Auto Feed Drills & Tappers

Product catalog summary

Overview
This document serves as a comprehensive guide on Auto Feed Drills & Tappers (AFD), detailing their features, specifications, and selection process. It covers both single and multi-spindle operations, with options for pneumatic and electric drives.

Specifications
The AFD range includes models with motor powers from 0.22 to 1.1 kW and thrusts up to 1557N. Electric motor mounting can be rotated 180° for flexibility. Models are available for both drilling and tapping, with speeds ranging from 330 to 18700 rpm. The systems operate at sound levels below 70 dB(A) and are capable of handling materials like aluminum and mild steel.

Features
Key features include a modular design for flexibility, ease of integration, and control options such as peck feed, dwell, and skip feed. The units are designed with heavy-duty belts and pulleys, some with integral belt tensioners and rigid cast aluminum housing.

Integration and Control
AFD systems can be easily integrated into existing machinery using various mounting clamps and control interfaces. A single signal is required to perform a cycle, with output signals available at datum and depth.

Selection Guide
The document provides a detailed guide on selecting the appropriate AFD model based on specifications like motor power, speed, and thrust. It includes tables for calculating drill diameters and selecting models based on material and hole size.

Accessories
A range of accessories is available, including control blocks, output spindles, chucks, multiple spindle heads, collets, and clamps, enhancing the functionality and adaptability of AFD systems.

Procedures
Detailed instructions are provided for using different models, including air consumption per cycle, dynamic thrust, and working stroke specifications. The document also describes modular output spindles and the need for specific spindles for multi-spindle heads.

Standards and Norms
The spindle systems are sealed to the IP64 standard, ensuring protection against dust and water ingress, and comply with Canadian CSA standards for certain models.

Recommendations
For optimal performance, specific tapping gearboxes and accessories are recommended. The use of heavy-duty belts and pulley drives with integral belt tensioners is suggested for certain models.

Key Data from Tables
Tables provide detailed measurements and specifications for each model, including dimensions, power ratings, speed, thrust, stroke, torque, and weight, as well as air consumption and sound levels.

Critical Information
The document emphasizes selecting the correct model based on power/thrust combination and material capacity. It highlights the modularity of output spindles for customization based on specific application needs.

Additional Information
The document references the Desoutter AFD selection program, assisting in selecting appropriate auto feed drills or tappers based on application parameters such as hole diameter, depth, and material type.
