Dallas
servo feeds with pull-thru straighteners are engineered, built and
have the power to easily handle materials up to .650 inch thick
and widths from 6 up to 84 inches. Coil weights can be up to 50,000
lb. They are best utilized in progressive die and transfer-type
stamping operations. The close proximity of the straightener to
the press tooling facilitates rapid flatness correction of coil
stock as it is being processed.
Dallas pull-thru straighteners are available with 5, 7, 9, 11 and
17 straightening rolls in 2-1/4 up to 3-1/2 inch diameters on 5
inch centers depending on flatness requirements. Additional features
include LCD readouts, powered and air operated pinch rolls, automatic
disengage clutch, pivoting straightening head plus special roll
coatings are also available, all designed to help reduce job change
down time while making presses more productive. |

Hydraulic
Upenders
West
Bend Equipment hydraulic upenders provide great flexibility to meet
your material handling requirements. Hydraulic upender platforms
can be sized to handle a wide variety of load configurations, including
long loads such as paper rolls, or other loads whose length is significantly
greater than its width or diameter.
Hydraulic
upenders employ one or more double-acting cylinders to rotate the
platforms. On a hydraulic upender, one platform may be significantly
smaller or larger than the other. This makes these upenders suitable
for loads that are larger in one dimension than the other. These
coil upenders can also handle more than one coil.
West
Bend Equipment Hydraulic Upender The hydraulic upender's power unit
provides an ideal power source for secondary functions such as shifting
saddles and pallet centering.
A variety
of hydraulic coil upenders with fully integrated, heavy-duty hydraulics
and precise positioning is available.
Optional
platform sizes can be designed to customize West Bend's hydraulic
upenders. Other options include tilting capability, various types
of conveyor decks, and wheels for rail travel or mobile capability. |
