Die Cutting Fiberglass Insulation HVAC Material on Belt Clamp Feed System

SCHWABE USA Straight Ram Hydraulic Beam Press SR230

Fiberglass is used as resilient blankets for liquid natural gas tanks, pipe insulation, duct liners and die cut for HVAC insulation applications e.g. temperature insulation, acoustical insulation pads and blankets.

Safety

Safety Guarding – Meets or exceeds all OSHA machine safety requirements including specification 1910.217(f) as interpreted by Manufacturer.
Head Safety Block – For working under the head of the press.
E-Stop Safety Relays – These relays provide 3 primary functions:
Detect faults on safety-related electrical control circuits (i.e. faults in sensors, wiring, contactors, etc.)
Provides an ensured switching action.
Provides a manual reset facility.
Outfeed guarding

Feed System

Type – Clamp feed/ belt combination
Continuous belt traveling through press, utilized as a material carrier and cutting surface, transported by a rear (in-feed) mounted pneumatic clamp feed unit, with no staging area beyond the guard.Clamp feed system complete with one movable pneumatically actuated clamp bar with linear bearing guide for smooth, precise travel. Also includes one pneumatically actuated fixed clamp bar with manual controls located on in feed side of press. Moveable clamp is powered by a Servo Drive for accurate positioning of the cutting belt.
