Description
8.18353 Die changing station with drive

dies up to a weight of 200 kN

The cost-effective drive system has been developed on the basis of standard die consoles and can be easily installed as it requires only little space. Thus, it is very suitable for both retrofitting and new constructions.
The drive unit and the carrying console are hung in hooks provided on the press for this purpose and then locked. The die is deposited on the consoles using a crane or a forklift truck. After the die has been deposited, it can be connected to the changing station by means of a push-and-pull system.
The integral chain drive system allows the user automatic die loading and positioning, just by depressing a push-button on a separate remote control pendant. During a die change, the press bed is free, i.e. the push- and-pull elements do not project over the press bed. Also the rear side of the press is completely free.
This changing station is suitable for almost any press, can be easily removed and is easy to handle.
