SW575S
Automated PTCA Marker Band Swaging Equipment with PLC Control

The MSI SW575S Marker Band Swaging Equipment automatically positions and swages marker bands within tight manufacturing tolerances. Intended for high volume PTCA product manufacturing, the pick and place loading option allows for continuous, automated processing. The profile driven swagers include integrated PLC control system with touch screen interface for easy process development and quick product change over.

The SW575S laser sensor and servo actuator systems precisely position marker bands. The pick and place head delivers product from an auto-loading tray holding up to 100 PTCA pieces of product depending on product diameter. Rejected product is automatically set aside in a separate tray to allow for continuous processing. These swagers utilize the MSI Flexure Die plate to prevent unwanted particulate and reduce noise in the cleanroom.
