Motorized Turkshead

Yoder recently supplied a motorized turkshead to a west coast manufacturer of mechanical tubing and conduit.  This double turkshead, sized for 3” OD x 0.135” maximum tubing has been operated at speeds up to 1200 FPM.  The motorized adjustment features enables the tube mill operator to remotely adjust the unit while threading up after a tooling or coil change, avoiding the start and stop of the line, minimizing changeover time and setup scrap.  This is the customer’s second Motorized turkshead from Yoder.

Yoder’s Turkshead straighteners and other tube mill accessories are rugged fixtures designed for versatile use in a range of tube, pipe and industrial production environments.  For more information, contact yoder@formtekgroup.com, call (216) 292-4460 or visit www.yodermfg.com.
