Two servo drives

The two servo drives in the BZ2-S8 ensure increased production speeds with continuously variable stroke rates from 5 through 700 spm. Thanks to the servo drives, the braking angles have now been considerably reduced, and the machine only continues to run for a short time in the event of a malfunction. This also reduces the risk of tool damage.

Cooling system / circulating lubrication (maintenance-free cooling without oil loss)

The circulating lubrication system and the cooling mechanism are designed as closed, encapsulated systems. As a result, all the units are lubricated as if they were in a circuit and the oil is then collected again and fed into the tank. Because the circulating oil system does not generally need to be refilled, the previously high level of oil consumption is dramatically reduced. As a result, the new BZ2-S8 is cleaner during operation and also extremely economical and environmentally friendly.

Encapsulated slide units (connected to the central circulating lubrication system, including cooling)

The slide units have a nominal forming capacity of maximum 50 kN and a maximum stroke of 10 mm. All the units have been adapted to the high speeds and are very robust. Like the press, the units are also connected to the new, central circulating lubrication system, which includes cooling.

Increased tool space (plus 140 mm)

The open machine concept and the increased workspace, which has been enlarged by 140 mm, are further advantages of the new BZ2-S8 processing center. They guarantee fast, simple changeover and maintenance of the tools. In addition, it is also an easy task to integrate further manufacturing processing units in the system. The BZ2-S8 is operated and controlled easily and securely using the VariControl VC 1 controller.

Encapsulated 100 kN eccentric press (connected to the central circulating lubrication system, including cooling)

The Bihler eccentric press in the BZ2-S8 provides a nominal stamping force of 100 kN. This means that practically all forming and stamping operations can be performed precisely and powerfully. Highlight: The Bihler press is encapsulated and connected to the new, central circulating lubrication system.

Central die with direct servo drive

The central die in the BZ2-S8 processing center is equipped with a direct servo drive that runs absolutely quietly, even at high speeds. In terms of production performance, flexibility, process reliability and manufacturing quality, the BZ2-S8 can compete with any progressive processing technology.

Encapsulated 300 kN eccentric press (connected to the central circulating lubrication system, including cooling)

The Bihler eccentric press in the BZ2-S8 provides a nominal stamping force of 300 kN. This means that practically all forming and stamping operations can be performed precisely and powerfully. Highlight: The Bihler press is encapsulated and also connected to the new, central circulating lubrication system.

Highly dynamic material feed

The servo-controlled RZV 2.1 radial gripper feed boasts high feed speeds and excellent positioning accuracy. The multiple clamping system ensures gentle handling of strip and wire material.
