accumulator and Cam Unit can be charged with the gas spring filling charge 2480.00.32.21.
Hydraulic system: The system is filled and vented using
the oil filling unit 2018.00.30.
Filling and venting of the system is described in detail in
the user manual supplied with the system.
Hydraulic connection
See also pages 48-53
User-friendly, flexible high-pressure hoses are ideal for the
hydraulic connections (see page 48).
A space-saving alternative is to use system hydraulic
pipes.
The same screwed couplings are used for both hoses and
pipes.
The hose length should not exceed 2000 mm. This is
important to ensure a constant build-up of pressure and –
even more importantly – to minimise impact during cutting
without a significant pressure build-up.
The couplings should be designed for at least 300 bar
nominal pressure and 1000 bar rupture pressure.
This is essential if the connection is to be sufficiently rigid
and for the rupture protection device to operate at 517 bar.
Quick-release couplings for hydraulic
hoses
We recommend that you use quick-release couplings to
join the hydraulic hoses.
Benefits:
• The system can be filled and vented under optimum conditions when off the tool, either at FIBRO or on site.
• If the tool has to be assembled or dismantled, the
hydraulic hose connecting the Power Unit and the Cam
Unit is disconnected using the quick-release coupling.
It is thus not necessary to dismantle the hoses, drain and
refill the oil and vent the system, which keeps costs
down.
For layout purposes, the dimensions of the commonly
used threaded couplings and hoses are shown on pages 48
to 53.
Leaks and oil level display
The experience we have gained in manufacturing gas
springs enables us to select the most suitable seals.
The result is an effective and long-lasting seal.
The connecting line can be assembled with no leaks, using
available materials and with careful installation.
If an oil leak does occur, it will be compensated short term
by the overtravel volume in the Accumulator.
The Accumulator and Power Cylinder are of the same
height, so any loss of oil from the system will be manifested by a difference in height.
Page 8
Flex Cam
Stroke rate
The stroke rate is dependent on the minimum flow
opening, the volume of oil and the working and return
pressures. The connecting openings allow a working
stroke rate of up to 0.8 m/s. Although this is limited by
the extent to which the system heats up due to the
high stroke rates. The system temperature should not
exceed 60 °C.
Safety instructions
If the layout of the system gives the Force Cylinder an
excessive displacement volume due to excess overtravel and/or seizing of the cylinder, the pressure in the
system can exceed the admissible value of 280 bar. In
critical situations, this effect will be counteracted by
the opening of a rupture valve at 517 bar.
The couplings are designed for a nominal pressure of
300 bar and 1000 bar rupture pressure.
On the gas side, the Accumulator is pressurised at 150
bar and is subject to Pressure Equipment Directive
97/23/EC.
To monitor safety during the process, we recommend
installing a control fitting as an additional check on the
gas side - see range of accessories.

Comments
The Accumulator and the Force Cylinder are pressure
vessels and as such are subject to the Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EC.
During cutting and hole punching operations the nominal force of the Compact Cam should only be utilised
up to 75% to minimise impact during cutting which is
reinforced by the Accumulator. Impact during cutting
can be reduced by polished tool edges (e.g. roof
shape) and so downtime can be reduced.

When the Force Cylinder reaches its working

The above diagram shows the oil pressure build-up
during the work cycle. Before the working motion, the
oil-system is pressureless. When the Power Cylinder is
actuated, the oil pressure rises to the preset gas pressure in the Cam Unit. As the Force Cylinder continues to
travel, the volume of gas is further compressed until the
work operation is executed. At the same time, the backpressure in the system rises due to the punching
operation, for example. Once the operation has ended,
the Power Cylinder continues as far as the end position
of the Force Cylinder. This ensures that the excess
volume of oil is fully absorbed by the Accumulator. At
the same time, the oil pressure rises to match the
charging pressure in the Accumulator.
If a malfunction occurs in the tool part during system
travel and blocks the travel of the Cam Unit, all the
displaced oil is held in the Accumulator. The oil pressure
increases until it equals that of the compressed nitrogen in the Accumulator.
The system is protected by an integral rupture protection device in the Accumulator which opens at 517 bar
to vent the nitrogen. The resulting system security
protects the tool from damage by the Flex Cam.

Possible combinations
Power Unit with Cam Unit
Cam Unit leading
If a stroke of the Cam Unit is required before the tool
actually reaches its working position, this can be
achieved by incorporating a gas spring. The press stroke actuates a gas spring which, in turn, actuates the
Power Unit, since its prestressing force is higher than
the nominal force of the Power Unit.
When the Cam Unit reaches its end position, the drive
(press) overtravel is compensated by the retracting
piston rod of the gas spring. A spring contact washer
transmits the pressure of the gas spring to the supporting tube when the Power Unit reaches its end position.

One or more Cam Units driven with delay
A time delay, and thus a variable working sequence for
the Cam Units, can be achieved by combining two
different strokes. The first Power Unit to be actuated
executes the first step. As the Cam Unit moves beyond
its end position, the excess oil is displaced into the
Accumulator (not shown in the diagram). The second
Power Unit can then enter the working sequence as
required.

Several Cam Units driven asynchronously
Several Cam Units can be driven by a common Power
Unit. The individual Cam Units should not, however, be

restoring forces.

Transmission ratios in use
Transmission or reduction ratios can be expressed in
four different ways:
a) Force
b) Speeds of the individual Cam Units
c) Press travel speed to Cam Unit travel speed
d) Stroke lengths
Transmission ratios
The nominal transmission ratio of 1:1 is normally used
throughout the system.
The ratio can vary, however, according to the combination (and number) of Power Units and Cam Units
used (see table on page 10).
Selecting the components
The component sizes are explained step by step
below with regard to the forces required, stroke length
and the number of operations.
Step 1: Size of the Cam Unit
Calculate the force required for the operation to be
carried out. The Cam Unit used should provide sufficient force to execute the operation. If the force required cannot be precisely calculated, we recommend
that you use a larger Cam Unit.
Step 3: Order number of the Cam Unit
Select the Cam Unit according to the type of
operation to be performed. See also pages 8,10-12
Example: If the force required is 22 kN, then a 40 kN Cam Unit
should be used. Cam Unit 2018..04000.
kNCam Unit size:
Step 2: Cam Unit stroke length
Determine the Cam Unit stroke required to execute the
operation in the tool. Use the Cam Unit with the shortest possible stroke, but remember that the tool must
have sufficient space for the workpiece.

Size and stroke of the Power Unit
Follow step 4a if one to three Cam Units of the same
size are connected to a given Power Unit. If different
Cam Units are connected to a Power Unit, then step
4b should be used.
Select the Power Unit from the following table. The
table should be read in the following order: Cam Unit –
force – stroke – number – Power Unit – stroke length.
We recommend that no more than three Cam Units be
connected to a single Power Unit.
Make sure that you do not exceed the maximum Cam
Unit stroke speed (0.8 m/s).

See also the following examples:
Example 1 (Fig. 1): A Power Unit 2018.20.04000.060
is provided as standard for a Compact Cam
2018.11.04000.049. The nominal stroke of the Power
Unit is 60 mm. The transmission ratio is 1:1. The stroke
of the Compact Cam is thus performed at the same
speed as the press.
Example 2 (Fig. 2): If a press stroke of just 30 mm
can be used to execute the operation, then a larger
Power Unit 2018.20.09000.035 should be used for the
Cam Unit 2018.11.04000.049. The Power Unit stroke
used is 30 mm, the transmission ratio is 2.5. If the
press speed is 0.3 m/s, then the Cam Unit stroke
speed obtained is 2.5 × 0.3 m/s = 0.75 m/s.
The stroke used by Power Unit and Cam Unit can be
perfectly matched to any special constraints associated with the tool.
For some applications, the speed of the Cam Unit
must be increased in proportion to the press speed.
If several Cam Units are connected to a
Power Unit, then the individual Cam Units
will not have the same stroke speed.

Step 4b
Size and stroke of the Power Unit
for different Cam Unit sizes
The total volume of oil in the Cam Units should be calculated using the following formula. The total volume
of oil is the sum of all the volumes for all Cam Units.
The volume is the product of the piston surfaces and
strokes used. The total volume of oil VNfor the Power
Units corresponds to the minimum volume of oil for the
Cam Units (in dm3). ANis the piston surface area in the
Cam Unit (dm2) as shown in table 2.

For example, the
2018.20.06000.060 supplies 0,251 dm3.

In the above example, we recommend a Power Unit

admissible Cam Unit stroke speeds defined in section
9 must not be exceeded. It should also be noted that
the Cam Units will have different stroke speeds if two
Cam Units are driven by a single Power Unit.
Step 5
Select appropriate hoses and screwed couplings. The
maximum admissible hose length between Power Unit
and the Cam Unit is 2000 mm. The nominal hose diameter is determined on the basis of the size of the
Power Unit. The hose size is matched to the flow of oil
(see page 48).

It is easiest to determine the correct hose

Remember to protect the hose against sharp edges

Nitrogen gas connector: caution – before
removing the connector check that the
cylinder has no gas pressure.
Stroke length: Important – the nominal
stroke length must be maintained from
the very start by means of an external
stop.
The unused residual stroke is required as
a compression chamber for the nitrogen
gas, if the gas pressure will increase and
may cause damage.
This fastening may only be subjected to
pressure (by support).

Nitrogen gas connector: caution – before
removing the connector check that the
cylinder has no gas pressure.
Stroke length: Important – the nominal
stroke length must be maintained from the
very start by means of an external stop.
The unused residual stroke is required as a
compression chamber for the nitrogen gas,
if the gas pressure will increase and may
cause damage.
This fastening may only be subjected to
pressure (by support).

Description:
The filling and control
fitting 2480.00.32.21 is used
to fill, vary the pressure setting
(e.g. when testing tools) and
measure the gas pressure.
The coupling enables the
filling hose to be connected
directly to the gas cylinder
valve or the pressure regulator.
If the fitting is used solely for
checking purposes, a simplified arrangement not connected to the gas cylinder is also
possible.
Closing the shut-off valve of
the filling hose enables the
filling to be used to measure the charging pressure in
the accumulator / Cam Unit,
without detaching the hose.
For constant gas monitoring,
we recommend connecting a
control fitting 2480.00.30. or
2480.00.31.
The fitting is equipped as
standard with two adapters
2480.00.32.10/.11 for
connecting to various sizes
of coupling. (The adapter
required for charging both
Power Unit and Cam Unit is
2480.00.32.11).

Description:
The control armature 2480.00.30.01/03
serves to control the charge presure of
up to eight connected gas springs.
Pressure checks during operation can be
effected in two ways:
a) by visual monitoring of the gauge dials.
b) automatically, by means of diaphragm
pressure switch 248.00.15 The switch
will stop the associated machine as
soon as the charge pressure drops
below the value set.
Note:
The shut-off valve may be open or closed
during operation.
The closing of the pressure gauge shut-off
valve ensures that no pressure peaks from
the gas spring act on the pressure gauge.

Typical Applications
Application: Cutting with Compact Cam
Press stroke
Cutting direction
This example shows how a compact cam (1) can be used for punching holes. The punch can be
mounted directly to the Compact
Cam, which means that no additional guides are required in the
tool. The diagram shows that the
Power Unit does not have to be
installed in the vicinity of the Cam
Unit, making it much more flexible
compared to conventional mechanical systems. We recommend fitting a stripping unit (2) to the
punch.
Working sequence
When the top part of the tool moves
down, it actuates the clamping
pad (3) that holds the workpiece in
position. The clamping pad is
centred with respect to the bottom
part of the tool by conical spacers.
Once the clamping pad reaches its
position, the Power Unit is actuated (4) and the Cam Unit executes
its operation.
Application: Metal forming
Press stroke
°
This example shows how one or
more Cam Units (1) can be used to
drive embossing punches (2)
(or tool slides) in a machine tool.
The punch (or slide) is guided in
the tool. This method of driving
tool components allows considerable flexibility in the machine tool
layout. The Cam Unit only generates the motion and force.
Only shearing and tensile forces
are permitted.
Working sequence
As the top part of the tool moves
down, it actuates the clamping
pad that holds the workpiece in
position. When the clamping pad
reaches its position, the Power
Unit is actuated (3) and the Cam
Unit executes its operation. The
embossing force can be adjusted,
if necessary, by varying the
pressure in the Accumulator.

Typical Applications
12 holes are punched at a
negative angle (1). In this tool,
the Flex Cam is equipped with
mechanically-driven filling
slides (2).
Working sequence:
The filling slide (2) is first moved
into position, controlled by the
overflow wedge (3). As the
press descends further, the four
Power Units (4) are pressurised, causing the Cam Units (5)
to punch the holes. In this
arrangement, the hole punching operation requires no
other drivers, which means
that it can easily be performed
at an angle of 90° to the workpiece.
Application: Cutting with positioning of the overflow wedge
Press stroke
Cutting
direction
Driving pad directionDriving pad direction
Cutting
direction
6 holes are punched at a
negative angle using working
cylinders that drive a shearing
punch unit (1).
Working sequence:
The diagram shows the Flex
Cam in its end position (press
at bottom dead centre). As the
working cylinder (2) starts to
move back, the punch moves
out of the punching area. The
entire shearing punch then
swivels down so that the workpiece can be removed. The
operation is reversed when the
top part of the press down
descends once more. The tool
contains two systems: one on
the left and the other on the
right. Each system consists of
a Power Unit (3) that drives
three Cam Units.

Typical Applications
Application: Punching holes with a Flex Cam
Stroke ratio 1:2.5
Transfer unit
Press stroke
This tool produces two workpieces at the same time: one on the
right and the other on the left. On
the left-hand side of the diagram,
the press is at the top dead centre
position. On the right-hand side,
the press is at the bottom dead
centre. The transport grippers can
be seen above the Cam Units.
The workpiece must be shaped
before the holes are punched in
the sides.
The machining contour requires a
relatively large distance between
the blank and the punching unit.
Working sequence:
A small Cam Unit (1) is connected
to a larger Power Unit (2) in order
to guarantee the necessary
time/traverse sequence. This
results in a stroke ratio of 1 to 2.5.
Example: If the Power Unit stroke
is 10 mm, then the Cam Unit stroke will be 25 mm.
Application: Cutting with floating suspension and conical
spacers
°
This application uses a Flex Cam
that is suspended from above (in
the top part of the tool).
Working sequence:
The Cam Unit (1) is mounted on a
floating die (2). The floating die is
spring-mounted and is centred
with respect to the bottom part of
the tool by conical spacers. As the
press moves down and the floating
die is centred, the Power Unit (3) is
activated and the holes are
punched.
Before the Flex Cam was installed,
the holes were punched vertically
using oval forming punches.
Due to the improved production
output and quality that resulted
from installing the Flex Cam, the
system paid for itself (including
installation) within just three
months.

up) lateral tabs (2).
Working sequence:
The bending punches fixed
to the Cam Units (in this case
Flange Cams) are supported
at the sides (3). These supports absorb the severe lateral forces resulting from the
bending operation.
Without this system, it would
have been necessary to produce an entire new tool with
a floating die or to introduce
a second operation.

This tool has two Force
Cylinders for driving an
800 mm wide bending
punch.
Working sequence:
As can be seen from the
diagram, the blank is bent
(1) at an angle, against the
motion of the press.
Two separate Flex Cam to
synchronise the motion of
the bending punch. Each
system consists of a Power
Unit (2) and a Force Cylinder
(3).
The bending punch (4) is
guided in the tool. As a
result, the Force Cylinders
only absorb axial forces.
Use of the Flex Cam simplified the structure of this
tool, thus reducing the
machinery costs.

FIBRO works at Weinsberg
FIBRO – The latest technology – with a tradition of service
The FIBRO of today started up in Weinsberg on a very
small scale back in 1958. Situated below the historic
Weibertreu Castle, the company made precision ground
round parts, the forerunners of today’s FIBRO Standard
Parts range for the toolmaking industry.
Progress was rapid and soon FIBRO needed new
production facilities. A new factory was built at
Hassmersheim on the River Neckar. Once again it was
a historic location, this time opposite Hornberg Castle.
Indexing tables
From 1962 onwards FIBRO at Weinsberg pioneered the
design and manufacture of indexing tables and soon
gained an enviable reputation.
FIBROTAKT: indexing tables with face gear and ultrahigh-precision indexing, combined with dependable
rigidity. Drive options: pneumatic, hydraulic, electric.
Rotation by rack and pinion or worm drive. Manual or
NC control.
FIBROPLAN: indexing tables with worm drive and NC
indexing and drive, for circular milling and divisions of
any size.
FIBROTOR: revolving tables or indexing tables with
positive-drive cam, offering very short cycle times even
when transporting heavy loads. Suitable for automation
with short cycle times. Thousands of FIBRO units are in
use world-wide as integral key components in highoutput machinery.
