  • Patent number: 8770075
    Abstract: Parts with high surface finish are removed from tools of a fine blanking press with accuracy and at high speed. The press has high opening and shutting speeds achieved by a direct drive having high acceleration power, a high turning moment, and small construction dimensions. A cross slide is movable transverse to a working direction of tool parts and is fixed at a frame of the direct drive. The direct drive includes a drive shaft which changes turning direction based on the stroke of a ram that is pivotally connected to the cross slide via an arm, a bracket, and a rapid-action coupling. Rotating motion is converted into a linear motion, which reverses between a rear stop position and a front stop position of the cross slide in a working area.

  • Publication number: 20120097001
    Abstract: A device for removing precision punching respectively fine blanking parts from a tool of a mechanically or hydraulically driven press is provided. The device includes a linked to the ram (18) of the press (14) tool part (22) and a tool part (15) on the bedplate of the press fixed at the frame of the press, a cross slide (8) movable transverse to the working direction of the tool parts, which is developed movable into the working area between the tool parts when one of the tool parts opens and out of it to remove the parts (21) out of the working area when one of the tool parts closes, wherein the cross slide (8) is connected to a fixed at the frame (1) of the press direct drive (2).
