The Pullmatic 720/520 can be equipped with a fully automatic tapping tool to increase time and cost savings.
Process:
Pre-punch and if required extrusion of the hole in thin material.
Material positioned automatically to the tapping unit.
The tapping unit automatically taps the hole/extrusion.
Advantages:
Weld and insert nuts used today increases the number of operations to finish the part, thereby increasing the production cost per part.
Shorter process time with less production time per part, which improves machine time availability.
By utilizing extrusions in material thickness up to 3mm, the thread height will be equal to nut inserts.
Does not generate any chips from cutting the thread.
