Servo Technologies for Metal Stamping
Tuesday, February 25, 2020 - Wednesday, February 26, 2020
Nashville, TN
Application, Capacity and Maintenance
Learn how servo-drive press technology improves stamping speeds, press energy, reverse tonnage, machine vibrations, part quality, die life and equipment life.
Understand how the servo-drive press, servo roll feed, servo transfer system and in-die servo-actuators work together to ensure higher-quality stampings, dimensional repeatability, optimum operating speeds and the lowest overall operating and maintenance costs.
Discover how sheet metal type, strength, thickness and coil width influence the proper selection of press feed and material-straightening equipment.
Topics include:
Maintaining Servo Presses and Feed Lines
• Structural features, frame design, drive types
• Slide guiding systems
• Inspection and maintenance procedures
Press Capacity and Limitations
• Press energy, torque and tonnage
• Forward and reverse tonnage
• Load distribution / off-center loading
Servo Transfer Systems
• Servo vs. mechanical
• Feed considerations
• Application examples
In-Die Part Quality Monitoring and Automatic Tool Adjustment
