B.     Function of and Operation on Angle Iron Straightening Machine:

1.       2 Main Contributions from Angle Steel Straightening Machine:

1)       Flattening longitudinal body of Angle Steels: This is its major using purpose;

2)       Cleaning Surface: By means of high speed revolution of straightening rollers which squeeze surface of Angle Steels in heavy force, Angle Bar Straightening Machine also helps removing foreign particles/ Dirts/ Rust layer accumulated on surface of L steels;

2.       Effect: Through straightening, ideal surface roughness/ flatness/ gloss can be obtained, to ensure working parts reaching installation accuracy;

3.       A piece of L200x200x16mm large Angle Steel was being straightened and cleaned out of Wuxi JACK ASM200 Rolled Angle Straightening Machine: (Fig.3)

4.       Operating on Angle Iron Straightening Machine:

1)       Nature: Angle Steel Straightening Machine is simple and convenient to operate, safe and reliable in performance, and high in production efficiency;

2)       Workpiece Loading in and Out: There are input and output conveyors, distributed at inlet and outlet side of the Angle Bar Straightening Machine working frame;

3)       Management: This is accomplished with operating pendant and panel of the Angle Steel Straightening Machine;

4)       Input and output conveyors of Wuxi JACK L Steel Straightening Machine: (Fig.4)

5)       Operating pendant of Wuxi JACK exported to Russia Angle Steel Straightening Machine: (Fig.5)

C.    Working Principle of Angle Bar Straightening Machine:

1.       Consecutive Straightening with Rollers in Angle Steel Straightening Machine:

1)       Theory: ASM series Angle Bar Straightening Machine utilizes up and down 2 rows of straightening rollers as its center device, which forms a longitudinal squeezing cavity for Angle Steels to pass through;

2)       Working Unit: These straightening rollers are enclosed into a half-closed frame, which forms major body of the Angle Steel Straightening Machine;

3)       The vertical movement of straightening rollersare driven with manual turning in light to medium duty (ASM63/ ASM100 /ASM130), and motor in heavy duty (ASM160/ASM200) L Steel Straightening Machine;

4)       Straightening main body of Wuxi JACK ASM200 heavy duty large Angle Steel Straightening Machine: (Fig.6)

2.       Straightening Accuracy Management in Rolled Angle Straightening Machine:

1)       Initiate: After workpiece is clamped into center of the active and driving rotating center of Angle Steel Straightening Machine, straightening rollers are driven into rotation;

2)       Downward Stroke Control: Meanwhile, measuring device connected to Angle Iron Straightening Machine and movable support detects total runout (TIR) of workpiece surface;

3)       Measurement ruler of every straightening roller, in Wuxi JACK L Steel Straightening Machine: (Fig.7)

D.    Technical Features of L Steel Straightening Machine:

1.      General Points: Angle Steel Straightening Machine adopts strict heat treatment and precise machining and on its core units, and “simple” structure on its mechanical body, making sure both high standard stable performance level/ Convenient operation and maintenance, together with stable and reliable work;

2.       Mechanical System: Angle Steel Straightening Machine adopts high strength carbon steel plate welding mechanism, which has small size and good rigidity;

3.       Durable Straightening Rollers: Rolled Angle Straightening Machine adopts 35 Molybdenum as material of its straightening rollers, which have same service life as the machine itself:

4.       Adjustment on Straightening Rollers Downward Stroke in L Steel Straightening Machine:

1)       This is realized with either worm gear in light to medium duty (ASM63/ASM100/ ASM130);

2)       Or motor in heavy duty (ASM160/ ASM200) Angle Bar Straightening Machine, which are installed on top surface of mechanical main frame:

E.     Wuxi JACK Leading Edges on Angle Iron Straightening Machine:

We have 3 major unique owned strong points in our Angle Steel Straightening Machine:

1.       Updated 5 Top 4 Bottom Straightening Rollers for Better Effect from Angle Steel Straightening Machine:

1)       Traditionally, Angle Steel Straightening Machine adopts structure of 4 top 5 bottom Straightening Rollers arrangement in its straightening cavity. This is easy to be produced, but has problem of Angle Steels both ends up-bend after straightening;

2)       To solve this hidden trouble, Wuxi JACK engineering team upgrade design on core unit of the Angle Steel Straightening Machine, delivering best level straightening effect:

2.       Years of Accumulation on Empirical Data for Running L Steel Straightening Machine:

1)       In manual book of each model Angle Steel Straightening Machine, we give clear and detailed rule of thumb, on recommended downward stroke, for each piece of straightening roller;

2)       Under each thickness of Angle Steels;

3.       Powerful Motor Drive in Large Rolled Angle Straightening Machine:

1)       For large model ASM160 and ASM200 Angle Steel Straightening Machine, conventional manual turning on handwheels can not attain sufficient and ideal straightening effect, even operated by male operator;

2)       To relieve operators from hard work and guarantee straightening effect, we use motor drive in ASM160 and ASM200 large Angle Steel Straightening Machine: (Fig.11)

F.     Summary on Wuxi JACK Angle Steel Straightening Machine:
