Standard Products

Orbitform pneumatic powerheads are arranged by size and head-forming capacity. All Orbitform powerheads have accompanying options and mounting possibilities to give you the best performance.

Optimum Use:

• Minimal rivet shank swell
• Works with delicate products
• Controllable forming process
• Can form a vast array of materials

Special Considerations:

• Uses pneumatics - eliminates air-over-oil tanks
• Aesthetically appealing finished form
• Articulating and fixed joints
• Multiple peen configurations for variety of head forms

Optimum Use:

• Minimal rivet shank swell
• Works with robust products
• Controllable forming process
• Can form a vast array of materials

Special Considerations:

• Uses air-over-oil
• Aesthetically appealing finished form
• Articulating and fixed joints
• Multiple peen configurations for variety of head forms

Servo driven powerheads offer precision control, variable advance and retract rates, and a range of forming forces for delicate to technically demanding assembly applications. Servo drive provides control and speed.

Optimum Use:

• Reduces Cycle Time, can advance and retract up to 4 inches per second
• Process validation
• Form to a force and a distance
• Save multiple programmed heights
• Alternative to pneumatic or hydraulic
• High precision forming
• Precision programmed dwell in both position and time to reduce spring-back after forming
• Perfect for precision articulating joints

Special Considerations:

• Pressure Pads (part clamping and height sensing)
• Columns with height adjustment
• Multiple tooling configurations
• Turn-key systems available
