New chamfer and stamp machines

Videx is offering a new series of machines for chamfer and stamp hi-tensile studs (for B7) with optional drilling (for weld studs).

E

ach model has capacity for a wide range of wire diameters and lengths. These CE safety-approved machines are easy to set-up, and are low maintenance. They are designed and constructed for production of small and medium sized batches.

Videx points out that the heavy-duty chamfer heads produce a clean

smooth chamfer, and longer life of the chamfer tips. The chamfers are cut dry, at high speed, without lubricant and the dry chips are then ejected from the machine, keeping the work area

dry and clean. Stamping can be single, or double-end. The machines accept pre-cut blanks, which can be fed automatically by an

external feeder, or by a hand-feed magazine. When working from long bars, Videx offers a quick-change feed table, and a

bar shear that will cut the bars to a precise length, and remove the bar ends to a recycle bin. Working from coil is also possible, up to M24 (1 inch). An optional conveyor

can also be added, to feed the chamfered and stamped blanks into a thread roller, if required.
