Strip-Lok Joiner

Features

  • Portable strip-joining machine driven by compressed air.
  • The main use for Strip-LOK™ joiners is repairing strip tear-off situations on modern steel strip processing lines such as continuous galvanizing and paint coil coating lines.
  • Two models available to suit most production facilities.
  • Designed for use with aluminum or steel substrates, this is the best advance in economical, efficient, and effective strip joining equipment.
  • Repeatable, strong connections can be achieved with a total sheet thickness of up to 1.8mm.
  • The operation does not require any consumables other than the two pieces of the strip to be joined.
  • No blank is produced.
  • CE Certified

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION
The joint is achieved by mechanically punching a square hole through the sheets to be joined and folding the flared strip back onto itself.
Apart from requiring an external compressed air source, the STRIP-LOK™ Joiner is fully self-contained. The STRIPLOK™ Joiner is activated as soon as the trigger is pressed, and an automatic cycle of punching and flattening the two layers of metal strip will then commence. The joining cycle will immediately stop as soon as the trigger is released.

 

JOINT STRENGTH
The strength of each join depends upon the gauge and properties of the metal being connected. As a general rule, 20 punches on each side of .4mm soft iron sheets provide a tensile force of approximately 25kN (5620 lbf).

                                               

 

LONG-REACH HEAVY GAUGE STRIP-LOK JOINER
Designed for wide strips, the LRHG Model has a reach of 300mm from the strip edge. Individual joints across the entire strip width are unnecessary. A reasonable overlap region of 700 mm or more creates considerable stability in a joint of two overlapping sheets. This unit can be used to join strip widths up to 1500mm.

 

LONG-REACH HEAVY GAUGE LOW-PRESSURE STRIP-LOK JOINER (LP)
The LP designation signifies that this model is designed for use in plants where achieving higher line air pressure is problematic. The LP model offers the same performance as the standard unit. However, it only requires 450 kPa of air pressure to achieve the same capacity for joining the thicker/harder materials, which the standard unit would require up to 760 kPa to achieve.

 

SPECIFICATIONS

Air Supply
Air supply pressure should be between 600kPa and 760kPa (85 – 110 PSI) for the standard unit and between 350 and 500 (50-60psi) for the LP models, filtered, dry, and lubricated. A minimum supply pressure of 700kPa (100 PSI) for the standard model 380 kPa (55psi) for the LP Model is recommended to obtain the capacities listed below.

 

Metal Limits
As the supply air pressure increases, so does the STRIP-LOKTM Joiner’s capacity to join thicker sheets. As a general rule, the following specifications apply to the two models:
