Starting from a coil with a certain thickness and width, the finning machine wraps strip around a tube or a tubular heating element forming a fin around it. The pitch of the fins and the rotational speed of the tube can be set on the machine through an operator panel.
The finning machine is made up of these components:
The machine is supplied complete to wind one diameter of element with one strip width. For different diameters and widths, additional tooling is available.
The latest release of the finning machine for tube and heating elements offers a solution to the demand for increased productivity and safe working conditions, thanks to the following characteristics:
