Bending and welding technologies

Specialized in the construction of machines for deformation of sheet metal and profiles, Imcar is located in Concorezzo, close to Milan and near to the main communication ways

Over the years, Imcar has always been attentive to the needs of its customers and of the worldwide market, updating and increasing its models of machines proposing always up to date solutions. Along with the manufacture of tanks through Vertical Technological Installations, which let produce tanks in vertical inside the factory or in the field according to customer necessities and for several applications: food and beverage (wine, milk, beer, fruit juice…), petrochemical industry, pharmaceutics, etc. Installations that let manufacture tanks from coils or sheets, guaranteeing completeness of all processes: bending, cutting and welding, achieving an excellent product, Imcar has developed the production of machines for dishing and flanging dome ends too.

Presses with manipulators

The line consists of multiple machines, among which there are presses with fixed portal up to 500 tons thrust (on request even machines of higher capacity can be produced). Thanks to the solid construction, one of the characteristics of these machines is their reliability and ability to withstand hard works. Imcar presses combined with manipulators, always of Imcar production, can be used to form dished heads. One of the strengths of Imcar presses together with the manipulator is the ease of managing the machine by a single mobile control desk and controls reduced to the essentials for the management of the press and the manipulator, operations that are performed and controlled by just one operator. The manipulator performs all movements in synchronism with the cylinder of the press. These movements can be simultaneous or single and their logic sequence determines a cycle for the execution of the dished ends, starting from discs of metal sheets. Some innovative technical solutions such as the particular construction of the main pushing cylinder that increases the speed of the working cycles, decreasing the production time in comparison to the traditional presses.

Flanging machines

In addition to the press and manipulator, to complete the production process of dished ends, Imcar increased the production of flanging machines adding some models dedicated only to the dished head flanging with radii up to 300 mm and thicknesses up to 30 mm (on request even machines of higher capacity can be produced). For flanging machine models up to 8 mm thickness, there is also the possibility to cut the discs to be subsequently flanged, while for models with radii of edges over 70 mm and thickness exceeding 8 mm our machines can only flange. Flanging machines are always fully hydraulic and have the capacity to work flat sheets, dish heads already formed and also conical ends. The operator can follow step-by-step the working process with the regulation of movements from one control desk by adjusting pressure potentiometers and displaying all the signals on the touch operation panel. On request, flanging machine can be made for the forming of hot dished heads. All machines are entirely designed and manufactured at Imcar facility with materials and components from the best brands, designed to support heavy duty cycles with guaranteed performance.
