Product Advantages
High-Force Frame Structure
The YB61 Frame Series is configured for high-load forming applications and provides the required pressing force for cold extrusion production of different industrial components.
Servo-Assisted Operation
The servo drive system supports fast approach and return movements while allowing digital control of key forming parameters. This configuration helps shorten production cycles and maintain consistent processing conditions.
Programmable Process Management
The PLC and HMI system provide centralized control of pressure, stroke, motion, and other production parameters. Multiple tooling data profiles can be stored and recalled when changing products.
Process Monitoring
Real-time motion curve display allows operators to observe machine movement during the forming cycle. This provides useful process information for production monitoring and parameter optimization.
Integrated Safety Protection
The machine incorporates infrared light curtains and two-hand controls to reduce operator exposure to hazardous areas during machine operation. The PLC also monitors critical operating conditions such as system pressure and hydraulic oil temperature.
FAQ
Q1: What advantages does extrusion forming offer for manufacturing constant velocity (CV) joints compared with conventional hot or cold forging?
A: Extrusion forming combines characteristics of cold extrusion and hot forging. The forming force is lower than that generally required for cold extrusion, which can help reduce die wear. At the same time, it can provide better dimensional accuracy and surface quality than hot forging. The resulting components can approach the required final geometry, reducing the amount of subsequent machining and, in some cases, eliminating additional machining operations.
Q2: How can servo-drive technology increase production efficiency for ball cage production lines?
A: Servo-drive systems provide fast approach and return movements, with speeds of up to 420 mm/s, helping reduce the cycle time required for individual parts. Digital control of forming force and stroke also improves process consistency, helps reduce scrap, and supports continuous high-speed production, including 24/7 operation.
Q3: Can YBW presses be adapted for different CV joint sizes and product types?
A: Yes. The YBW series covers a tonnage range of 500 to 1,200 tons. Depending on the tooling configuration and production requirements, the bolster dimensions, effective working area, stroke, and daylight opening can be customized. The PLC control system can also store multiple tooling data profiles, making product and tooling changeovers more convenient.
Q4: What safety systems are available for high-pressure forming operations?
A: The machine uses sensitive infrared light curtains together with two-hand controls to provide operator protection during operation. The PLC continuously monitors system pressure and hydraulic oil temperature. When abnormal conditions are detected, the control system can activate alarms and automatic shutdown functions to help prevent overload and protect the equipment.
Q5: What after-sales service is available for overseas customers?
A: Overseas customers can receive comprehensive technical support, including 24/7 remote assistance and video guidance for machine installation. On-site installation and commissioning can also be arranged when required, with support from experienced engineers. Spare parts lists and maintenance manuals are provided to help customers maintain the equipment and minimize production downtime.
