Ball Manufacturing

Mechanical feed for ball machines are suitably designed and built to obtain a continuous production of balls, starting from tube or strip. The cam system equipped in the machine makes the processing completely automatic and fast to ensures high productivity with unmatched reliability. The machine is equipped with specific registers for the change and the set-up of the tool which make this operation quick and easy. On each point of wear is installed a forced lubrication and there are fixed and mobile protections for the operator’s safety. On these models the feed of the tube or strip is mechanical and is made through the cam system, which makes a step for each beat of the mould.

The ball machine family with mechanical feed includes the FB5 model, for the production of loose balls, the FB5-C model for the production of ball chain strip and elastic ball chain and the FB5-R for the production of ROSARIO chain with balls mounted on the chain with different distances.

Pneumatic ball feed machines differ from the others for the type of feed of the tube or strip which takes place thanks to a pneumatic piston. This feature allows to adjusted it so as to make more beats of the mould (up to 6) on the same point before advancing and can therefore produce balls of larger size or particularly complex shapes, such as elongated ovals and barrels with sharp edges.

We were the first to produce a rolling ball machine. It has been conceived in order to give aperfectly uniform surface to the balls obtained from the tube by means of the rolling between two grooved discs. By insisting on the rolling, you can also obtain a notable reduction of the outer diameter of the balls and of the holes diameter, which can also be completely closed.
