Hill Engineering In-Line Standard Window Fenestration Saws
The Standard Window Fenestration Saw from Hill Engineering uses “Closed Loop” technology which brings a new dimension to high speed in-line sawing of roll formed aluminum screen frames, window spacers, closed shapes and tubing cut directly off the roll former to “Assembly” tolerances up to 140 FPM holding ± .020” to .030” on 24” min. lengths. These units can also run up to 300 F.P.M. holding ±.040″. For Screen Frame and Muntin.
Hill Engineering Mechanical Presses
Hill Engineering can utilize various Mechanical Press types within the Formtek family of brands for pre-notch/pre-punch/pre-cut/embossing applications, as well as product cut-off applications. Four-post, two-post, open-throat, tilt type, or commercial presses from various manufacturers can be reviewed to solve our customer’s application.
Hill Engineering Tube Cutoff Hydraulic Die/Press System
The Hill Engineering Tube Cutoff Hydraulic Die/Press System is an “in-line” system which features a blade that cuts through a pre-notched opening. Photocell drops mechanical pickup into correct opening to relate pre-notch pattern to cutoff ends.
Yoder “Hot Sizer” Hot Sizing Mill System
The Yoder “Hot Sizer” Hot Sizing Mill System consists of multiple stands to reduce and re-round API pipe which has been immediately heat treated. The Hot Sizer is customized based on the amount of work required from the Customer’s specifications. The Yoder Hot Sizer is accustomed to experiencing pipe temperatures as high as 1100˚ F and can handle speeds up to 200 FPM. Quick-change as well as special drive arrangement options are available to help our Customer’s experience high throughput on their heat treating finishing floors.
Yoder Cold-Stretch Reduction Small Diameter W-10 / W-15 Tube Mill
In response to the increasing world wide demand for small diameter (i.e., 0.188″ to 0.375″ OD) steel tube for both refrigeration and automotive purposes, Yoder can provide equipment for production of these tubes. Since 1992, complete Yoder Cold-Stretch Reduction Small Diameter W-10 / W-15 Tube Mill Systems have been supplied to Turkey, China (2 lines), South Africa, and the United States. This U.S. line may be the first new mill of its type installed domestically in the last fifteen years.
Yoder Four-Headed Mill Cutoff — partnership with Milltech
Yoder has been involved with the pipe producing market for many years. Cutoffs have evolved from rotary disc or tool machines to friction saws to the latest saw technologies. Milling saws provide a fantastic edge finish with minimum burr but tend to have longer cycle times. Formtek works with its licensee Milltech to provide the pipe mill markets the highest quality with the greatest performance. Milltech has developed mill cutoff systems utilizing 2-heads or 4-heads (depending on pipe size) to provide the best combination of end finish and cycle time performance. These machines are designed to handle the heavy strains put on them by the demanding cycles required by our customers.
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 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, 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”).
