Servo technology ServoDirect Technology FLEXIBLE PRESS TECHNOLOGY Presses with ServoDirect Technology are driven directly by high-perfor- mance torque motors. These develop high levels of torque, making them the appropriate drive for dynamic forming processes and allowing the slide speeds and motion sequences to be programmed individually. Servo press- es are characterized by maximum flex- ibility, high output and short die change times. They are also surprisingly posi- tive in terms of energy consumption. ServoDirect Technology can be used in stamping and forming presses, transfer and prog-die...

Systems for blank manufacturing 2 Overview 14 Blanking lines with ServoDirect Technology 15 Blanking lines with swivel shear 17 13

Systems for blank manufacturing Overview Blanking lines consist of a coil feed unit, blanking press or shear and a stacking system. The most appropriate blanking method is determined by the production lot sizes, the material being processed and the criteria for reducing scrap. Depending on what the customer needs, it is possible to configure all machine types either for steel processing alone, or processing steel and aluminum. Blanking lines WITH SERVODIREcT TECHNOLOGY Maximum flexibility and availability. (Page 15) BLANKING LINES WITH SWIVEL SHEAR High performance step-by-step. (Page 17) ALUMINUM...
