Promoted to an Industry Meeting
WAFIOS In-House Exhibition 2015
The WAFIOS in-house exhibitions have become a fixed date in the calendar for experts in the field
of forming technology and have established themselves as an industry platform. Also for this year's
event, which take place in Wuppertal from the 6th to the 9 th of May, WAFIOS once again promises
visitors from all around the world interesting presentations and innovative technologies
Finished Parts with no
Post-processing
One of the highlights will be
the SMR Forming Center.
The machine serves for the
production of very small parts,
M0.6 to M3 and can achieve
speeds of 400 parts per minute.
WAFIOS Umformtechnik has
developed a unique concept
with the SMR which combines
cold forming and post-processing operations – and that
without the need to re-load
the miniature parts. The
result: finished parts with no
post-processing whereby no
washing process is necessary
between the forming, sawing
and thread rolling. A rotor with
hydrostatic bearings with up
to 8 dies ensures the highest
precision.
Machine Exhibition and
Specialist Presentations
Furthermore, in addition to the
extensive display of machines
at the WAFIOS in-house
exhibition, the 2-die, 3-blow
HC5FT forming machine
with induction heating will be
presented, the world's fastest
machine of this type (up to a
maximum of 400 parts per
minute). Specialist presentations on current themes are
included in the supporting
programme. Guest speakers
and WAFIOS Umformtechnik
specialists provide information
about the latest trends and give
insights into the technologies
and backgrounds.

induction heating
THE HEATING OF
SPECIAL MATERIALS
BY INDUCTION
How does induction
heating work?
The induction heating of
the wire is essential in many
cases in order to be able to
guarantee the subsequent
forming of special materials.
Why induction heating?
In the following diagram the
effect of temperature on the
tensile strength of the material
is represented. The reduction
in the tensile strength with
increasing temperature can
be clearly seen. In this way
the forming forces can be so
reduced and cracks in the
material while forming can be
avoided. Therefore the
processing of special materials
(for example, Inconel, titanium
and stainless steel) is possible
on WAFIOS Umformtechnik
machines.

Inductor Coil
WAFIOS Umformtechnik, with
its many years of experience
in this field, has integrated this
technology in the area of hot
working (up to approx. 900°C)
and semi-hot working
(up to approx. 300°C) in its
KIESERLING and HILGELAND
brand forming machines.
The induction coil is located,
as shown in the illustration,
immediately before the cut-off
station to avoid heat losses.
An induction coil generates
an alternating magnetic field
and transfers the necessary
energy contactlessly to the
wire fed into it, through this
the wire heats up and can be
accordingly formed with lower
press force. The temperature
of the wire can be accurately
controlled via the control
technology.

Induction heating
for what?
With this integrable technology
for induction heating,
WAFIOS Umformtechnik is
opening up new perspectives
for various applications in
the industry. Examples of
applications can be found
with special materials, for
example, in sectors in the
automotive industry,
aeronautical and aerospace
engineering, electrical /
electronics industries and also
medical engineering. Many
well-known manufacturers
in these industry sectors use
WAFIOS Umformtechnik
forming machines with
induction heating all over the
world to form high-strength
materials at high speed.

Nail Machines
New machines for the nail industry
WAFIOS Umformtechnik Takes Over the
Nail Machine Programme of WAFIOS AG
In the future, in addition to the machines
from HILGELAND, KIESERLING, NUTAP
und MRP, the nail machine Series N, N 90,
NAILMASTER and the thread rolling
machines THREADMASTER and GW 92 will
be found under the umbrella of WAFIOS
Umformtechnik GmbH in Wuppertal.
The nail machines working on the single stroke
process round off the cold forming machine
programme of HILGELAND and KIESERLING
perfectly. WAFIOS Umformtechnik has many
years experience in the manufacture and
distribution of mechanical forming machines
for the production of screws and fasteners of
all types.
For this reason WAFIOS AG has decided to
transfer the complete nail machine programme
to WAFIOS Umformtechnik.
In the first step, sales, design, production,
procurement and assembly of the nail machine
programme was transferred on the 1.1.2015.
The transfer of the spare parts and service
business for the nail machines will follow on
the 1.7.2015 and the transfer will then be
completely finished.
Since January, 2015 Mr. Julian
Peinke has been the direct
contact person at WAFIOS
Umformtechnik GmbH for sales
of new machines for the nail
industry.
