The Ball Pull-Out system:
(Cycle
details) |
Pulls out a ball from inside the tube thereby forming the
collar. Ball Pull-Out system is used when collar diameter is close to the run
tube diameter (main tube diameter). Tubes require an oval pilot hole when using
this system. Pilot holes can be produced on the optional Extruder System, or be
made on a NC milling machine, drill or other way.
Ball Pull-Out system can
produce a 1:1 collar, meaning that you can put a 21.3 OD collar on a 21.3 OD
tube.

The Extruder system:
(Cycle
details) |
Optional feature. Pushes out a "punch" that cuts an oval pilot
hole, and pushes out further to form a collar. Extruder system is a lot faster
than the Ball Pull-Out System and is therefore very suitable for large scale
production. Can form even very small ID collars but can't be used when collar
diameter is close to main tube diameter (run tube). If the collar diameter of
the collar is close to the run tube, the Extruder system can cut the pilot holes
for the Ball Pull-Out system.

Sizing system: |
Both Ball Pull-Out and Extruder system are equipped with a
sizing punch that ensures the almost perfect ID accuracy and roundnesss of the
collar.
|
|
NC-Feed: |
Optional feature. Automatically feeds the work to the exact
position where the collar is to be formed. Ensures precission and saves
considerable time.
