Nilson' Four Slides are designed for automatic production of parts from round wire up to 3/8" in diameter and flat stock to 2-1/2" in width. Individual, cam-actuated forming slides allow complex forming operations to be completed with relative ease. Four Slides can also be arranged for welding, chamfering, tapping, coining, heading and assembly applications, eliminating secondary operations. Four Slides provide added economy by eliminating a carrier strip, utilizing material that is the exact width of the finished part.

Feed Mechanism:
The standard cam-actuated, positive grip feed mechanisms are extremely accurate and reliable. Repeatability is insured by solid-mounted, adjustable feed stops and independent stock check units. Feed lengths of up to 32" are available, and both 90° and 180° feed cycles are possible on most models.

Press Capabilities:
Nilson Four Slide presses operate like conventional, eccentric-driven punch presses. Available in capacities to 75 tons, these self-contained units are mounted into the cast iron machine bed and permit use of commercial die sets where applicable. Sufficient bed space is available on some models to mount an additional press head.

Forming Area:
Nilson Four Slide forming areas are open and accessible. The individual, cam-operated forming slides result in an economical system to replace intricate camming necessary on other machines that utilize progressive die tooling. To reduce machine down time, the press section for blanking is independent from the forming tools. When making an adjustment to one section, the other need not be disturbed. Finished parts are ejected from the forming area using a positive stripper motion.

The Nilson 700 Series Four Slide machines are designed for automatic production of parts from round wire up to 1/8" diameter and flat stock to 1-1/2" wide. Press capacities range from 1/3 ton to 25 tons. Ample bed space is available to add additional press heads for complex die requirements prior to forming. These camactuated presses are laterally adjustable to allow optimum positioning relative to the forming area. The press section is independent from the forming area, so when making an adjustment to one section, the other need not be disturbed.
The rigid cast iron machine beds are designed for high-speed production and are machined on CNC equipment to insure interchangeability of subassemblies and attachments.

The standard cam-actuated, positive grip feed mechanisms are extremely accurate and reliable. Repeatability is insured by solid-mounted, adjustable feed stops and independent stock check units. Feed lengths of up to 8" are available, and both 90° and 180° feed cycles are possible on most models.

A wide range of standard accessories are available to increase the versatility of the 700 Series Four Slides. Split forming slides, form lifter, heavy duty press, minimum pitch feed, rear cutoff, and a rear auxiliary slide are some of the attachments available to enhance the production capabilities.
