Compression Limiters Installation Technology

This exceptionally versatile tool for post-mould assemblies is ideally suited to all levels of production: from a single unit for prototype assembly, to multiple units on an assembly line. The SPIROL® Model CM Manual Compression Limiter Installation Machine easily accommodates quick change-overs by simply: • Replacing the fixture • Swapping insertion punch/pusher tip • Adjusting the positive stop for new install height. The use of high quality shafting and bearings results in smooth operation, precise positioning, repeatability, and durability. The Model CM Manual Compression Limiter Installation Machine installs Compression Limiters ranging in diameter from M3 to M10 metric and #4 to 3/8" unified, and has a maximum insertion force of 0.9kN (200 lbs).

The Model CLX operates the same way as SPIROL's Model CL, yet this extra-large Compression Limiter Installation Machine is custom-designed to accommodate larger assemblies outside the standard footprint of the Model CL. Visit www.SPIROL.com to learn more!

This robust, vertical installation machine is specifically designed to install Compression Limiters into a variety of plastic components. The machine is available in two models: the CL1000 is capable of 4.4 kN (or 1,000 lbs.) of installation force and the CL2000 is capable of 8.8 kN (or 2,000 lbs. of installation force, and is available with multiple installation tips in nearly any configuration at various elevations. The incorporation of a touchscreen operator interface machines makes our machines easy to use and customisable. Language conversion is easily executed to support international use. The Model CL is equipped with installation verification to ensure that the machine has completed a full installation cycle and a Compression Limiter was installed at each location. This highly flexible platen style machine with 228mm x 279mm (9" x 11") working area. The Model CL is available with optional enhancement features for error-proofing and maximum efficiency.

SPIROL manufactures several different styles of Post Mould Installed Compression Limiters for installation into the plastic component after the molding process is complete. Installing Compression Limiters after the plastic has cooled typically results in the lowest total installed cost since there is no added cycle time associated with placing the Compression Limiters over core pins during the moulding process. Post mould installed Compression Limiters also eliminate any concern with damaging the mould due to improperly positioned components. SPIROL Standard Post Mould Compression Limiters include: The Series CL220 Split Seam, Series CL200 Split Seam - Slim Profile, Series CL350 Split Seam - Heavy Wall, Series CL400 Split Seam - Oval, Series CL6000, CL6100 & CL620 Aluminium and Series CL8000 & CL8100 Brass.
