High-precision knurling machine designed for the preparation of aluminum profiles in thermal break assembly lines.

General

The AS 242L is a specialized machine engineered for the efficient insertion of polyamide or plastic bars into the slots of aluminum thermal break profiles. The system utilizes a four-motorized rotor drive to prevent bar obstruction during the feeding process, ensuring a smooth and continuous workflow. Designed to increase productivity by up to 30%, the device replaces manual alignment with an automatic centering system. The unit features independent vertical controls and a single transverse control, all equipped with decimal position indicators for high-precision bar guide adjustments.

Features

  • High-speed bar insertion system designed for reduced cycle times.
  • Four motorized rotor drive system to prevent material jamming during insertion.
  • Automatic centering system to eliminate the need for manual bar-to-profile alignment.
  • Decimal position indicators for precise transverse and vertical bar guide adjustments.
  • Integrated button control for the partial insertion of bars into the lower profile.
  • Automatic ejection system for the bar's tail end.
  • Omittable bar stop functionality managed via push-button control.
  • Capability to handle bar heights ranging from 10 mm to 60 mm (0.4" – 2.4").
