Machine: Radius Former Brand: RFS Protech Model Number: PT-7
RFS Protech PT-7 Radius Former
- Protech PT-7 Radius Former for accurately fabricating curved laminates such as arched headers and radiused moldings for windows an doors, furniture parts, etc. The PT-7 solves these problems and can produce a wide range of shapes up to 4 1/2″ thick and 7″ wide with separate forms
- Protech PT-7 can form parts with a minimum inside diameter of 12″ and a maximum diameter of 96″. Maximum inside arch height is 54″
- Maximum part thickness is 4 1/2″
- Maximum part width is 7″
- The main frame press frame uses heavy wall steel tubing for strength and long life
- (41) Machined rails support dual sets of heavy aluminum arms to act as forms for various shape pieces. These arms are easily adjustable assist in setting up various shapes
- (31) Pneumatic clamps, each with manual control and a special quick connect fitting, apply clamping pressure to the parts for laminating
- Clamping pressure is applied in a progressive manner, beginning in the middle, to allow the laminates to move slightly in relation to eachfor tighter laminated parts
- The machine does not require forms or fixed shapes of any kind
- The machine operates with either cold curing of glues or with the optional heat bands for faster curing times
