Automatic Self Feed Fixtured Industrial Production Drills
Lou Zampini & Associates is proud to offer it's customers with the full ranges of feed drills from industry leading manufacturers IR Ingersoll Rand and CP Desoutter. The AFD system can be built into simple semi-automatic as well as highly complicated transfer line machines using the basic drilling or tapping units and a range of clamps. Controls built into the head of the tool plus simplified circuitry enable the equipment to become fully automatic. Emphasizing it's versatility the AFD installation can be stripped down and the basic units used again in other machines when production requirements change. The AFD system can be used individually, or in combination with any number of drills or tappers.
It's control head is unique. An air signal starts and controls the drilling or tapping cycle. An air signal is also developed during the cycle which can be utilized, with suitable circuitry, to supply pilot air to actuate other drills, indexing tables, or clamping devices as well as providing a cycle completion signal.
