With the HB 60E Bihler now includes a high-speed press in its range of products. It is based on the latest Hummingbird of the US partner Minster Machine Company. Especially for the European market Bihler combines the proven features of the Minster press with the adapted, user-friendly press control EC-P, an optimized machine design and an integrated operator protection. The HB 60E was designed specifically to meet the needs of stampers involved in the high volume production of intricate parts requiring extreme accuracy, uniformity and process security. As non plus ultra amongst the high-speed presses this machine is suited for the manufacture of highly complex parts especially for the automotive and electronic industry.
In stepless version the 600 kN press is capable of 1000 SPM with a stroke length of 15 mm making the HB 60E the fastest machine of its type in this tonnage range. Ideal for parts such as electrical laminations, small intricate parts for office machines and electronic equipment, automotive parts, long and short runs. The flexibility of the optional infinitely adjustable stroke and standard quick access slide features with motorized shutheight adjustment expand the use of the machine from punching and flat blanking to formed parts. The rigid guiding system, combined with the hydraulic clutch/brake system allows for fast starting and stopping, providing the ultimate in part precision, die life and productivity.
The hydromechanical forming provides the ideal method for producing parts with complex shapes in one operation, Shapes that in many cases are almost impossible to produce by conventional means.
