FX-180 Crimping Machine

　　The FX-180 (composite bevel-type) crimping machine is a member of the FX series, featuring a brand-new, unique composite cylinder and composite bevel technology with independent intellectual property rights, and embodies the latest international trends.

　　This model is a large-caliber, ultra-large-opening, and ultra-wide-application crimping machine meticulously designed through our company’s extensive and long-term production experience, coupled with comprehensive feedback on quality information gathered from a wide range of users. It features not only composite cylinder technology in the crimping head—compared to the SDX series—it also incorporates a composite inclined-surface locking mechanism. Moreover, this model boasts a significantly greater speed ratio between the fast and slow stages during the entire 40-millimeter expansion and contraction cycle of the die holder. This results in an extended slow-speed segment throughout the entire contraction stroke, thereby increasing the effective force-bearing (i.e., crimping) section and enabling a broader range of crimping size control. Additionally, the die holder adopts a basin-shaped contact with the front cover, minimizing frictional resistance. This makes it a powerful and highly efficient crimping machine. Throughout the entire manufacturing process, we have employed advanced digital machining technologies and utilized high-quality alloy steel materials combined with a unique heat treatment process, pushing beyond the conventional limits of wear resistance and load-bearing capacity inherent in domestically produced alloy steels after heat treatment. Only by meeting these comprehensive conditions and achieving breakthroughs in heat treatment processes can we design and manufacture this first-class crimping machine series that simultaneously enhances crimping force and ensures exceptional service life.

　　When operating this model, the following features are also available: (1) The mold base employs a guided sliding structure, which can compensate for the deformation of the support springs caused by fatigue over long-term use, thereby eliminating the defect of uneven spacing between adjacent clamping molds that requires readjustment. (2) As the mold base synchronously drives the clamping molds to perform radial contraction and expansion movements, it also undergoes only minimal axial movement, enabling quick and effortless control over the clamping position when crimping hose assemblies. (3) In terms of crimping dimension control, the displacement control principle is utilized, with an imported scale-adjusting dial employed to precisely regulate the crimping dimensions. This allows the crimping dimensions to be directly matched with the scale readings on the dial, achieving an accuracy of up to 0.01 mm. The crimping control section is equipped with either manual or automatic operation modes for user selection. (4) The main machine body adopts a horizontal design, and the central height of the locking mechanism is optimally suited for crimping large hose assemblies, making it particularly well-suited for crimping large-flange and large-diameter oil pipelines.
