3-RUNNER is a tube end-forming machine with coil or bar loading. Choose the most suitable configuration for the work you want to perform.
Feeding occurs from coil, via a motorized reel, or from bar.
When loading from coil, the tube is straightened using a set of rollers.
When loading from coil, the tube is straightened using a set of rollers.
The tube end-forming module can be configured with up to 6 punches or 4 punches and 1 rotary tool.
Cutting is performed using orbital scoring or saw cutting devices.
The automatic unloading device is fully-integrated into the work cycle and managed by the CNC.
A tube end-forming machine that you can equip as you want
The end-forming module is equipped with the integrated unloading device and you can equip it according to your needs with fixed passages and rotary tools.
A device cut to your needs
Orbital cutting: no chips and burrs
Eliminate chips and achieve maximum edge quality with the orbital cutting system with controlled separation. You don't have to deburr the cutting edges and the part is ready for the next process.
Very fast, very versatile
Maximize productivity with the sawcuttingsystem fitted on the end-forming module and managed by a dedicated electric axis.
Quickly swap the punch!
The punch quick change system is designed to be simple and allow you to change each punch in a few seconds, eliminating any risk of positioning or tightening errors even by inexperienced operators.
The set-up is automatic and does not require manual adjustments.
Perfect repeatability and quality
You are always confident in the quality of your batch. With the dimensional control of the tube end-forming that you can perform in real time and on each part.
3-RUNNER Applications
Choose the safety for your job
3-RUNNER is CE certifiedand designed with safety features to protect the operator during machine operation.
VGP2D: learn and start immediately
Program the work sequence simply and intuitively. Simply select the punch you want to use and VGP2 programming software will set the optimal parameters for you.
You decide where to start
Choose the coil feeder that best suits your production or space requirements: vertical, horizontal or Jumbo.
The tube advancement and recovery is performed in-process and the motor is controlled in both directions.
The feeder may be used in idle mode by selecting the function on the VGP3D program which is fully integrated with the machine software.
Bend from coil with mandrel!
Connect the 3-RUNNER to the SMART and create a fully integrated process feed from a coil, end-form, cut and bend with mandrel. Reduce the cycle time and the cost per part by performing several operations in parallel. Eliminate semi-finished products to be handled and stored. Bend with mandrel and comply with the strictest tolerances (average radius, diameter and thickness).
And it doesn't stop here. Discover our complete production solutions.
