As the name suggests, an extrusion puller pulls aluminum alloy extrusions along a track to a cooling table. When extrusions leave the press, they can be as hot as 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit! That’s why it’s essential that you have extrusion pullers to quickly and efficiently move extrusions to a secure cooling location.
Single vs. Dual Extrusion Pullers
Extrusion pullers are available in single or dual applications. The dual system consists of two pullers working together on separate tracks.
One of the benefits of the dual puller is that the doesn’t have to transfer from one puller to the other. Instead, we design dual pullers that bypass each other to increase your facility’s production and efficiency.
Dual extrusion pullers can achieve higher rates of production and minimal scrap when servicing today’s high speed, short cycle presses.
Feel free to ask us about the different types of pullers we offer. Belco Industries offers everything from lightweight cable-driven designs to heavy-duty chain-driven drives.
Here are some benefits of using extrusion pullers from Belco Industries.
Better Control of Extrusion Lengths
Different industries require different extrusion lengths. This is why it’s important that your facility has a flexible operational setup. In other words, you want to make sure that you have pullers that give you better control of extrusion lengths.
Having the right extrusion pullers will make much easier to accommodate orders from different clients and industries. Call our extrusion and finishing company to learn more!
Reduce Twisting and Turning
Quenching is essential after extruding. The only problem is that the process of cooling down heated aluminum alloy can twist and warp the extrusion. That’s why it’s important that you invest in high-quality extrusion pullers from Belco Industries.
Quenching locks in the elements and phases in the aluminum alloy’s microstructure. This helps you get the strength requirements you need from your extrusions. But our aluminum extrusion pullers reduce twisting and turning that can happen while extrusions cool.
Minimize Scrap and Surface Damage
There’s nothing worse than having surface damage on your aluminum alloy extrusions. After all, you can’t sell damaged extrusions. Fortunately, our team offers a solution!
Our pullers keep on the runout table for minimal scrap and surface damage. That way, you can reduce the amount of waste and increase production for your company. It’s a win-win situation! Call our team today to get started!
