Since 1972, SERAPID has been developing equipment to move heavy loads and has also specialised itself in quick die changing. It was the first application in which rigid chain technology proved its effectiveness and reliability. SERAPID rigid chains are used on all types of die transfer equipment from fork lifts to automated rail carts.
GPO Truck types
To cater for the diversity of press environments, SERAPID proposes different types of die-carrying stackers. The smallest handles a 500 kg load, the biggest a 20 tonne load and beyond this weight on demand. All the stackers use lifting mast technology except for the biggest model, which uses a scissor mechanism that supports the load at the centre of gravity. This also makes it possible to handle heavy wide loads.
To further shorten changeover times, we have developed a double
truck concept. This type of stacker allows you to load the die for the next campaign on one of the tables while leaving the other free for the die to be removed. There is no time lost in transit in the aisles. Of course, this solution is only possible for certain die heights at suitable die drop-off heights.
Thanks to Rigid Chain Technology (RCT), SERAPID makes eco-friendly systems that replaces hydraulics with a compact, simple and reliable technology.
