LINK-DRIVE LEVERS KINEMATICS

It allows the slide to be slowed down near the PMI and therefore a softer impact with the material being processed.

However, this does not cause an increase in the cycle time as the kinematic mechanism allows a substantial increase in speed during the ascent phase of the slide.

The resulting advantages are: the possibility to perform deep-drawing operations; better quality of the sheared or deep-drawn part; increased productivity for deep-drawing operations; longer die life.
