GSE K GSE KS Process modules for thread forming / tapping

High-performance, compact and flexible The GSE process modules for thread forming / tapping are perfectly designed for reliable serial production with very high cycle rates of up to 260 threads/min. The compact modules offer amazing tool changing times in seconds, a wide range of applications and easy handling. They can be integrated into any production concept. GSE K: Flat design for use in presses and / or where tool installation height is low. GSE KS: Narrow design for use in restricted spaces.

GSE K / KS Thread forming / tapping Extremely low wear and short set-up times Wide range of application Operating principle The patented process modules have exceptionally low wear and extremely short set-up times. They do not require a mechanical pitch leader. The innovative principle reduces mechanical wear on tools significantly. This practical design means the speed of the NC drive can be adjusted freely and hence cutting speed can be adapted freely to each type of material. The GSE can cut threads and tap both metric and inch threads in the diameter range M2 to M20. The working stroke is...

GSE K / KS Thread forming / tapping Product features Rapid changeover system – Spindles with thread former can be changed in minutes – Thread former size can be changed in minutes Water cooling system for ultimate dynamics and applications at high ambient temperatures Completely maintenance-free units with central lubrication system Different pre-strokes, return strokes and speeds available with fully variable programming Can be used both horizontally and vertically Speed range up to 9,000 1/min Technical data These performance characteristics are intended as orientation for the maximum possible...

Control system The GSE process modules can be fully integrated in the Bihler process control system VC 1. The separate FMC process control system is used for stand-alone applications. With this separate control system all production parameters can be programmed freely. Only the starting pulse of a superordinate control system is required. Customised user menu All necessary data can be programmed via the control system, using an integrated operator menu designed especially for the process. Process configuration comprises only five parameters. A second level offers fine-tuning for detailed optimisation,...
