Shear-Form sheet metal and plate machinery at MACH 2010

  • Shear-Form sheet metal and plate machinery at MACH 2010
Shear-Form Machine Tools, the sheet metal and plate working machinery supplier, will exhibit an ACF Corner Former and a Haeger insertion press at MACH 2010, stand 4864d, part of the Metalworking Machinery Makers Association's (MMMA) pavilion.

The Haeger 824 WindowTouch-3 insertion press, with a Multi-Shuttle single tooling platform, is designed for standard and made-to-order tooling, providing a solution to tool changeover between nuts, studs and stand-offs, enabling the user to make changeovers in around two minutes, without the need for re-alignment.

The ACF 'Multiflex' Cornerformer is designed to form corners on sheet metal parts such as electrical cabinet doors, computer casings, trays and lids. Its tooling design gives the operator flexibility in individual door fabrication regardless of the material being used, the thickness of the material or the flange height of the door, and there is no panel or door size limitation. It can form four closed corners of a single zinc coated mild steel door in around 60 seconds.

There will also be a graphic display and information on the complete range of coil processing equipment from Dimeco Alipresse including their programmable Flexipunch.

Information will also be available on Dimeco's latest ECODRIVE-2 roll feeder, part of a servo drive package for roll feeders and specially designed for companies wishing to automate existing press equipment and wanting the advantages of a servo-roll feeder for the cost of an air feed drive. ECODRIVE-2 roll feeders are able to operate at maximum 300 spm for coil strips ranging from 0.1 mm to 6 mm thick and in widths up to 1,020 mm wide.
