PVC Screen Slotting Machine
JK1012D
Double Head PVC Screen Slotting Machine
The JK1012D double head PVC screen slotting machine has been one of our most popular machines with companies that require high production of quality PVC well screens. This machine is very fast and easy to set up and operate.
JK1012D Details:
• Two 7 1/2 hp slotting motors
• Runs on 240 volt 3 phase (can be converted to 440/460 volt 3 phase) and 120 psi 10 cfm air supply
• Automatic pipe indexing unit is equipped with two high torque closed loop stepper gear motors
• Touch screen programming for all settings
Capabilities
Our customers describe the JK1012D as a fast production machine that is simple to set up and operate.
If you are going to be slotting a large volume of 6″ – 12″ sch80 pipe in 20′ lengths or less, we recommend a heavy duty slotting machine such as the JK4012HD. This machine has been designed to handle large quantities of longer, heavier PVC pipe.
• Slotting capability 1″ – 8″ PVC pipe in 20’ lengths or less; 10″ – 12″ sch40 in 10′ lengths or less
• 24′ indexer frame rail
• 15′ pipe support
• Safety enclosure around main slotting head assembly
• Machine can be programmed to slot odd number of rows using one slotting head.
Slotting Test Speed: 4” PVC pipe in 10’ length; 4 rows; .020” slots with 1/4” spacing = 3 minutes
Slotting time will vary depending on pipe size, pipe length, number of rows, and size of saws and spacing.
Automatic Pipe Indexer
The indexer has 3 primary functions
1. Clamp and hold pipe by the use of an expandable ID pipe holders located on the 1 1/4″ indexer shaft.
2. Turn pipe and accurately stop on the preset amount of rows to be cut on the pipe’s OD circumference.
3. Move pipe forward through machine to the next segment of slots to be cut.
The automatic pipe indexer is equipped with two high torque closed loop stepper gear motors. One of the stepper motor systems will
perform the operation of indexing the accurately for each row of slots and the other will move the indexer, pushing the pipe through the
machine for each segment of slots (indexer travel system)
ID Pipe Holders
The pipe is held securely by the expandable ID pipe holder which is mounted to the 1 1/4″ indexer drive shaft.
ID pipe holder size #2 for pipe sizes 3″-12″
3/16” rubber oring stock is wrapped around four arms and used to collapse holding arms when air cylinder moves cone forward.
ID pipe holder size #3 for holding 8″-12″ PVC pipe.
Touch Screen Programming
Touch Screen
The touch screen is located on the electrical box above the indexer. On each screen, detailed instructions are listed to assist you in the operation of the slotting machine. The pipe indexing and indexer travel distance will be monitored and set with a Panasonic GT touch screen. The touch screen will be used to set the amount of rows to be slotted, display the active row, set and display the travel distance per segment of slots, display cycle time for each screen, and have manual operation buttons to test each system and speed setting for both the indexer and travel system.
Slotting Saw Shaft Assembly
The JK1012D has two slotting shaft assemblies which increases your amount of production.
The amount of saw blades used on the shaft will vary depending upon the slot size, slot spacing and pipe size.
The slotting shaft assembly consists of the following parts:
1] Two Slotter Shafts: 17 1/2″ x 1″ x 3/4″ ends 3″ H Pulley (one-right hand threads for slotting motor 1 and one-left hand threads for slotting motor 2)
2] Two 3/4″ bearings and straps per shaft
3] 3″, 4″ or 5″ jeweler’s slotting saws with 1″ bore (varies depending on pipe and slot size)
4] Aluminum Spacers (varies depending on slot spacing and slot size)
5] Drive Belt 360H300
Slotting Saw Shafts & Aluminum Spacers
All slotting saw shafts are made out of C1144 stress proof steel on a precision CNC lathe by J&K Tool Company. Shafts are turned to the closest tolerance possible and turn true at high RPM.
Aluminum spacers are also made by J&K Tool Company on a precision CNC lathe. Spacers are machined to be perfectly parallel and flat.
If the spacers are not perfectly parallel and machined within a very close tolerance, the slotter shaft will bend.
Vacuum Fixtures
The JK1012D is equipped with down draft vacuum fixtures for better dust collection and will require connection to a dust collection system. J&K Tool can provide options for a collection system.
Safety Guards
The JK1012D is built with safety enclosures or safety guards as shown in photo.
