One of the main problems during automatic fin positioning is the manual effect of operators to set the
right positioning value to the cutting tool. Schaal Technology now offers a new automated and alternatively
semi-automated process solution with a compact system allowing for offset fins a positioning accuracy
of ± 0.1 mm.

Continuously positioning during production process:
This innovative system is based on years of experience with fin forming fin multi track fin lines and the sub-
sequent trimming process. It achieves a positioning accuracy of ±0.01 mm for each individual fin track –
with every track being adjusted independently. In addition, no change of parts is required when switching
products; the system only needs to be recalibrated.

The benefits of the compact positioning system at a glance:

+ Semi automated system, repeatable operator settings
+ Expandable to a fully automatic redundant system
+ Low scrap rate for fins
+ Risk reduction for damaged fins in cooler systems
+ Higher quality output, higher first past yield
+ Positioning accuracy
+ Easy to handle in production
+ Manage different fin pitches

Compelling benefits for customers:

+ High quality output
+ High process capability
+ Higher OEE
+ Accuracy ± 0.01 mm
+ Feeder length up to 3800 mm
+ Feeder speed 3 m/sec
+ Reduced setup time (vs. manual possibilities < 5 min)
+ Repeatability
