Advantages and Features

• Large Working Space: The KF 470 features one of the most generous reaches in the lineup:

  • Horizontal Reach: 460 mm.

  • Vertical Height: 475 mm. These dimensions facilitate the easy processing of oversized parts typical in aircraft and railway carriage manufacturing.

• High Power and Productivity: Capable of forming mild steel up to 3.0 mm and aluminum up to 4.0 mm.

• Servo Drive and Digital Precision:

  • Control System: An electronic control display visualizes operating functions, fault diagnostics, and maintenance intervals.

  • Programming: Ability to store up to 4 (or more, depending on configuration) processing programs to ensure perfect repeatability of results.

  • Adjustment Accuracy: The servo drive guarantees a repetition accuracy of 0.1 mm.

• Dual Stroke Speeds: The operator can choose between two pre-set stroke speeds (e.g., 300/600 strokes/min) to optimize the process (lower speed for thick material, higher for planishing).

• Ram Adjustment: A 60 mm adjustment range via a geared motor allows for quick and precise adaptation of the machine to different tools and material thicknesses.

Standard Equipment

• Massive Stationary Frame: Rigid C-frame construction designed to handle high pressing forces.

• Electronic Control Panel: Featuring a display for parameters, diagnostics, and program selection.

• Speed Selection System: Choice of two stroke speeds (300/600 strokes/min).

• Electromechanical Servo Drive: Ensures high precision and reliability.

• Motorized Upper Ram Height Adjustment: 60 mm adjustment with 0.1 mm precision.

• Quick-Change Tool System: Standard Kraftformer mounting for inserts.

Options

• Expanded Tool Set: The widest range of Eckold tools for all operations (shrinking, stretching, doming, profiling, planishing, leveling).

• Specialized Profile Tools: Tools for processing tubes, U-channels, Z-profiles, and other complex geometries.

• "No-Mar" Tools (Synthetic): For finishing without damaging the surface of sensitive materials (e.g., polished aluminum).

• Adjustable Reverse Position: Option to optimize work with various material thicknesses and minimize idle stroke time.

• Expanded Program Memory: Ability to store a larger number of programs for serial production.

• Control Pedal: For activating the forming cycle.
