A pipe clamp has a base with a fixed jaw and a beam extending from the base. A movable jaw member is slidably mounted on the beam. The movable jaw member includes a movable jaw disposed opposite the fixed jaw. A pivotable handle is mounted to the movable jaw member and a clamping mechanism is connected to the pivotable handle and operated by the pivotable handle to move the movable jaw relative to the fixed jaw. A latch secures the pivotable handle in any of a plurality of positions. A tripod stand may be provided for supporting the pipe clamp, the tripod having a multi-compartment storage spreader.

A multifunction clamp and jack system having a generally C-shaped main body with an elongate threaded rod with a top end configured to receive an open end wrench, a socket of a socket or ratchet wrench, a male square drive member of a ratchet wrench or a non-ratcheting breaker bar, the drive member of an electric or air impact wrench or a removable handle member, the bottom end of the threaded rod configured to receive selected workpiece engaging rotary attachments, the male square drive member of a ratchet wrench or electric or air impact wrench. The main body may be supported in an upright vertical position by front and rear base support members allowing it to be free standing. A plurality of interchangeable workpiece engaging attachments are provided for clamping, holding, or lifting variously shaped workpieces or objects.

A method for treatment using a cutting arrangement includes providing a rotor blade of a wind turbine and attaching an alignment tool to the rotor blade. The alignment tool includes at least one fixation means for fixing the alignment tool to proximate a trailing edge of the rotor blade that is a structure attachable to a first surface and a second opposing surface of the rotor blade. The alignment tool further includes at least one guiding structure operably connected to the fixation means that is configured to embrace the leading edge of the rotor blade and includes at least one groove or at least one edge that provides guidance for a cutting edge of a cutting apparatus. The method includes treating the rotor blade using the cutting apparatus, in which the cutting edge of the cutting apparatus is guided by the at least one guiding structure of the alignment tool.

A clamp includes a housing, a fixed gripper, a moveable gripper, a driven member, and an actuator. The housing includes first and second tracks. The fixed gripper is coupled to the housing. The driven member is configured to slide within the first and second tracks of the housing. The moveable gripper is operatively coupled to the driven member. The actuator is configured to move the driven member towards a first position to thereby move the moveable gripper towards the fixed gripper. The actuator is further configured to move the driven member towards a second position to thereby move the moveable gripper away from the fixed gripper.

A vise system is provided to retain a workpiece. In an embodiment, the vise system comprises one or more center vise and one or more end vises. The center vises and end vises are clamped to a table or workbench. The center vise is provided with a front jaw and a rear jaw to retain the center of the work. The end vises are provided with workpiece clamps to retain the ends of the workpiece.
