Mechelonic Engineers Pvt. Ltd offers Stretch Former. Mechelonic Engineers Pvt. Ltd offers welding machines, engineering custom solutions, service backup and execution of turnkey projects. The Stretch Former machine is used for making 18 litres square containers from circular seam welded containers, with additional functions of making forming, side-stiffening and paneling vertical ribs.
Stretch Former basically consists of two parts:
The Die: It consists of an expanding mandrel operated by two built in hydraulic cylinders which forms circular can into the square form. This expanding mandrel has male projections for the purpose of paneling [ribbing] on its four sides. The machine is also fitted with four slides surrounding the expanding mandrel, which carry matching female grooves. These slides are hydraulically operated by four hydraulic cylinders. After the can is expanded into a square form, all the four slides come forward and press on the mandrel from all four sides giving paneling / ribbing on all four sides. Monogram / symbol embossing can also be combined with this operation [at extra cost].
The Power Pack: The power pack consists of a hydraulic pump, driven by a totally closed induction motor. The pump is capable of developing a pressure of 150 kg/sq. Cm. The pack is designed taking into account all hydraulic and service requirements. The entire system is of robust construction made from high quality material.
