Stauff introduces a machine for pre-assembly and final assembly of cutting rings
The machine with description SPR-PRC-POC from the company Stauff is suitable for installing
cutting rings for 24° tube connectors in the light and heavy structural series in accordance with
ISO 8434-1 / DIN 2353 onto the ends of pipes with external pipe diameters of between 6 and 42 mm.
On the grounds of the combined pressure-path-control during the assembly process both the
pressure and the path of travel are specified and are continuously monitored. Should irregularities
occur in one of the two parameters compared to the values entered, the assembly process stops
automatically and a description of the fault is given in the error message on the display.
