Tishken MLW Series Medium Light Duty Roll Forming Systems

Tishken MLW Series Medium Light Duty Roll Forming Systems

The Tishken MLW Medium Light Duty Roll Forming Systems are used for forming medium light sections that are slightly wider and slightly deeper than the light series. These machines may be applied efficiently and economically for low as well as high production jobs. The close horizontal distance of roll spindles permits easier forming of pre-notched stock into complicated of irregular shapes. Common products produced on MLW Series roll formers include roll-up garage doors and vinyl window stiffeners.

Tishken MW Series Medium Heavy Duty Roll Forming Systems

Tishken MW Series Medium Heavy Duty Roll Forming Systems

The Tishken MW Medium Heavy Duty Roll Forming Systems are the most popular used in industry today. They are built to withstand the continuous high production pressure placed on roll formed product manufacturers. Highly flexible and readily adaptable, with a great variety of working accessories, the MW machines with heavy-duty shafts are capable of handling medium and light materials up to 30″ wide. These machines together with other models are adapted easily into automation lines performing work in one continuous operation. Truck-trailer components, garage door tracks, seat tracks and other automotive components are most common in the MW Series.

Tishken RLW Series Light Duty Roll Forming Systems

Tishken RLW Series Light Duty Roll Forming Systems

The Tishken RLW Light Duty Roll Forming Systems serve the area of light metal forming. Versatile in operation and readily adjustable for a wide range of light moldings and window air spacers. They require very little floor space and may be easily relocated for production planning. These machines find a wide application in the production of small tubing, trim moldings, weather-strip sections and many other high volume light items. These Roll Forming Machines can also be built with variations to accommodate special operations to fit metal forming needs within the machine’s working range.

Tishken Tilt Type Mechanical Presses

Tishken Tilt Type Mechanical Presses

A specialized press for cutting swept profiles, such as automotive trim. The press can be tilted front to back and left to right, allowing you to cutoff single axis and complex curves. And when the need arises, the Tilt-Type press can be adjusted to operate upright like a traditional mechanical press.

Tishken XH Series Extra Heavy Duty Roll Forming System

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.

Yoder Four-Post Cut-Off Mechanical Presses

Yoder Four-Post Cut-Off Mechanical Presses

Yoder Four-Post Cut-Off Mechanical Presses employ a fabricated steel sub-base, with screw-type lateral and vertical adjustment for machine alignment. The heavy, cast semi-steel frame is stress relieved and accurately machined to insure correct and permanent alignment of moving parts. The heavy duty, machined upper crosshead insures accurate alignment of the die rails, which are hardened and ground, and mounted in pilot grooves.

The crankshaft — a heat treated and machined alloy steel forging — and the flywheel are mounted in grease-lubricated, anti-friction roller bearings with dust seals. The air-operated, multiple-disc clutch and spring set brake are electrically controlled. Provision is made on the P-42 and P-52 presses for non-repeat, single stroke operation, manual cutting, and jogging.

These machines are furnished with a solid-type head, adjustable with spacers or, as an optional feature, can be equipped for setting of shut height with a single screw.

Yoder Hydraulic Presses

Yoder Hydraulic Presses

Yoder Hydraulic Presses are custom built in many ranges and bridge the gap between the economics of pneumatic presses and the heavy-duty performance of mechanical presses. In addition to the range of standard 4-post press sizes, Yoder can integrate custom hydraulic presses to their roll forming or tube mill systems, for inline notching as well as cutoff operations.

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.
