Multi-Station Synchronization: The PLJT-250-25 features an 8-position indexing turntable with servo-controlled positioning accuracy within ±0.005 mm, ensuring perfect alignment for complex filter housings at high speeds.
Intelligent Quality Control: Integrated vision inspection system using 5MP CCD cameras performs real-time dimensional verification with automatic rejection of non-conforming assemblies according to ISO/TS 16949 requirements.
Force Monitoring: Each clipping operation is monitored by proprietary FlexiForce™ sensors that validate clamping pressure within 2-3% tolerance levels, guaranteeing perfect metal-to-rubber seals on filter end caps.
Manufacturing facilities implementing the PLJT-250-25 Full-auto Turntable Clipping Machine report significant operational improvements:
Air Filter Production: With its specialized end cap gripping mechanism, the PLJT-250-25 handles multiple diameter filters from 80mm to 300mm without tool changeovers. Automated media insertion systems ensure precise pleat alignment before clipping operations.
Oil Filter Assembly: The machine's anti-vibration clamping system maintains centering accuracy for bypass valves and pressure relief springs during high-force crimping operations. Double-seal applications requiring O-ring plus gasket compression are executed flawlessly at 27 cycles/minute.
Hybrid & EV Filters: As electric vehicles require specialized HEPA-grade cabin filters, the PLJT-250-25's ISO Class 7 compliant clean-air enclosure prevents particulate contamination during assembly. Its electrostatic discharge protection makes it ideal for EV battery filter manufacturing.
A: The PLJT-250-25 handles carbon steel, stainless steel (304 & 316 grades), and aluminum end caps from 0.6mm to 1.2mm thickness with proprietary wear-resistant carbide tooling. Hardness ratings up to HRC 45 are processed without tool degradation.
A: Complies with CE Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, NFPA 79 industrial standards, and includes SIL-3 rated safety interlocks with dual-channel emergency stop systems validated per ISO 13849-1:2015.
A: The adaptive compensation system automatically adjusts for material thickness variation (±0.1mm) using laser triangulation measurement at Station 2. Clamp force is recalculated in real-time by the control algorithm based on dielectric strength readings.
A: Standard configuration handles Ø50mm to Ø300mm filters with quick-change jaw systems. Optional rotary tooling expander kits extend range to Ø400mm for industrial-grade filters without compromising cycle time.
A: Operators report sustained OEE of 89-92% due to
A: At 7.5kW peak load, the PLJT-250-25 consumes 40% less power than competitive models. The ECO-mode activates during idle periods, reducing standby energy use to
The PLJT-250-25 Full-auto Turntable Clipping Machine has demonstrated versatility across sectors:
