Our offer included WICK CLENCHER- a freestanding machine which takes previously thread wick from the spool, bits a metal plate (wick sustainer) onto it, and cuts to the appropriate measure. The above operations are performed automatically, the wick is passed to the machine from the spool located inside the device, while the wick sustainers are periodically put into the wick sustainer feeder, which is one of machine components. Machine is equipped with wick length adjustment. The operating speed is infinitely adjustable. Power voltage 400V, 3-phases.
Characteristic:
• Completely mechanical synchronization
The crimping head, cut-off knife and wick feeding system – everything is connected mechanically without complicated electronics, servo drives and pneumatics. This translates into reliability, simple operation and a complete lack of possible collisions of the mechanisms. Appropriate sensors control the correct operation of the machine i.e. the presence of a wick and wick sustainer.
• Changing wick length with one move
The length of the wick is freely adjustable, even during the machine’s operation, and the setting value is displayed on a numeral indicator. It is enough to turn easily accessible crank to set the wick length up to 270 mm.
• Friendly and simple control
Machine equipped only a few buttons to start-up and stop the machine.
• Programmable piece counter
A legible piece counter indicates the quantity produced and shall stop the machine when the set value is reached.
• Smooth performance regulation
The inverter drive allows to set freely the machine’s speed – it is enough to turn the potentiometer.
• Efficiency up to 6 000 pcs/h.
The efficiency of the machine depends on the length of wick.
• High wick sustainer breaking force
Depending on the type of the wick sustainer breaking force can be up to 2,2 kg.
• Wick unwinding system
Special drive system unwind the wick and ensure necessary buffer. This prevents from yanking and secures from tearing the wick.
• Transparent plates’ feeder
It enables easy control of the plates remaining in the dispenser. Special cover’s construction allows to top up the wick sustainers during the machine’s operation in a safely way, preventing the operator’s contact with the moving parts.
• Light and transparent safety guards
Safety guards protect the operator and have appropriate sensors monitoring the guards’ opening – then immediately stop the machine.
• Sturdy and compact construction
The machine have sturdy and compact construction. Approximate dimensions: width 1 050 mm, length 950 mm height 1 850 mm.
