General assembly notes
If several clamping pillars with VERO-S NSE plus clamping systems
are mounted linked together, make sure that the interface
position deviation does not exceed ± 0.015 mm.
Due to redundancy between several quick-change pallet systems
VERO-S NSE plus, the clamping pins or the clamping pin extensions
with positioning accuracy in one direction (SPB 40 / SPB-VLK50)
must be used for clamping systems that are more than 160 mm
apart or that do not show a positioning tolerance of ± 0.01 mm.
For the clamping areas that are not intended for alignment of the
device, the workpiece or the pallet, clamping pins or clamping pin
extensions with centering clearance (SPC 40 / SPC-VLK50) or alternatively the compensation module WDA 99-70-36 can be used

NOTE
When connecting the WDB 99-60 base module or the WDG 99-60
basic module or the WDR 99-60 raster module for supplying compressed air to the quick-change pallet system, bear in mind that it
is only possible to completely ventilate the piston chamber via the
air connections during the locking process. The relevant valves or
shut-off valves should therefore be equipped with load relief. This
also applies to the turbo connection. If the turbo connection is not
used, it must be possible to ventilate the relevant side of the piston. In this case, the pressure ventilation would have to take place
via an open air connection on the WDB 99-60 or WDG 99-60 base
module. The connection may not be closed by a locking screw for
this, as otherwise an air cushion in the quick-change pallet system
would form; this would mean the quick-change pallet system
would no longer be able to be opened.

WDB 99-60
The WDB 99-60 base module is secured on the machine table by
two or four M12 screws and nuts for T-slots suitable for the machine table. It can be mounted on thread bore hole grid plates
with tapped holes M16 with fit seatings Ø24 H6/H7 and grid spacings of 50 mm. To do so, the basis module is screwed on at a diagonal distance of 141.42 mm oriented around the raster plate.
Four M12 screws and 2 M16 screws with 2 washers are included in
the scope of delivery. The nuts for T-slots are not included in the
scope of delivery of the clamping system.
For machine tables with T-slots, various center hole distances are
available. Alternatively, the clamping system can be secured using
two or four BRR 50 clamping pin blanks (see chapter "Accessories"
( 1.3.1, Page 8)
). There are slots on the bottom of the clamping
system to mount loose T-nuts in order to align the clamping stations to the machine table slots.
The clamping system can be positioned on machine tables with
hole pattern bore holes or machine tables with T-slots for screw
connection via the central bore hole at the base.

Assembly
The WDB 99-60 base module allows further change components of
the modular system to be adapted to the workpiece direct clamping. The change interface of the clamping system has a central
connection screw for clamping an adaptable stacking module or a
workpiece direct clamping or compensation module.
The WDB 99-60 base module has three air supply connections
G 1/8". The air supply is intended to supply a VERO-S workpiece
direct clamping module or a WDB compensation module with

5.3.2
The WDB 99-60 base module has a change interface with VERO-S
SPA 40 clamping pins. This makes it compatible with SCHUNK
quick-change pallet modules VERO-S NSE plus 99 or VERO-S NSE
plus 138. It therefore forms the base baseline study for a further
change module from the WDB 99 module system.
The WDG 99-60 doesn't contain any precise torque pins for radial
positioning on the VERO-S NSE plus quick-change pallet module.
A workpiece design should therefore be fixed on several clamping
pillars in order to withstand the torque caused by the machining
forces.
The integrated change interface of the clamping system has a
central connection screw for clamping an adaptable WDS 99 stacking module or a WDN 99-70 workpiece direct clamping or a WDA
99-79 D32 or WDA 99-70 D36 compensation module.
The WDG 99-60 basic module has three air supply connections
G 1/8". The air supply is intended to supply a VERO-S workpiece
direct clamping module or a WDB compensation module with
pneumatic actuation. The unlocking connection and the turbo
connection can be found on the front side. The turbo connection
serves to amplify the pull-in force on the quick-change pallet
system. On the back there is an air connection for the air control
to the WDN 99-70 or WDN-M 99-70.

WDR 99-60
The raster module WDB 99-60 has a change interface with central
fastening screw and centering sleeve HUE 24/25. This makes it
compatible with conventional thread bore hole plates with centering bores Ø 24 H6/H7 mm and tapped hole M16 in bore hole grid
spacing 50 mm x 50 mm.
The technical equipment features and the functions are identical to
the basic module WDG 99-60 (( 5.3.2, Page 28)
). The mounting
scheme on grid plates corresponds to the central screw connection
from the illustration (assembly of the WDB99-60 on grid plates).

WDS 99
The WDS 99 stacking modules are intended for adjusting the
height of the clamping pillars. The system components have two
change interfaces with which the units can be joined together.
29
Assembly
The fastening to the already mounted clamping system is done by
means of an integrated shaft connection in the clamping unit. The
connection is loosened or tightened using the tapered screws with
around 5 full revolutions each.
Mounting and connection WDG 99-30
The tapered screw is tightened by the precise tightening torque
specification clockwise on the mounted module. The screw reaches into the shaft and moves it to the opposite support structure.
This centers the stacking module in the taper interface and at the
same time clamps and positions it against the flat surface of the
pre-assembled module. The shaft connection allows a torque load
on the clamping pillars, which for instance is exercised through
machining forces. For orientation of the installation position, a
cylindrical pin grips into the interface to be inserted.
The stacking module has integrated routing air for the functions:
unlocking, turbo function and workpiece contact monitoring.
These functions are required for an adapted WDN 99-70 direct
clamping module or a WDA 99-70 compensation module.
The query functionality is only intended for the WDN 99-70 direct
clamping module and with the manual direct clamping module
WDN-M 99-70.

positioned as the top clamping system on the WDB 99 clamping
pillars via the change interface.
The clamping system has a VERO-S NSE plus 99 quick-change pallet
module, which is supplied with compressed air via the integrated
air routing of the change components assembled on top of each
other. The quick-change pallet module is a system secured by a
spring. The unlocking of the VERO-S change interface takes place
via the air routing of a WDB 99-60, WDG 99-60 or WDR 99-60 base
module, on which the clamping pillar was assembled. An extra
connected compressed air impulse via the turbo connection serves
to amplify the pull-in force on the quick-change pallet system.

which the flat work surface of the workpiece or the clamping pallet
can be monitored via a differential pressure switch (see chapter
"Function of the workpiece system function" ( 6.3, Page 47)
).
For orientation of the installation position, a cylindrical pin grips
into the interface to be inserted.
WDN-M 99-70
The manual WDN-M 99-70 workpiece direct clamping module
forms the change interface to the workpiece or the clamping pallet. It can be positioned as the top clamping system on the WDB 99
clamping pillars via the change interface.
The drive for the clamping function of the clamping system is
manual as standard using a rotary movement on the actuator
screw which is on the side of the housing. The clamping system
can be operated by means of a hexagonal screwdriver (angled pin
wrench). The clamping force is initiated after precise torque specification using a torque wrench. No air supply is required for the
operation of the clamping system.
The clamping system also has a workpiece system function, with
which the flat work surface of the workpiece or the clamping pallet

WDA 99-79 D32
The WDA 99-79 D32 compensation module is intended for individual height adjustment to the workpiece in connection with the WDASPA 32 direct clamping pin workpiece. It forms the flexible change
interface to the workpiece or the clamping pallet. A cylindrical
clamping pin can be fixed with this up to a certain extension limit.
This compensation module fulfills the function of a centering pin
similar to a VERO-S SPA 40RF clamping pin. This compensation
module is preferably only to be used once in the entire clamping
structure, as otherwise it may cause redundancies in the clamping
structure. One of the remaining clamping pillars should be equipped
with clamping systems for a VERO-S SPB 40RF clamping pin with
compensation function in longitudinal direction (sword pin). All
other clamping pillars may be loaded with SPC 40RF clamping bolts.
The compensation module can be positioned as the top clamping
system on the WDB 99 clamping pillars via the change interface.
The clamping system has a hydraulic clamping unit and is clamped
or loosened using a hexagonal socket screwdriver. The change
interface is suitable for the WDS 99 stacking modules.
An upcoming compressed air supply from the stacking modules is

WDA 99-70-D36
The WDA 99-70 D36 compensation module in connection with the

change interface to the workpiece or the clamping pallet. A cylindrical clamping pin can be fixed with this up to a certain extension
limit.
This compensation module satisfies the holding function for flexible workpiece support. To position in the fixing level, gauge tolerances for the reference clamping areas can be compensated. Angle
tolerances to the workpiece can be compensated at an angle to
the clamping slide axis. This compensation module can be used
several times in the entire clamping structure, unlike the WDA 9979 D32 compensation module. Several clamping pillars can be
loaded with this compensation module. At least two clamping pillars in the system structure must be fitted with a clamping pin with
centering function such as VERO-S SPA 40RF (centering pin) and a
VERO-S SPB 40RF clamping pin with sword function.

Clamping pins SPA 40, SPB 40, SPC 40, SPG 40
The VERO-S clamping pins SPA 40, SPB 40, SPC 40 and SPG 40 are
compatible with the WDN 99-70 direct clamping module with
pneumatic quick-changing pallet system and WDN-M 99-70 with
manual quick-changing clamping module.
These clamping pins are suitable for use on clamping structures
with precisely aligned height supports on the workpiece or the
clamping pallet.
If variable height distances on the workpiece or the clamping
pallet are to be compensated, the WDA 99-79 D32 compensation
module with hydraulic clamping unit or the WDA 99-70 D36 with
pneumatic clamping unit and the correspondingly designed clamping pins for compensation modules are used (see chapter "Work-
piece direct clamping pins for compensation modules" ( 5.5
Page 38)).
,
The holding force of the quick-change pallet system is limited
essentially by the tightness of the screw connection which
connects the clamping pin to the pallet or the device.
• This is why only screws of strength class 12.9 may be used.
• Only original SCHUNK clamping pins may be used.
• If the clamping pins are to be used in customer-owned
devices, the customer must provide sufficiently dimensioned
The clamping pins can be attached in two different ways to the
workpiece or pallet; the mounting variants are numbered in order
of preference.
These clamping pins are preferably to be used with precisely
height-coordinated workpiece gradings. These do not allow any
height tolerances to be compensated to the workpiece. If height
tolerances to the workpiece are to be covered, a compensation

Functional description
The clamping systems of the WDB 99 modular system can be combined with individual clamping pillars using change interfaces similar
to a quick-change pallet system and joined using the manual connecting devices of the system components. This enables a clamping
device setup for 5-sided machining of a workpiece to be joined on
several clamping pillars.
The clamping systems adapted on the clamping pillars can be actuated pneumatically, manually or manually hydraulically as desired.
With the WDS 99 stacking modules, five different heights are
available. Appropriate combinations of systems enable clamping
pillars to be mounted in increments of 10 mm. The WDA 99-79
hydraulic compensation element or the WDA 99-70 pneumatic
clamping system in connection with the respectively suitable
workpiece direct clamping pins are intended for fine height
adjustments to the workpiece interface.
Function of the connecting unit in the change components
The clamping systems of the WDB 99 modular system have a special
connecting mechanism which contains a quick-change function.
The connection is transferred to a connection shaft by a tapered
screw. At the same time, a pre-tension force is applied at the
clamping point on the flat surfaces positioned against one another.
A hexagonal socket screw drive wrench size 6 mm is required to
clamp or loosen the connecting unit.
For the connecting points, the corresponding screw tightening
torques for the clamping screws of the change interface must be
adhered to (see chapter "Screw tightening torques" ( 4
ge 22)).
The achievable pull-in force on the change interface varies,
depending on the screw tightening torque. The maximum torque
for the clamping screw may not be exceeded; for this reason, a
torque wrench with socket must be used.
To quickly fit the clamping structure, the WDB 99-60 base module
and the WDG 99-60 basic module include a hexagonal socket
screwdriver.

Functions of the air routings in the change components
The modular system for workpiece direct clamping is aligned for
the VERO-S NSE plus 99 pneumatic quick-change pallet system. For
air supply to the quick-change pallet module, the clamping systems have integrated air routings, which are controlled via a base
module or a basic module (see chapter "Pneumatic switching dia-
gram" ( 5.8, Page 42)
).
Functional description
|en
In the clamping devices, sealing elements are inserted at the bot-
6.3
tom, which ensure a hose-free connection to the air supply.
For clamping devices without pneumatic actuation, such as a WDA
99-79 D32 compensation module, sealing elements are likewise
used; these act as sealing plugs.
When changing a change component, it must be ensured that the
sealing elements are not damaged and intact. This is the only way
to ensure that an adapted pneumatic clamping system can be unlocked and monitored properly.
Air routing in the change components
Function of the workpiece system control
• Max. pressure 2 bar
• Limit volumetric flow to 15 l/min
In order to guarantee reliable evaluation, the pressure and air
volume must be held constant. Pressure fluctuations can affect the
settings of the pressure switch and lead to incorrect measurement
results.
The length and cross-section of the line can affect the switching
time of the control components. It may be necessary to readjust
the control components.
Check the control components of the monitoring functions at
regular intervals. The sealing elements installed in the base of the
change elements must be checked regularly for damage.
If errors occur in the monitoring control system, you must detect
the cause of the error.

Maintenance and care
The clamping systems for the VERO-S WDB 99 direct workpiece
clamping and the used VERO-S NSE plus quick-change pallet
systems, WDA 99-70 are designed for low-maintenance operation,
meaning it is only necessary to open and disassemble the clamping
systems and clamping modules under exceptional circumstances.
If the clamping module has to be disassembled, send the
module to SCHUNK for repair.
The covers of the clamping modules are spring preloaded and
must only be removed by trained specialist personnel.
The cover of the NSE plus 99 quick-change pallet module and
the WDA 99-70 compensation module may also only be
assembled and disassembled in compliance with the
opening the housing cover.
To ensure the quick-change pallet system operates perfectly, the
following instructions are to be observed:
Pressure medium: compressed air, compressed air quality

Only store the hydraulic expansion toolholder when it is not
clamped and make sure to protect it from corrosion.
• To secure the clamping forces with every clamping pin change,
clean the clamping bore and the screw-shaped groove with a
cleaning agent containing solvents.
• For storage, lightly oil the entire surface of the hydraulic
expansion toolholder.
It may be necessary for it to be cleaned according to the ambient conditions, especially in the case of high clamping frequencies, high operating temperatures, or abrasive dirt or metal
clips and metal particles.
Repair work is only allowed to be carried out at a SCHUNK site.
Ambient conditions and operating conditions
• Make sure that the contact surfaces of the interface are always
clean.
• Always ensure that no chips of any kind enter the interface of
the change components.
• Only use high-quality cooling emulsions with anti-corrosive
additives during processing.
• Check the pneumatic clamping systems and the workpiece
direct clamping modules at regular intervals (at least every
2 weeks or after 200 clampings).
• Carry out regular visual/functional checks.
In the case of visible damage or signs of malfunctions on the
clamping systems or the quick-change pallet system installed with
the WDN 99-70 workpiece direct clamping module, shut down the
clamping systems immediately. The system may only be commissioned again once the faults have been corrected. For example, by
replacing the damaged module.
