| The figure
represents the principle of an "S-S" machine. Here,
the spindle (4) and dies(5)
are fixed. They do not rotate around the workpiece. Here, this
is the head (1), which is
rotating. This type of machine is used to obtain cross-sectioned
shapes other than round (triangular, square, polygonal, etc.).
This
stationary spindle machine can have 2, 3 or 4 dies and can
be adapted to swage cold or hot material. |
