Dual-Spindle Thread & Form Rollers
Wheel bolt thread and knurl, ball-head burnish and thread dual-side engine studs.
A technical breakthrough in feed control technology is now allowing fastener machine tool provider, Videx Machine Engineering Ltd., the capability to offer unattended, operator-free machines and to expand the company’s range of dual-spindle machinery.
The new machine models offer an updated flexible design. They also provide fastener manufacturers the ability to safely produce a wider range of parts than ever before as well as with zero risk of bad feeds. The Videx Dual-Spindle machines will straighten, burnish, knurl and thread at high speeds, never before achieved on these machines. The Wheel-Bolt thread rollers that incorporate knurling and thread rolling will now run at speeds of up to 360 wheel bolts per minute. The two rolling operations are independent of each other, eliminating any influence of one rolling operation on the other. Rolling operations that independent of each other thus enable faster production rates, better quality parts and the use of simple and economical dies even on complex rolling operations such as burnishing or straightening. The advantages of the dual spindle machine design include the following:
•Individual adjustments of each rolling operation require less skilled operators.
•Separate rolling operations assure better quality of each rolling operation.
•Higher production speeds; the second operation does not slow down the machine.
•Less handling, eliminating the possibility of mixing parts.
•Lower cost tooling; The dies are replaced in minutes and only when needed.
Additionally, both of the stations on the new Videx Dual-Spindle machines come equipped with the following features:
• Controlled Thread Rolling Feed-Start.
• Auto Die Clamping.
• Zero-Taper Mechanism for parallel threads and Micrometric Thread Pressure Screws.
• Full Speed Control.
• Automatic Air Shut-Off.
• Two Operator Control Panels.
