How Can Multi-Slide Presses Revolutionize Your Spring and Fastener Production?

In my 30 years of experience in the mechanical and electrical automation industry, I've seen how specialized equipment can transform production lines. One such game-changer is the multi-slide press, a versatile machine designed for forming products from wire, metal strips, and strips through stamping. But what makes these machines so essential, and how can they benefit your operations?

What Are Multi-Slide Presses and Where Are They Used?

Multi-slide presses are indispensable in mass production scenarios, especially when manufacturing significant quantities of similar products. They are widely used in:

• Electrical Engineering: Components for contact groups, terminals, clamps, and other elements.
• Automotive Industry: Fasteners, buckles, connections, and clips.
• Mechanical Engineering: Specialized types of spring elements, brackets, hooks, and more.

The operational principle revolves around impacting the workpiece with specially shaped tools. These tools move radially within eight or more sliders positioned on the vertical front panel of the molding machine, controlled by a cam mechanism or servos. Some models even come with a punching press for additional operations like slotting and bending.

How Does an Automatic Clamps Forming Machine Work?

One of the standout machines in this category is the Automatic Clamps Forming Machine. This machine is designed for forming wire with a diameter of 0.6 - 2.5 mm and strips up to 30 mm wide and 0.3-1.2 mm thick. It's perfect for producing clamps, fasteners, hardware, door trims, hinges, brackets, springs, and more.
