Bar Straightening
Bar Straightening
Why do we do Bar Straightening? Sometimes bars have a stress bend or the end is crooked. With our Medart, Keiserling or press straightener we can straighten your material so that it can be ground to perfection.
It is not uncommon for material to require roll, gag or press straightening before the grind operation. We have in house capabilities to provide this service in order to ensure straight bars. We also have the ability to straighten finished bars where the application requires it.
BELOW ARE FEW OF THE ADVANTAGES STRAIGHTENING CAN BRING TO YOUR BARS:
Gives accurate surface finish to a wide variety of workpieces
Straightening is the easiest method among machining operations and delivers higher accuracy for a variety of workpieces. During the course of operation, there’s no need to worry about cracking in the workpiece because machines can maximize correction and won’t exceed this limit.
Easy to handle with manual adjustment function
Straightening machines have manual functions that you can adjust anytime to keep the machines stable. These machines have an automatic switch (automatic start button) that you can just operate to start completing a series of work while putting large control the labor used – for an improved efficiency.
Durable
Bar straightening can be applied after high-frequency quenching treatment which gives bars high hardness and wears resistance. Straightening wheels are ten times stronger than ordinary wheels which can handle severe operations. Straightening alloy wheels and cutters can be repeatedly used many times but still bring bars to enhanced hardness and longer life.
Saves energy
Straightening alloy wheels are used for faster, easier operation. Since these machines can determine and correct surface errors, reinforced bar damages are small. Straightening machines are also notable for using low power.
Gives desired shape
Straightening can minimize distortion and warping caused by heat-treated operations. It will just take a few adjustments depending on the degree of bending steel to ensure workpiece integrity. Bar straightening machines can determine the workpiece, seeing whether it can meet the requirement or give feedback to the operator.
Straightening machines are compact in design, lightweight, and can be easily installed – and require less supervision in operation since they can determine the degree of the workpiece. They cut and straighten workpieces easily with low noise. These high performing machines can straighten and cut off bars automatically. Their high straightening speed gives way for cutting small errors and zero distortion.
Those advantages mentioned above are concluded by statistics in the machining process. Operators mostly opt for bar straightening methods for more convenient and safer production.
We include bar straightening in our machining solutions.
