Applicator with Air Feed System
NOTE
The air supply connection (shown in Figure 2) must be connected to an air supply line providing continuous pressure of 5.00 to
6.00 bars [72 to 87 psi] at the applicator.
NOTE
NO oil lubrication of air for the OCEAN Air Feed module is required after receiving and use within a production environment.
The ram continues downward, completes the crimping action, and starts back up. As it approaches the fully
raised position, the push rod drops off the high portion of the ram mounted cam, shifting the air feed valve. The
extend
side of the cylinder is then filled, moving the feed pawl and terminal strip over the anvil for the next
cycle. The exhaust control valves control the speed of the feed stroke and retract stroke.
Though all air feeds are pre-feed type, the feed cam position can be changed for use in different stroke
machines: 40-mm [1
5
/
8
-in.] stroke or 30-mm [1
1
/
8
-in.] stroke (refer to Figures 7 and 9).
Note that the air feed requires a different cam than the mechanical pre-feed or post-feed.
