Machine-specific application possibilities

The S8 Slotting Machine is used wherever complex slotting and coining operations need to be performed on cylindrical and/or internally splined hollow parts, such as transmission components for vehicles or sheet-metal parts with functional elements. Typical operations include cutting sheet-metal parts to length, slotting holes, openings or grooves, coining features (for example oil baffles or assembly aids in clutch carrier plates) or bending operations (such as bending tabs). Since the S8 operates with a mechanical slotting stroke with a defined end position, combined slotting and coining operations can also be performed – for example for producing retaining-ring grooves in clutch carriers. Depending on the application, the slotting direction can be chosen from inside to outside or vice versa. The machine can be equipped with 1 to 4 slotting stations with integrated, fully automatic workpiece transfer.
