Product catalog summary

Overview

The document presents technical specifications and advantages of the Uniflex First Class crimping machines, models KS 6 and KS 8. It highlights key features such as greaseless operation, ergonomic design, noise reduction, and universal applicability for hose lines and fittings.

Key Advantages

Greaseless Operation: Slide bearings on the crimp tool eliminate the need for lubrication, resulting in 20% less friction, no wear on the press tool, and no contamination from lubricants.
Ergonomics: Optimized workspace allowing free and quick loading between the front plate, dies, and around the machine head.
Noise Reduction: Very quiet operation due to a new hydraulic system featuring noiseless coupling or internal gear pump.
Universal Use: Suitable for all types of hose lines and fittings.

Dies Diameter Compatibility

The dies types PBK 239 (KS 6) and PBK 237 (KS 8) support a range of diameters from 12 mm up to 106 mm, with the number of dies varying slightly depending on diameter size. Both models cover diameters from 12 mm to 50 mm with 3 to 5 dies, extending up to 106 mm with 5 dies for KS 8.

Additional Features

Optional Equipment: Oil cooler UTS and PFM available.
Hydroforming Pressing: Suitable for calibration pressing.

Summary

The Uniflex First Class KS 6 and KS 8 crimping machines offer high performance with reduced maintenance due to greaseless slide bearings, ergonomic design for ease of use, and quiet operation. They provide a wide crimping range and compatibility with various hose diameters, making them versatile for multiple industrial applications.
