Tishken XH Series Extra Heavy Duty Roll Forming System

The Tishken XH Extra Heavy Duty Roll Forming Systems are the largest standard size Roll Forming Machines made by Tishken for practical production rolling. Designed to meet the demand for handling wide and deep heavy sections, these machines are constructed with ample room for a great variety of working accessories. In addition, these models give all the advantages found in the lighter models. Guard rails, automotive bumpers, and a variety of other products using high strength steels and exotic metals.

Winpro S-Series Roll Forming Systems

Winpro S-Series Roll Forming Systems

Winpro S-Series Roll Forming Systems are designed to manufacture up to 4 different stiffener shapes without a tooling change.

The S-Series can have up to four sets of rolls installed on the movable chassis for easy alignment with the uncoiler and the pre-notch equipment. Product changeover will happen in a matter of minutes; drastically reducing downtime and allowing more time for production.

The S-series can be configured with notching for lock and hardware access, so the vinyl stiffeners come off the machine complete, cut to finished length, ready to assemble windows and doors, for just in time fenestration production.

Winpro Screen Express® Screen Assembly Machine

Winpro Screen Express® Screen Assembly Machine

Winpro Screen Express Systems automate an inefficient and manual process of spline insertion on window screens. This technological advancement in the fenestration industry raises the bar for productivity, efficiency, and cost savings. The Screen Express can provide a distinct competitive advantage over the competition. By automating what was previously a difficult and manual process, the Winpro Screen Express ends repetitive motion injuries often experienced by workers in the window fabrication industry. With the Screen Express, the production of more high-quality screens per hour is possible without the costly labor required to normally do so. This semi-automatic process is less labor intensive than a traditional manual process, translating to considerable cost savings in the end and a hefty improvement to the bottom line as well.

Winpro Screen Express® SS Screen Assembly Machine

Winpro Screen Express® SS Screen Assembly Machine

Like the Winpro Screen Express Systems, the Screen Express SS Systems automate an inefficient and manual process of spline insertion on window screens. This technological advancement in the fenestration industry raises the bar for productivity, efficiency, and cost savings. The Screen Express SScan provide a distinct competitive advantage over the competition. By automating what was previously a difficult and manual process, the Winpro Screen Express SS ends repetitive motion injuries often experienced by workers in the window fabrication industry. With the Screen Express SS, the production of more high-quality screens per hour is possible without the costly labor required to normally do so. This semi-automatic process is less labor intensive than a traditional manual process, translating to considerable cost savings in the end and a hefty improvement to the bottom line as well. Winpro Screen Express SS Systems can handle screen assemblies up to 48″ x 96″, enabling manufacturers to incorporate patio door sizes into the high production assembly process of the Screen Express. Additionally, the SS includes a dual drive design, for consistent processing of the larger screen sizes.

Winpro SFM-Series Roll Forming Systems for Screen Frames and Muntins

Winpro SFM-Series Roll Forming Systems for Screen Frames and Muntins

Winpro SFM-Series Roll Forming Systems for Screen Frames and Muntins have the flexibility to manufacture either muntins or screen frames or both without changing tooling.

This machine is designed to have up to four sets of rolls installed on the movable chassis. Each set of rolls can be easily aligned with the uncoiler and the closed-loop, flying cutoff saw for fast product changeovers.

Yoder Idlers, Side Pass Stands, Non-Driven Stands

Yoder Idlers, Side Pass Stands, Non-Driven Stands

Yoder Idlers, also known as side pass or non-driven stands, are offered in a yoke or crevice style roll housing, with either a worm height adjustment or shimm-able height adjustment.

  • Yoder M-Series Roll Forming Systems: The idle side roll supports, arranged for lateral cross adjustment by screw, for proper pressure adjustment with respect to the centerline of the mill. Vertical adjustment by worm and screw. Arranged one between each driven stand. A steel yoke ties the top of the spindles together. The yoke is easily removed for changing tools.
  • Yoder WH-Series Roll Forming Systems: base mounted idle side roll stands, arranged for lateral cross-adjustment by screw and for proper pressure adjustment with respect to the centerline of the mill.
    • Idler stands include Yoder’s unique top yoke design. This design secures the yoke without the use of threaded roll shafts and hold-down nuts.
    • Vertical idler height adjustment is by shim or worm screw.
    • Optional Idler roll shaft center-to-center distance displayed using a digital counter similar to that used on the driven roll stand SPA adjustment. Indicates center-to-center distance in inches (e.g., 8.000”).
Yoder M-Series Roll Forming Systems

Yoder M-Series Roll Forming Systems

Yoder M-Series Roll Forming Systems are one of the most popular and copied mill stands in the world. Highlights of these systems include:

  • Drive housing encloses all gears in oil tight case.
  • Precision Timken tapered roller bearings (inboard side).
  • Roller bearings, rotating in hardened sleeves (outboard side).
  • Features toggle-link gear train to maintain full gear mesh through entire top roll shaft adjustment.
  • Outboard housing removable from ends of roll spindles and adjustable laterally on spindles. This permits most advantageous support of roll shafts during forming of narrow sections.
  • Alloy steel roll spindles, carburized, hardened, and ground.
  • Hardened hex-type clamping nuts.
  • Micrometer screws to facilitate accurate adjustment of spindles after roll changes.
  • Toggle-type idler gears permit maximum roll adjustment but maintain constant gear mesh.
  • Chain-type flexible coupling interconnects worm shafts of individual roll stands.
  • Top driven idle gear mechanicals available.
Yoder QVW-Series Roll Forming Systems

Yoder QVW-Series Roll Forming Systems

Yoder QVW-Series Roll Forming Systems feature:

  • Rafted for quick changeover.
  • Spring-loaded universals for quick disconnect.
  • Precision Timken tapered roller bearings (inboard side).
  • Roller bearings, rotating in hardened sleeves (outboard side).
  • Alloy steel roll spindles, carburized, hardened and ground.
  • Hardened hex-type clamping nuts.
  • Micrometer screws to facilitate accurate adjustment of spindles after roll changes.
Yoder Single-Point Adjustment (SPA) Kits

Yoder Single-Point Adjustment (SPA) Kits

Yoder Single-Point Adjustment (SPA) Kits deliver the most precision to make it easier to use and more practical to own.

  • No wrenches required to make top shaft adjustments — with the option of hand wheels or hand crank.
  • Digital readouts on both inboard and outboard stands.
  • Readouts indicate actual top-to-bottom shaft displacement in inches with a resolution of 0.0005″.
  • Readouts and screw jacks are matched for actual vertical adjustment dimension, not some random number that has to be saved for reference
  • Screw jacks have true anti-backlash gearing. The assemblies can be adjusted in the future, to maintain the zero backlash and precise location.
  • Spring-loaded linkage coupling makes un-cocking or cocking of top shaft easy to notice and easy to do. (see below)
  • Can be retrofitted to Yoder and non-Yoder mill stands.
