Product catalog summary
Introduction
REPKON is a renowned supplier of wheel manufacturing systems, offering both manual and fully automated production lines. Their expertise spans over three decades, providing equipment and tooling for various wheel types, including passenger cars, trucks, ATVs, and agricultural vehicles.
Wheel Types and Production
Common wheel types include drop center wheels, full face and bead seat disk attachments, and forged or cast aluminum wheels. REPKON's production lines cover all stages from rim preparation to quality control and painting, enhancing product quality and efficiency.
Fabricated Wheel Projects
REPKON assists in selecting systems like the Uncoil Cut-to-Length System for blank preparation. Their coiling machines and welding systems ensure proper band formation, while profiling systems finalize rim sizing for uniformity. Wheel uniformity is assessed using peak-to-peak and 1st harmonic run-out characteristics.
Assembly and Valve Hole Systems
Valve holes are processed using the Rim Valve Hole System, and final assembly is completed with flowformed or stamped discs. The Wheel Assembly and Welding System integrates these components efficiently.
Equipment and Systems
REPKON offers a range of equipment, including coilers, welders, trimmers, and flowformers. Their systems are designed for high-speed manufacturing and can be customized to solve specific process issues or provide complete new line systems.
