Coil feeder NC system eliminates feeding loop
An exciting concept in flexible, NC, high speed coil feeding eliminates the need for any feeding loop from the coil so that the feeding line is only 4m long.
The Haeger '412' is a fully hydraulic 36kN capacity press with a 300mm throat depth and a stroke infinitely adjustable from 0-152mm, operating at 106strokes/min with insertion forces as low as1.1 kN, to offer both reliability and energy efficiency.
The '412' is designed for use with mild steel fasteners up to 1/4-20/M6 nuts, 10-32/M5 studs and 10-32/M5 standoffs.
Options available for the '412' include either an imperial or metric 16-piece manual tooling package, to meet the demands of most manual hardware insertion requirements.
An upgrade kit enables Haeger's MAS-9 modular Autofeed System vacuum generator and/or batch counter to be retrofitted.
The kit also includes a PLC expansion module, program and additional electrical system changes.
Shuttle tooling for studs and standoffs comprising orientation and singulation modules, vacuum anvil, pivot arms with a tube adaptor and lower tooling.
Other optional extras include the choice of an imperial or metric 11-piece J-Frame tooling package and mounting kit as well as bottom feed tooling for nuts.
