RM-SERIES STAMPING-FORMING MACHINES RM 40K RM 40KS RM 40P

For greatest cost-efficiency and manufacturing reliability The RM series – three high-performance Bihler automatic stamping and forming machines with which you increase the quality of your precision components, significantly reduce piece costs and quite simply manufacture even more economically and with greater process reliability. With the all-purpose, flexible and diversely expandable RM 40K, KS and P you develop new application possibilities. The 40KS and P machines display their strengths specifically in the field of thin, high-strength steels. The open system design allows the integration...

RM 40K Stamping-Forming Machine The highlights at a glance powerful, universally applicable machine system for the manufacture of stamping-forming precision parts made from wire and strip high production speeds up to 350 1/min. perfectly designed for radial and linear tooling concepts rigid 90 kN two-point eccentric press with large mounting area large center aperture in the work-plate for flexible central mandrel movements rapid tool-exchange system for shortest changeover time user friendly VC1-E control with 15” touch screen compact design and construction owing to integrated control cabinet...

PRESS The two-point eccentric press (90 kN, 30° before BDC) is characterized by a larger space for die sets. Dies up to 320 mm in length and 170 mm wide are easily accommodated here. The height above BDC is 116 mm, the stroke 12 mm and the stroke position adjustment 0 to -3.5 mm. The RM 40K can also be equipped with an optional 70 kN eccentric press. Equipment from older machines is compatible. FEED A mechanical feed incorporating feed-time reduction guarantees that materials are precision-fed into the machine. The feed gripper and non-return gripper are both hydraulically activated and are electronically...

SLIDE UNITS (RM 40K/KS/P) To achieve faster tool-exchange all normal slide units and all narrow slide units are equipped with an innovative rapid tool-clamping system. The punch-holder interlock is quickly and easily released by a pin. After the new tool is inserted it must only be fixed using the clamping pin. The old tool mounting-system is also retained, allowing the RM 35, RM 40 and RM 40E tools to be fitted to the new machine’s slides. In addition, the innovative cam system consisting of a cam carrier and driving disk ensure that the cams are rapidly exchanged.

RM 40KS Stamping-Forming Machine The highlights at a glance compact, powerful machine system for enlarged parts range especially in the field of high tensile steels strong 150 kN two-point eccentric press unit with large mounting area high press rigidity allows the use of high perfor- mance carbide tools guaranteed process reliability through press force monitoring and bearing temperature sensors two additional drive positions below the press automatic hydraulic tool clamping system provides accuracy with minimum set-up time expanded central aperture for flexible central mandrel movements highend...

FEED As in the RM 40P, this machine includes a NC radial gripper feed (RZV 2) as a standard. This feed minimizes set-up times and achieves impressive speeds at greatly reduced feed cycle while offering outstanding positioning accuracy. It is also possible to fit a mechanical feed. RM 40KS NEW DRIVE POSITIONS Two additional drive positions beneath the press facilitate movements from below without having to lift the punching strip in the cutting tool. Drawing bushings, bending cores or bending movements can be actuated. Complex turn rounds in the cutting tool can therefore be avoided. Stamping-Forming...

PRESS The powerful 150 kN two-point eccentric press offers a lot of mounting space for modern dies. Strips of up to 80 mm wide can be machined precisely. Wider strips are possible as option. The improved rigidity of the press extends tool life and allows the use of high performance carbide tools. Two pivoting tie-rods on the press ease the removal and fitting of die sets and help to shorten set-up times. An optional hydraulic tool-clamping system also accelerates and simplifies set-up. Up to two mechanical actuations for welding appliances can be mounted on the press housing. Bearing temperature...

RM 40P Stamping-Forming Machine The highlights at a glance strong, compact machine system for extended area of application especially in the field of high-tensile steels and complete assemblies more space at work plate due to separate press module easy integration of additional processing units for tapping, screw insertion, welding, etc. more than 1.000 mm of manufacturing space in case of linear toolings powerful 200 kN two-point eccentric press with large mounting area high press rigidity allows the use of high perfor- mance carbide tools three additional drive positions (work plate/press module)...

SEPARATE PRESS MODULE The RM 40P consists of a separate 200 kN press module. This press module creates an additional 1.000 mm of manufacturing space at the machine’s work plate allowing further operations, such as: tapping, welding, screw insertion, assembly, inspection, laser marking, etc. to be easily integrated. Located beneath the press is an additional drive position for movements into the press from below. RM 40P Stamping-Forming Machine CENTRAL MANDREL (RM 40K/KS/P) The workplate has a large center aperture (400 mm x 122 mm), allowing a maximum of three mechanically central-mandrels up...

NEW DESIGN (RM 40KS/P) The RM 40P impresses, like the RM 40KS, in its new design. All the electric, pneumatic, hydraulic and lubrication pipes are laid behind the machine paneling. The machines appear extremely “tidy” and make the operator’s work safer. The danger of buckling or severing of cables or hoses and/or the associated plug connectors is effectively prevented. Rapid access to the pipes is made by simply opening the panels. All cables can be easily run through the cable channel openings.
