Abstract: A device creates a clamping between clamping surfaces (24, 26) facing each other and forming a frictional engagement between each other, on a stationary body (2) and a body (4) that can be moved relative the stationary body (2), in particular in the form of a rotary indexing table. A power drive (40) that can be actuated by a fluid pressure is provided for creating a clamping force effective between the clamping surfaces (24, 26). For forming pairs of clamping surfaces (24, 26) interacting with each other a pack of lamellas lying upon each other is provided, formed from stationary disks (24) connected to the stationary body (2) and from movable disks (26) connected to the movable body (4). The power drive (40) can be used to apply a pressing force to the disks (24, 26) in a clamping area (42).
