DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE OF HYDRAULIC PRESS MACHINE FOR BAFFLE STUFFING

Mechanical Engineering

Hydraulic machine for baffle stuffing may be a vertical stuffing machine for inserting single baffles or complete baffle assemblies into a pre-formed muffler shell. Heads are hydraulically powered and are adjustable for loading position, stuffing position and stuffing speed. The shell clamps drop by design for quick change over.The operator manually loads the baffles or baffle assemblies onto each of the ram tools and cargo the muffler shell into the loading station on the walking beam. When the cycle is activated, the muffler shell is transferred into the stuffing station by the integral walking beam where the shell is gripped by the integral walking beam where the shell is gripped by the shell clamps then the baffles are inserted into the shell by the ram heads. When the stuffing operation is complete, the stuffed shell is returned to the operatorAn optional extended walking beam transfer system is out there to transfer shells through the stuffing operation for integration into automatic lines.
