Flex Cams

Preview

For piercing, cutting, forming, & flanging operations

The system allows for a flexible distribution of forces, with optimal direction and velocity. By using a Flex Cam to perform multiple operations fewer tools are required that results in a more cost-effective production.

Applications Example Flex Cams

 

PUNCHING UPWARD AT NEGATIVE ANGLES:

Problem: Punching at negative angles.
Solution: KALLER Flex Cam.
The picture shows holes being made in a car roof section, using a
KALLER Flex Cam.

THE PROCEDURE:

The downward movement of the press is used to raise the pivoting unit up to meet the part. This positions the die button behind the part. The punch is then activated, and the hole is made. Just one example of how KALLER FlexCam solutions are used to solve initially tricky problems in a controlled, and cost effective, manner.

Features & Benefits Flex Cams

Features

  • High precision piercing using accurate guiding elements without side force.
  • Five different Flex Cams and Force Cylinder sizes to optimize the needed room for installation.
  • Free position of the driver and the cam units.
  • Built in safety feature against tool damage or over-pressure.
  • Even and controlled force distribution by always using an Accumulator.

Benefits

  • The number of tools required to produce a part can be reduced.
  • The cost of the tool could be reduced due to a more simplified tool design.
  • It is possible to add operations in existing dies.
  • Cost-effective solution as it can reduce the total number of dies, parts and production time.
  • Give you the most flexible solution when adding more in-die operations.
  • Multi-functional panels and dies is possible by using flexcam.
  • Reduce risk of tool damages by using controlled force.

Power Unit – HCP

Free position in the die, also up-side down. The Accumulator ensures controlled force distribution.

 

 

Compact Cam – CC and CC-H

Compact in size and accurate punch guiding to prolong punch life time. Nitrogen return by using a standard gas spring and even hose able as an option (CC-H).

Flange Cam – CCF and CCF-H

Advanced design for heavy side load applications such as cutting and flanging. Nitrogen return by using a standard gas spring and even hose able as an option (CCF-H).

Force Cylinder – HCF, HCF-SP

Work as a cam slide driver with free position in dies both flange, foot mounted and base mounted (SP). Highly adjustable return force using a separate gas chamber.

Hose System and Adapters

Fulfill high demands for pressure and abrasive conditions in dies. Dual Seal solution with both metal and soft seal secure a leak free installation. Heavy duty soft clamps secure a long hose life time.

Pump Unit – Filling and Bleeding

Simple to use solution for filling and bleeding a system. Drive Cam Units without press for punch and slide alignment setups.

Electrical Pump Unit

Operate free in cycle and timing without any press needed. Two pressure levels ensures a fast cam travel and high force at the operation.

Accessories

Control block available to monitor nitrogen pressures, Cam, Force Cylinder and Accumulator. Sensor kits for Compact Cams allow for both forward and retract control. Quick couplings simplify die
