Modular machine tool concept for effective production of cold forged parts

Increasing pressure from fierce competition is forcing manufacturers of cold forged parts to become far more flexible in terms of production at a time when quality is continually being enhanced and pressure on production costs is intensifying. Machine builders are rising up to this challenge by producting higher output machinery equipped with quick tool changing systems. A new generation of double stroke headers is to be linked to the Formax multistation cold forging presses concept which was introduced last year. The latest machinery is easy to operate and is fitted with changeable components guaranteeing high output levels.
