Damper Blade Cutoff Die for OEM RF Mfg.


HillEngineering of Carol Stream, IL, a member of the Formtek Group, has recently helped a OEM Roll Forming and Coil Processing company to provide a new flying slug type cutoff die for a damper blade style product with tight round curl at one end of the part. Hill Engineering used their 60+ year experience in designing a die cutting inserts, using the most advanced tool steels that would fit in the narrow areas of the curl. That gave the area the most support possible to allow the cutoff blade to impact the curl, get a good cut without breaking the insert.

Hill Engineering pre designed and built the updated HX series rail assembly, press frame, and provided a new operators console to include adding the existing mill controls into one cabinet. The Hill Engineering team worked with the customer to time the shipment of  the components to work within the customer time frame to minimize their overall inconvenience
