The continuous improvement model is a benefit to the worldwide customer base.
In addition to our dedication to launching new and innovative products for our customers, Sjogren Industries has consistently evaluated its existing product line with a focus on fostering innovation. This commitment to continuous improvement has led us to undertake a comprehensive redesign of our HD straighteners, aiming to assist our customers in significantly reducing operational costs while simultaneously boosting productivity.
The heavy-duty (HD) straighteners are engineered to handle large-diameter wire and rod, utilizing sleeve-style grooved rolls crafted from hardened tool steel for enhanced durability and performance. Our versatile HD line is capable of accommodating wire diameters up to 30mm or 1.18 inches, providing a robust solution for various industrial applications.
Recently, we have implemented several key refinements to our HD straighteners to further enhance their functionality and efficiency:
- The overall weight of the HD straightener line has been reduced by 20%, making them more manageable and easier to integrate into existing systems.
- The HD frame has been reimagined with a modular design, allowing for greater flexibility. The HD0515 and HD1020 models are designed to accept wire diameters ranging from 5-20mm, while the HD1525 and HD1030 models can accommodate wire sizes from 15-30mm by simply interchanging the rolls.
- Manufacturing processes have been optimized to create efficiencies, which in turn have led to reduced production costs and more competitive market pricing.
- All units have been upgraded to be easily adaptable to hydraulic quick-opening mechanisms, enhancing their operational convenience and speed.
The team of innovators at Sjogren understands that having the right tooling is crucial for eliminating costly downtime, extending the lifespan of customer equipment, and increasing overall operational efficiencies.
