The BRUDERER BBV
260 feed unit is the successor to the highly successful BBV 202. The roll feed
updates the family of mechanical driven feeders and features several impressive
innovations. The automated thickness setting and the quick-action roller change
are only two examples.
The mechanical
design of the BRUDERER BBV 260 strip feed unit is very similar to the BBV 450
which has been introduced to the market two years ago. In comparison with the
predecessor model – the BBV 202 – the new feed has been consistently developed
to increase the advantages for customers yet further.
One improvement
is the automatic material thickness adjustment that dispenses with manual
adjustments or the use of adjustment motors. This unique feature has been
realised through the rearrangement of rocker arms and rollers and through the
selected length ratios of the components. As it is now unnecessary to adjust the
material thickness axis during the retooling process, the set-up sequence is
significantly faster and easier. Moreover the rollers can be rapidly and simply
clipped in and out for cleaning, replacement or profiling. This also extends the
range of applications of the new BBV 260 to those sections in which pre-punched
and profiled strips are used.
These and other
innovative solutions combine guaranteed maximum precision with the highest
reliability and availability. The first BBV 260 will be used in conjunction with
the equally new BSTA 1250 and BSTA 1600 types and will be available from March
2006. The product range will then be extended to embrace machines with press
forces of 500 kN. |
