The new Single Overhead Spiral Uncoiling system from Burr Oak Tool is designed for use on single tube cut off machines.

It has no moving parts, no coil stand, and requires minimal coil movement.

Reduced material handling decreases tube damage.

This new uncoiling system can be used with any cutoff machine, Oak or otherwise.

Tubing diameters 1/2" or larger, and harder tempered tubing limit the effectiveness of the system.

Hydraulic Slit Selector Clamp Hydraulic Slit Selector Clamp Logo

 

The Hydraulic Slit Selector Clamp is new design innovation applicable to most fin dies. This allows the selector plate to be correctly positioned by one person from either side of the press using a positioning lever and hydraulically powered clamps. It allows safer changeovers because the guards stay in place. There is a simple "on/off" switch that activates the hydraulic clamp which provides a positive, locked position.

M4 M4 Logo

This new design of the return elbow crossover bend machine utilizes a touch screen control to make bend angle changes painless. There are no tooling replacement costs, because older tooling can still be used on the new M4. The new controller detects exact position of bend head and displays saw blade life. This design also utilizes new clear guarding to allow full view of machine operation.
