Advanced Press System
Servo-Controlled Precision
The OTM-5000 utilizes servo-controlled technology to revolutionize neck and taper operations, offering significant advantages over traditional flywheel presses. Unlike flywheel systems, which rely on fixed stroke lengths and require mechanical overhauls for adjustments, the OTM-5000’s servo press ram allows precise control over stroke, timing, and force via the Weintek HMI. This flexibility enables on-the-fly adjustments, ensuring optimal forming for a wide range of calibers without downtime, while the part present die protection system safeguards against errors, enhancing reliability.
• Technology: Servo-driven ram with controllable motion paths
• Outcome: Superior precision and flexibility for neck and taper forming
• Comparison: Reduces setup time compared to flywheel presses, boosting productivity
Yaskawa Servo Drives
At the heart of the OTM-5000 are Yaskawa servo drives, renowned for nearly 50 years of reliability in high-tonnage applications. These drives integrate seamlessly with Allen Bradley PLCs and Weintek HMIs, providing real-time feedback, remote access, and precise motion control. The system supports various tooling designs, with quick adjustments made via the HMI, ensuring versatility for calibers from 300 AAC to 338 Lapua. Yaskawa’s proven durability ensures the press can withstand hundreds of millions of strokes, minimizing maintenance and maximizing uptime.
• Features: High-precision control, long-lasting servo motors, customizable tooling
• Benefit: Enhances operational efficiency with minimal maintenance
• Reliability: Yaskawa’s legacy ensures consistent performance in demanding environments
OTM-240A Feed System
The OTM-5000 is equipped with the OTM-240A Right Hand Feeder, a 24″ bowl feeder designed for seamless and efficient loading of brass casings. With tooling options for rapid caliber changes, the feeder supports high-speed production while maintaining precision. The system requires only one experienced operator for continuous operation, with a second operator recommended for safe and efficient coil changes, ensuring minimal interruptions in high-volume production runs.
• Mechanism: 24″ bowl feeder with anti-static systems for smooth material handling
• Outcome: Reduces operator intervention and supports rapid caliber transitions
• Applications: Ideal for high-volume brass casing production across multiple calibers
Robust Press Design
The OTM-5000 features a 45-ton press capacity with a 5-inch stroke and heavy-duty linear ram guides, ensuring stability and precision during high-force operations. An automatic oiler and coolant tank with sealed drain area maintain optimal performance and cleanliness, while the servo indexer enhances cycle efficiency. The press’s compact design and robust construction make it a durable, low-maintenance solution for demanding manufacturing environments.
• Components: 45-ton servo ram, coolant system, automatic lubrication
• Benefit: Ensures long-term reliability and consistent forming quality
• Environment: Sealed coolant system minimizes mess and maintenance
