KER series

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The document provides detailed information about the KER Series chain bending machines designed for cold bending of round steel chains. These machines are part of WAFIOS's precision machinery offerings for wire and tube processing.

Design and Features
The KER Series machines are robustly designed to produce high-strength chains with strict bending tolerances and high surface finish. Key features include smooth machine operation, safety devices, and positive mechanical control of movements. The KER 8 model includes hydraulically driven auxiliary feeder and slug machine.

Mode of Operation
The operation begins with the chain wire being straightened and pre-bent/notched. The wire is then cut into slugs, which are transported to the bending station. Here, the slugs are inserted into a vertically standing chain link and bent around a mandrel using swivel-mounted bending levers guided by a cam plate.

Quality, Reliability, and Cost-Efficiency
WAFIOS emphasizes the high quality, reliability, and cost-efficiency of their machines. The KER series ensures high production output and long service life, supported by a global service network.

Technical Specifications
The document provides technical data for various KER models (KER 4, KER 5, KER 7, KER 8), detailing wire diameter, feed length, output rates, power requirements, and space needed. For example, the KER 8 can handle wire diameters from 13.0 to 20.0 mm and has a power installation of 22.0 + 37.0 KW.

Product Range
WAFIOS offers a wide range of chain machines, including chain bending machines (KEB series), chain welding machines (KEH and KSH series), and chain calibrating machines (KPH series).

Contact Information
WAFIOS AG is located in Reutlingen, Germany, and can be contacted via phone, fax, or email for further inquiries.
