MODEL PF MECHANICAL FEED 

One-way rollers grip material 

on the forward stroke. 

Eccentric disc is powered by 

the crankshaft extension 

on the press. 

Removable handle for hand 

cycling allows operator to 

check feed progressions 

manually. 

The "Original" Dynamic Feed 

The PF mechanical Feed was the first press feed 

manufactured and marketed by Dynamic more than 

30 years ago. Today, it is still considered one of the 

best mechanical feeds on the market because of its 

simple design and trouble-free service. 

Extremely Durable and Versatile 

The main frame of the Mechanical Feed is made from 

high-strength cast aluminum and can be mounted to 

virtually any kind of press. It is completely powered 

by the press, which means it has few wear parts and 

requires no additional energy source. 

The eccentric disc is powered by the 

crankshaft extension on the press. 

The adjustable wedge block 

on the eccentric disc 

controls the feed 

stroke, and because it 

is the last link in the 

drive train, it assures feed 

accuracy. 

The cross member driven by the 

eccentric disc works like a piston in an 

engine. The feed head on the 

moving cross member has 

non-reversing clutch 

bearings in the rolls so it 

can roll on the back 

stroke and lock on the 

forward stroke. The stationary 

feed head on the front cross 

member lets the material pass 

through but prevents it from backing up. 

The PF Mechanical Feed has a 

removable handle that slides over the 

clutch system to disengage the 

feed from the press. This 

allows the feed to be 

hand-cycled without 

running the press, or 

the press to be 

cycled without moving the 

feed. The single point of entry 

on the clutch assures the press 

and feed are in time when restarted. 

Features: 

• Durable main frame made of high-strength, cast aluminum. 

• Guide rods made of hardened and ground shaft steel 

equipped with linear ceramic bushings. 

• Feed rolls with non-reversing bearings grip material only 


• Bottom feedhead roll is mounted on an eccentric to 

accommodate materials of various thicknesses. Range 

must vary considerably (approx. 3/16") before adjustment is 

needed. 

• Removable handle slides over clutch mechanism for 

manual hand cycling. 

• Mounting plate ±1" of adjustment (±3" with optional 

mounting plate). 

Benefits: 

• Completely powered by the press: 

~ Ensures optimum feed speed. 

~ Requires no additional energy to run. 

• Can be mounted to virtually any type of press, on either 

side of a mechanical press or on a front-to-back crankshaft 

press. 

• Provides years of tireless, uninterrupted service due to lowmaintenance 

design which uses few wear parts. 

• Provides precision tolerances from .002" to .005" 

(depending on material and progression rates). 

• Can be hand cycled to check feed progressions without 

running the press. 

• Allows rapid stock changeover with simple adjustments for 

width, thickness and length. 

• Two models accommodate material widths up to 15" and 

lengths up to 10".

MODEL PF MECHANICAL FEED 

Setting Up The Mechanical Feed 

The Mechanical Feed is quick and easy to set up and 

allows rapid changeovers from one size stock to 

another. 

♦ Adjust the feed width by loosening 4 bolts and 

sliding feed heads and materal guide rolls to the 

desired position. 

♦ Adjust the material thickness by loosening the 

eccentric on the bottom feed roll and then raising 

or lowering as desired. 

♦ Adjust the feed length by unlocking the wedge on 

the eccentric disc and turning the adjusting rod to 

move the wedge off center. When desired length is 

reached, relock the wedge with the locking rod. 

For applications that change from one standard feed 

length to another, use a ground pin, dowel or gauge block 

to set the length.

To Set Up: 

Use a ground pin between moving block "A" and 

stationary block "B." The relationship of distance is not 

direct; i.e., 2.040 may equal a 2.00" feed length. 

However, once one is established, all other feed lengths 

can be determined.

MODEL DX SERVOFEED 

AC brushless servo motor 

with built-in resolver. 

The Dynamic ServoFeed 

is a powerful feeding 

system that combines the 

strongest attributes of 

three proven technologies: 

• The Dynamic Feed Gripping System. 

• A rotating linear ball screw system. 

• An AC brushless servo drive motor. 

This powerful combination enables the 

Dynamic ServoFeed to deliver up to three 

times the pulling force of any comparable size 

servo feed and provide more torque and gripping 

power than conventional roll type servo feeds. 

Low inertia and optimum gear ratio is inherent 

through the mechanical advantage of the linear 

ball screw which allows the ServoFeed to operate 

at high speeds without the use of gears, pulleys, 

belts or chains. 

High Accuracy Rating 

The Dynamic ServoFeed maintains an 

unprecedented level of efficiency and accuracy 

even after repeated use. Virtually no lost motion 

exists between the drive and ball screw which 

allows the ServoFeed to maintain an accuracy 

rating of between .002" and .004" (depending on 

the application). 

Completely Computer Driven 

The Dynamic ServoFeed utilizes microprocessor 

technology and software-user interface techniques 

to enhance programming capabilities for standard 

and special applications. 

Auto Gag Sequencing/Skip Feeding 

Special feeding sequences can be programmed to 

achieve varying feed lengths, skips and repetitions. 

This is ideal for the type of tooling that lends itself 

to families of parts (parts with same size holes, 

notches, knockouts or forms, but with different 

overall lengths or hole locations). 

006006 

Rotating ball screw delivers 3 times 

the pulling force of other servo feeds. 

Features: 

• AC brushless servo drive motor. 

• Dynamic feed gripping system. 

• Linear ball-screw system. 

• Mounting plate ±1" adjustment. 

• Console containing operator controls, motor drive and 

microprocessor control: 

~ User-friendly keypad and display walks user through 

the initial start up. 

~ On-the-fly feed length change. 

~ .001" minimum programming increment. 

~ Forward/reverse jog control. 

~ Remote jog push button. 

~ Emergency stop button. 

~ Main power switch. 

~ Up to 200 jobs stored by part number at front panel. 

~ RS 232 link for remote programming. 

~ 5 programmable outputs and 4 standard outputs 

(Top Stop, Feed Complete, Ready to Feed, Fault). 

Benefits: 

• Delivers up to 3 times the pulling force of any 

comparable size servo feed. 

• Provides more torque and gripping power than 

conventional roll feeds. 

• Virtually no lost motion between drive and ball-screw 

provides accuracy between .002" and .004". 

• Quick set-up time. Requires input of only 2 parameters. 

• No computer training needed. 

• Jog control allows user to jog through feed cycle for 

exact feed length. 

• Easily adaptable to special applications requiring special 

feeding sequences (gag punching or skip feeding). 



MODEL DX SERVOFEED 

Quick and Easy Set Up 

The DX ServoFeed requires no computer training to 

operate. The user-friendly keypad walks the user 

through a simple start up process 

prompting for two parameter 

entries: 

❶ Feed Progressions 

❷ Speed Parameters 

The feed has been 

programmed with 

automatic and manual 

jog functions allowing 

the user to jog through 

a feed cycle to 

determine exact feed length. Feed length can also 

be changed on the fly by simply turning the jog 

switch either forward or reverse to get a preset 

increment or decrement.

MODEL DXY ZIG-ZAG SERVOFEED 

Dynamic was the first to offer a simple zig-zag 

solution and has been building zig-zags for more 

than 20 years. The DXY Zig-Zag ServoFeed offers 

dramatic advantages in stagger feeding as compared 

to other zig-zag feeds which tend to be mechanically 

complex and difficult to operate and maintain. The 

model DXY is completely automated using proprietary 

software interface techniques to calculate and 

set up all machine parameters quickly and accurately. 

The X-Y movement allows parts to be nested in a 

staggered pattern for optimum material yield and, 

unlike any other stagger feed on the market, the DXY 

allows you to: 

♦ Automatically calculate your best pattern for 

optimum material yield in seconds. 

♦ Make on-the-fly web adjustments. 

♦ Make on-the-fly material centering adjustments. 

High Torque and Pulling Power 

Designed for optimum performance, the 

model DXY utilizes the basic mechanical 

advantages of the standard DX ServoFeed 

set up in a dual-axis format. A linear ball 

screw and an AC brushless servo motor in 

each axis provide high torque and 

maximum pulling force. The powerful 

Dynamic gripping system uses one-way 

rollers to grip material on the forward 

stroke and hold it on the return stroke. 

Automatic, Simultaneous X-Y Set Up 

System set up and calibration is so simple 

it requires no computer training. Simply 

enter: 

❶ Number of columns per strip (2-out, 

3-out, etc.), or material width 

❷ Part diameter 

❸ Web width 

❹ Speed Parameters 

Once job parameters are entered, the 

controller automatically calculates the 

optimum movement in each axis and sets 

up the feed to deliver the material in a 

simutaneous X-Y movement. This allows 

the feed to deliver material at high speeds. 

008008 

Features:

MODEL DX BAR STOCK SERVOFEED 

End-of-stock detector. 

One way rollers 

prevent bar stock 

from backing up. 

The emergence of the DX Bar Stock 

ServoFeed has impacted 

manufacturers working with heavy 

bar stock by automating the bar 

feeding process for a variety of 

applications. 

Easy to Operate 

The DX Bar Feed does not require any 

computer training to set up. The 

operator can retrieve a stored part 

parameter from memory or enter 

three parameters: 

❶ Speed Parameters 

❷ Feed length 

❸ Die Distance 

Once parameters are entered, the operator inserts the first 

bar into the die and starts the press 

in automatic mode. When the end 

of the bar is sensed by the end-ofstock 

detector, the press is 

automatically top-stopped and the 

feed heads are positioned to 

receive the 

next bar. The operator places the next 

bar in position and the press is 

restarted. Tail scrap length is 

automatically calculated and pushed 

through the die when the new bar is 

placed into initial position. 

Model DX Bar Stock ServoFeed 

Completely programmable, the 

DX automated bar feed uses a 

heavy duty gripping system, ball 

screw and servo motor for 

maximum torque and pulling 

power. Feeds stock up to 600 lbs.

MODEL DXY/EV SERVO-DRIVEN ZIG-ZAG ROLL FEED 

A unique concept in high speed, zigzag 

roll feeding, the DXY/EV allows 

parts to be fed in a staggered pattern 

for optimum material yield. Material is 

fed in a simultaneous X-Y movement 

allowing incoming material to travel at 

high speeds through the rolls on the 

X-axis. At the same time, the Y-axis 

movement is controlled by a rotating 

linear ball screw which maximizes 

speed and provides high torque and 

low inertia. 

Y-Axis Movement 

X-Axis Movement 

Compact 

Like the standard single-axis DX/EV 

Roll Feed, the Zig-Zag feed is compact 

and can be easily mounted to any side 

of a press. The roll feed is driven by an 

AC servo motor while the Y axis 

movement of the feed is powered by a 

combination AC motor and linear ball 

screw. 

Versatile 

The DXY/EV can be programmed to 

feed material in a single or dual axis 

format. It can also be used to push or 

pull material through the die. 

Easy System Set-Up 

The DXY/EV has two easy set up 

options: 

❶ Enter: 1 diameter; 2 web; 3 number 

of columns and speed rate 

parameters; 

OR 

❷ Enter: 1 diameter; 2 web; 3 material 

width and speed rate parameters 

(Auto-Calc). 

The system will calculate the 

simultaneous X-Y moves for these 

given parameters. Many times washer 

manufacturers utilize the Auto-Calc 

option since they can utilize a single 

width for various washer diameters.

MODEL PLC PALLET DECOILER WITH PRECISION LOOP CONTROL 

Ideal For Thin Material 

The Dynamic Products PD/PLC Pallet 

Decoiler is one of the toughest 

decoilers on the market and is 

especially advantageous for thin 

material (.004"/0,102mm) due to its 

high precision loop control. 

Precision Loop Control 

Powered by an AC motor, the PLC has 

a variable speed drive system which 

uses a precision loop arm and a 

hydrostatic gearbox to regulate the 

speed of the rotary plate. As the loop 

arm raises, the speed of the rotary 

plate increases giving the PLC 

immediate speed at the small ID and 

high torque to accelerate full loads. 

Equally as important, the hydrostatic 

system acts as a brake to stop the 

rotary plate quickly without coasting. 

PLC/H Heavy Duty Model 

The PLC is also offered with a heavyduty 

hydrostatic drive system and 

heavy-duty loop arm for large coils of 

material. It is ideal for running canend 

pull-tab stock on conversion 

presses due to its immediate stop 

and start capabilities. 

PLC/HS For High Speed Lines 

For applications requiring high speed 

payout, the high speed model 

(PLC/HS) pays out material at a rate of 

up to 350 feet per minute. 

Closure Liner and Glassine Stock 

The standard 48" (1220mm) or 63" 

(1600mm) PLC model works 

extremely well for thin material like 

closure liner stock due to carefully 

regulated speed and delicate pull 

back on the material. This model can 

also be easily upfitted with a glassine 

reel to allow 

glassine 

stock to be 

run simultaneously 

with the 

liner stock.

The compact units are mounted on a 

common base so alignment and moving 

the unit is never a problem. Also, all the 

hoses and wires are channeled through 

the chassis of the machine so there is no 

chance for damage. 

An encoder measures the actual 

movement of the material and not the 

rotation of a roll. If the material slips at 

the roll, the system will stop the press. 

This closed loop system can save die 

damage since most material slips occur 

when first feeding. 

Special items that customers like are the 

ability to change feed line height 

hydraulically by push button and 

hydraulically opening the straightening 

head for threading and cleaning. 

All of the straightening and feed rolls 

release for piloting, not just the feed rolls 

which is typical on other pull through 

systems. There are 11 total rolls, nine 

straightening rolls and 2 pinch rolls. 

These are in a bank adjustment head, like 

precision levelers, so no individual rolls 

need to be adjusted. This allows the rolls 

to be smaller and spaced closer together 

to achieve better flatness. 

With hydraulic reel rotation and 

expansion combined with the hold down 

arms and two-axis peelers as standard, 

the coil can be threaded safely via push 

button. All the customer has to do is cut 

the bands on the coil.
