The SD-100 Series Screw-Nut Driving Head

SD-100 Series Screw/Nut Driving Head

The SD-100 Series Screw/Nut Driving Head is attached to a 24 inch column and is designed for automated driving applications. The head can be purchased untooled or tooled for your specific production requirements with a feeder, trackage, and placement jaws.

The SD-100 Series Screw/Nut Driver can be furnished with a wide range of driving speeds and torque capacities using either DC electric or pneumatic motors. A torque and depth sensing control verify when a fastener is properly driven during each driving cycle and accuracy can be achieved in various ways depending on the application requirements. Depth settings can be held to ± 2 turns with standard tooling. Closer depth tolerances can be achieved with optional controls. While driving, each fastener is held in the placement jaws until the fastener is properly engaged. The placement jaws are then opened mechanically.
