Müller FXP 100 Eccentric Press

The Müller FXP 100 is a mechanical eccentric press with a press force of 100 tons. It is suitable for use in the industrial series production of sheet metal parts. In the version described here, it is equipped with a pneumatic feed system that enables automated feeding.

General machine characteristics
• Type: Mechanical Eccentric Press
• Model: Müller FXP 100
• Construction: Column design with integrated drive and flywheel
• Drive system: Mechanical via flywheel with safety clutch and brake
• Control: Electromechanical, often with foot switch or two-hand operation

Pneumatic feed system

The pneumatic feed system is designed to feed and advance sheet metal strips or strips synchronously with the press stroke. This system is particularly necessary for continuous stamping processes in which large quantities are processed.

Components of pneumatic feed:
• Pneumatic feed unit: double-cycle gripper or linear feeder with adjustable feed length (typically 10–500 mm)
• Signal transmitter: connection to crankshaft or eccentric for synchronization
• Solenoid valve control: For forward and backward stroke of the feed cylinder
• Maintenance unit: With pressure reducer, water separator and lubricator
• Operating pressure: approx. 6 to 8 bar

Advantages
of pneumatic feed: • Increased production output through automated material feeding
• Precise timing and repeatable feed lengths
• Possibility of integration into fully automated production lines
• Reduction of manual intervention and sources of
error
Safety equipment
• Two-hand operation or foot pedal with safety lock
• Emergency stop switch
• Protective cladding in the tool area
• Light curtain (optional)
• UVV-tested
