    摘要: Presented are hybrid fixture assemblies with integrated additive manufactured features, methods for making/using such fixtures, and manufacturing systems equipped with such fixtures. A manufacturing fixture assembly includes a fixture support frame formed, at least in part, from a first material, and a fixture support shell formed, at least in part, from a second material distinct from the first material. The support frame, which seats on/mounts to a work surface, includes a skeletal substructure with multiple male connectors projecting therefrom. The skeletal substructure contains multiple first frame walls that are removably intermeshed with multiple second frame walls in a collapsible format. The support shell includes a support surface that holds a workpiece, an interface surface that abuts the skeletal substructure, and multiple female connectors that project from the interface surface. Each female connector removably receives therein a respective male connector to thereby detachably mount the support shell to the support frame.

    摘要: An expansion tool includes a housing, a collar rotatably coupled to the housing, the collar including a plurality of slots, a plurality of jaws, each jaw having a projection received in a corresponding one of the plurality of slots such that the jaws are coupled for co-rotation with the collar, a mandrel moveable relative to the housing between a retracted position and an extended position, the mandrel engageable with the jaws to expand the jaws in response to movement of the mandrel to the extended position, and a cone received within the plurality of jaws and engageable with inner surfaces of the plurality of jaws. The mandrel is configured to engage the cone to move the cone with the mandrel to expand the jaws as the mandrel moves toward the extended position, and a rotation mechanism is configured to incrementally rotate the collar.

    摘要: The invention relates to a hydraulic punch device with a hydraulically driven punch carrier for releasably seating a punch and a die with a die opening adapted to the punch cross-section of the punch. To provide a punch device that makes it possible to reliably produce differently shaped holes, the punch has a punch cross-section different from a circular cross-section.

    摘要: Machines for bending profiles, metal sheets and the like are provided. Such machines include those having a structure or frame and a bending device with three rollers. The axis (x1) of the first roller is fixed relative to the structure or frame, while the axes (x2, x3) of the second and third rollers are movable relative to each other, and hence each relative to the axis (x1) of the first roller, so as to define a curved path with an adjustable radius of curvature along which the material to be bent is caused to move passing between said rollers. The bending device may further include an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the axes (x2, x3) of the second and third rollers with two degrees of freedom. The adjustment mechanism may include a pair of tilting arms hinged to the structure or frame so as to tilt about respective fixed axes of rotation (x4, x5) oriented parallel to the axes (x1, x2, x3) of the three rollers. The axes (x2, x3) of the second and third rollers may be guided each by a respective tilting arm along a respective direction of translation (y1, y2) which is fixed relative to that tilting arm.

    摘要: The invention relates to a punch carrier for a punch machine comprising a piston unit exchangeably arranged on the punch machine, and a punch holder arranged on the piston unit for exchangeably arranging a punch. Furthermore, the invention relates to a hydraulic punch machine comprising: a hydraulically driven punch carrier and a die adapted to a punch.In order to provide a punch machine as well as a punch carrier for a punch machine that reliably allows an easy exchange of the punch to adapt to changing processing requirements, the punch holder has a punch seat transversal to the direction of the longitudinal axis of the piston unit, and a stripper that can be attached to the punch machine and has a passage for the punch, wherein the stripper is designed such that it fixes the punch in an operating position in the punch seat. Furthermore, it is provided that the punch carrier is designed according to one or more of claims 1 to 5.

    摘要: A pipe bender, including: a base; a frame including a position switching mechanism, a first position switching assembly, and a bending stand including a second position switching assembly; a calibration device; a feeding device; a cutting device; a feeding path arranged transversely; a bending device; a receiving device arranged longitudinally; and a controller. The calibration device includes two calibration mechanisms including separate processing paths to calibrate two kinds of pipes having different diameters. The feeding device includes two feeding channels for transporting the two kinds of pipes, and the first position switching assembly is used for aligning the two feeding channels with the feeding path in turn. The bending device includes two bending channels for bending the two kinds of pipes, and the second position switching assembly is used for aligning the two bending channels with the feeding path in turn.
