Jaw
l Dual double acting opposed pistons, connected to both a jaw and a synchronizing
bar by a drive pin, actuate in opposite directions.
l The synchronizing bars are connected to the equalizer which synchronizes
the motion.
l The purge/scavenge port can be used to expel or retain contaminates using
pressure or vacuum respectively.
l Suitable for internal or external gripping.
l The synchronizing elements can be removed for non-synchronous operation.
