TRIANGULAR HEMMING AND STAMPING APPARATUS

摘要

A triangular hemming and stamping apparatus includes a stationary base that mounts a lower die set. Three guide posts are triangularly positioned on the base and extend generally vertically from the base. An upper fixed superstructure is supported by the three guide posts and fixedly spaced from the base. An upper slidable structural member that mounts an upper die set is slidably mounted on the guide posts between the base and the superstructure. An actuator is mounted on the superstructure and connected to the upper slidable structural member within an area within the guide posts. The actuator is not connected to nor associated with the guide posts, and the actuator is operable to move the upper slidable structural member toward and away from the base to perform hemming and stamping on a workpiece.
