With 60 years fineblanking experience, UTIL processes a variety of steel grades including 8-mm thick high-tensile CRS. COE’s Fineblanking Edition HD straightener with coil reel, HD hold-down arm and hands-free threading, provides leveler quality at straightener cost. Addressing coil set and crossbow issues, this equipment helps UTIL achieve the flatness and tolerances (.003" TIR/sq. ft.) required to fineblank near-net-shape blanked braking components.

Noxon Automation GmbH+Co. KG, a manufac- turer of automatic winding machines, has opened its new sales and support office in Morrisville, NC, near Raleigh. The new office pro- vides sales, technical serv- ice, support and training for customers in North America and Mexico.
The compact design of the Intra Trans means that it needs only the same space as a progressive die, making it ideal for retrofitting and reducing the per-unit cost of existing progressive-die presses. Use the transfer system on presses with a maximum bed size of 19 by 122 in.
