Conversion kit

Description
The CAP TOOL converts standard single-cavity dies into roller dies. A special geometry produced by EDM prevents the roller from leaving its seat except via a designated side, avoiding roller ejection that could damage the sheet. In addition to minimizing marks on the sheet and reducing required bending force by approximately 20%, the solution can eliminate the need for protective films and enables reuse of worn or otherwise obsolete dies.

Advantages

• Conversion of single-cavity dies into roller dies
• EDM-crafted geometry to retain the roller in its seat
• Approx. 20% reduction in required bending force
• Fewer or eliminated marks on sheet metal
• Removes the need for protective films
• Allows recovery and reuse of old or damaged dies

Technical notes

• Geometry produced by EDM (electro-discharge machining)
• Design prevents roller ejection except via the intended side, reducing sheet damage
