FCS-R Rotary Flow-Coating Machines

General Description

The FCS is designed for use with all flow-coating applications. The FCS combines the rugged durability expected from Palmer equipment with the productivity dictated by today’s advanced molding systems. With automatic PLC controls available, the FCS.
 

Features

• Heavy steel fabrication ensures years of trouble-free operation without flexure or twisting of the primary frame.
• Rotation is accomplished with a heavy-duty hydraulic motor direct mounted to a high reduction gear box for smooth, speed controlled operation. Dual speed rotation is standard.
• Large diameter, dual bearing supports ensure total support of the rotating frame.
• Four-inch diameter clamp assembly guide rollers ensure that it does not flex.
• Full hydraulic clamping provides durable motion parts requiring minimal maintenance. Clamping is accomplished with dual five-inch bore heavy-duty series hydraulic cylinders.
• Design features heavy duty “Palmerveyor” for long life, easy service, and minimal preventative maintenance.
• Dual heavy-duty clamping jaws ensure that molds are secure prior to tilting.
• High volume diaphragm pump provides maximum pump life and requires little preventative maintenance.
• Wash basin constructed of 3/16” steel reinforced for durability. Basin and construction material can be customized to fit the application’s exact needs.
