F87 THE ULTIMATE UNIVERSAL THERMOFORMER

Machine with in-mouId trim, which nullifies shrinkage effects on trim

accuracy. It has been designed to process all types of thermopIastic materials.

Th2 F87 forming station and automatic product handling is designed for

multiple row moulds, in-line and/or staggered layout. The international

patented “vacuum plate" and unloading system, including stacking and

counting, provides a labor free handling with high hygienic.

The F87 design incorporates the “Smart Drive” and the moving parts in

automated product handling are made of Iight weight, durable carbon

fibre material, which assures optimized cycle speed with lower

production costs.

The "Smart Drive" consists of:

DRIVES: Axis control far all motors connected to electronic cams.

SEQUENCING: Operator has screen access to all machine functions with

precision time settings available.

RECIPE CARD: it assures repeat settings and quick mould changes.

STORAGE: for important maintenance records & production information.

MODEL F87 MAIN FEATURES:

Index drive

Electronic servo drive with profiled acceleration/deceleration torque.

The chain rails can be retracted away from the form station, during

mould change, far easy access.

Oven (heating elements)

C shape oven with top and bottom ceramic heater elements arranged

in longitudinal and transversal zones.

Special features are built into the oven to avoid sag problems typically

experienced in traditional ovens.

Sheet edge preheaters, located at the entrance of the oven (optional).

Forming station

Platen movement is driven by a toggle/cam assembly where the trim is

operated by an independent hydraulic action without load drive cams/shafts.

The ower platen is driven by a brushless servo motor. During the

forming/trimming phase, motor stops, reverts and after the end of the

forming cycle it begins a new cycle. The stroke of the lower platen is

adjustable depending on product height. (Depth of draw)

Plug assist

Third motion servo driven plug assist independent from platen movement
