Water pump shaft, a perfect application for flow forming
A New remote acceptance procedure has taken place at DENN’s facilities in Barcelona, by an East Europe customer, for a flowforming lathe RL-15. The customer is a leader in the manufacture of water circulation pumps, and the application was to make the inner shafts of the pumps.
From a preform typically made by press, the working rollers of our flowforming lathe applies pressure and elongation to the initial part to get an ideal wall thickness; obtaining a part with no material waste, and a perfect ratio between weight and volume. A chipless technology with a short cycle time, thus achieving a high productivity process.
RL-15 flow forming lathe is the smallest model of the series, a compact machine with all equipment to allow for remote assistance, and into the environment of the best programming system of the market, the DENN-CAS graphical software, and the DENN-DATA, which is DENN’s solution for INDUSTRY 4.0, including productivity data, process analysis, energy consumption, diagnostics, app, etc.
