YKK WPG 5041 PNEUMATIC M/C press
| Articles: |
The semi-automatic pneumatic press is designed for installing all types of buttons (Spring, S-Spring, FlexFix™, KNIPPER™), jeans buttons and rivets, eyelets, and other items. Parts are manually installed in the upper and lower dies.
The items can be attached to any type of fabric without readjusting the press, provided that the type and thickness of the fabric meet the parameters specified by YKK STOCKO FASTENERS.
The WPG 5041 LA model develops a maximum pressing force of 5000 N at a pressure of 6 bar. The pressure sensor head (automatic force control) ensures that the required installation force is reliably achieved in each work cycle.
To ensure operator safety in the press working area, a movable (active) finger protection system is provided.
Modern clothing, footwear, and accessory manufacturing requires high precision, repeatability, and speed. This is especially true when installing metal hardware, where any error can result in defective products. The YKK WPG 5041 Pneumatic press is designed as professional pneumatic equipment for the precise and reliable installation of hardware in mass and industrial production environments.
This press is used to install buttons, rivets, eyelets, and other YKK hardware components with maximum precision and consistent results.
Why a pneumatic press is more efficient than a mechanical one
Unlike manual and mechanical presses, a pneumatic system provides strictly controlled force. Pressure is applied evenly, without jerks or human error, which is especially important for large-volume work.
Using the YKK WPG 5041 Pneumatic allows you to:
- ensure consistent installation quality for each piece of hardware;
- reduce operator workload;
- speed up the production process;
- minimize defects;
- work with dense and multi-layer materials.
The pneumatic principle makes the press the optimal solution for professional use.
