Highly Engineered Solutions for the Stamping Industry
What are the benefits of ROEMHELD Quick Die Change products on the stamping industry?
The metal forming industry once enjoyed the luxury of long production runs, high inventory levels, and extended die change times. To survive in today’s competitive global market, manufacturers must reduce inventory costs by running smaller batch sizes and making shorter production runs. One way to maximize press uptime in an environment like this is to implement faster, more effective die changes. ROEMHELD Quick Die Change Solutions are vital if you want to achieve SMED (Single-Minute Exchange of Dies) or JIT manufacturing. We will help you take your die change from hours to minutes. You can also expect:
• Increased machine capacity by improving production and its revenues.
• Improved lead times due to quick changeovers.
• More competitiveness through just-in-time deliveries and better service to customers.
• Reduced inventories due to smaller quantity runs and more frequent changeovers.
• Reduced labor costs since die changes can often be done by the operator.
• Improved safety level. The dies are under control and roll smoothly in and out of the presses during the die change. Also, with automated systems, if the die is not clamped properly, the press simply will not operate
Hydraulic Clamping Solutions
Click below!
Hydraulic clamping systems allow operators to clamp or unclamp the die with a control switch. With hydraulic clamping systems, a loss of retaining force will shut down the press; this is not the case with mechanical bolting systems. Manual bolting torque will not achieve safe and consistent die-retention forces like hydraulic clamping will.
The electric motor driven chain moves the clamping element automatically from the parking position to the clamping position and back.

Positioned manually in the T-slots of the press ram or bed. Suitable where space is limited and with small clamping edges
|
Easily install in existing T-slots without bolster or ram modifications. Give ability to clamp over a plate or ledge without the need for U-slots in the die shoe. Learn More
|
Manually placed on the clamping edge of the die. The hydraulic unit screws onto a standard t-slot bolt.
