End forming/roll forming machine offers new control system, includes maintenance diagnostics

August 10, 2010

Manchester Tool & Die Inc. has introduced the model M10-H3-R end forming/roll forming machine, featuring standard MTD components and using the same tooling as the M71-H-3 and 24008 machines.

The unit offers the new HMI programmable, flexible control system and includes diagnostics for machine maintenance. The end forming and roll forming stations are positioned so the operator can load and unload both clamp areas.

The machine can be designed with a six-position end form station for tube end forms that require components to be assembled onto the tube before the rolling processes. The machine footprint is 72 in. wide by 96 in. deep.
