WC-550

Introduction

WC-550 is a high speed crimping, applicator, and press machine used in a wide variety of industrial applications. The machine has a modular design, allowing for easy setup and maintenance. There are two versions offered; the standard and optional version. The standard version features an innovative design that reduces force required for proper crimping. The optional version is equipped with an additional tension gauge and enhanced software.

Crimping Jaw Design and Working Principle

The WC-550 has a robust, sturdy jaw design. The cutting edge of the finger-shaped jaw is made of a special steel alloy that is designed to be hard and durable. This design gives the jaw cutting and application ability of almost any material, without delaminating or splitting them. The cutting edge of the finger-shaped jaw is designed to cut into the material, providing the necessary tension for proper crimping.

The Jaw is operated by a stepper motor, controlled by software. The motor feeds the robust jaw and causes the jaw to cut into the material. The tension gauge enables the operator to measure the tension created during the cutting process, ensuring that the proper tension is applied during the crimping process. The jaw movement is also monitored by an encoder, which helps the operator understand when the level of tension is adequate.

Press and Application Principle

The WC-550 is also equipped with a stong mechanical press that has a maximum capacity of 12 tons. This press helps to shape and press the material into a specific shape or profile. The press is capable of producing any type of curl, rivet, or other shape. Once the press is activated, it compresses the material to the desired shape, and then the forged mold is released.The press can also be used to apply hot stamps or apply other types of color grading or treatment.

Safety Features

The WC-550 is equipped with several safety features that help ensure the user’s safety while operating the machine. The first safety feature is a built-in automatic shutoff and emergency stop system that will immediately shut off the machine whenever an emergency situation is detected. Additionally, each tool is fitted with its own overload protection system, which prevents overloading or damage to the tool.

Conclusion

The WC-550 is a high speed crimping, applicator, and press machine that can be used in a variety of industrial applications. The machine has a modular design, allowing for easy setup and maintenance, and is equipped with a robust, sturdy jaw design that provides cutting and application ability for almost any material. Additionally, the machine is equipped with a strong mechanical press and several safety features that help ensure the user’s safety while operating the machine.
