Z.LYNX
Clever: Virtually autonomous production of twisted-in technical wire brushes
Z.LYNX
The missing lynx in your company
The Z.LYNX family of fully automatic high-performance machines for the production of twisted-in-wire brushes operates almost entirely by itself. The clever servo controls guarantee optimum process stability during alignment, advancing, twisting-in, and trimming. There's a right machine for every type of brush. This makes Z.LYNX the economically savvy solution – while, of course, offering the usual first-class ZAHORANSKY quality.
Benefits of the Z.LYNX
- filaments from spools or material boxes
- fully automated closed loop possible
- highly precise trimming with HSS steel
- contour cut with servo-controlled trimming unit
- automatic wire feeding and straightening station for higher speeds with fewer malfunctions
Flawless contours
The servo-controlled trimming unit offers flawless contour cuts. There are no limits to your imagination. And all operations are controlled by recipes through the control software, without sample parts.
Centring instead of trimming
With smaller brush diameters, a different process is used to center the filaments. Usually, this is done with a trimming process with an HSS profile trimmer. The Z.LYNX centers filaments with the centers filaments with half-pipe-shaped guide shells. This shortens cycle times and increases output. Moreover, it prevents the trimming machine from wearing, as the guide shells use a non-wear process.
Other models
- Z.LYNX 2 – machines with optimized output for twisted-in brushes with closed end, for smaller brushes. Output of finished via a slide.
- Z.LYNX 3 – universal machine to produce all kinds of twisted-in brushes, also with loop, for larger brush diameters. The brush part can be on either side, the open or closed end. The finished brushes are removed through an output conveyor.
Z.LYNX 3: Greater power for twisted-in-wire brushes
The fully automatic, high-performance Z.LYNX 3 boasts an output increase of up to 85 percent in the production of twisted-in-wire brushes.
- Fully automatic, no more manual operations required
- Greatest flexibility for various brush patterns and the quickest possible changeovers
- With the new ZMI 4.0 controls, the new and improved Z.LYNX 3 can be operated without requiring extensive training. The ZMI 4.0 additionally ensures even greater precision in controlling the mechanical components
KDE and KZA
KDE and KZA – semi-automated machines that produce twisted-in-wire brushes. The specialists for smaller series and frequent product changes; when automation doesn't pay. Optimal flexibility at the lowest-possible investment. Twisted-in, trimmed, ground. On request, also with quality control by camera, and with a plenty of auxiliary devices to prepare and feed-in the materials to be processed. The full package, but only semi-automated. Toned!
