Rockford
Manufacturing Group Inc. (RMG)
acquired Fastener Engineers in 2003.
Between the two companies we have been in
business for over 80 years and are the pioneers of the in-line wire
processing equipment. We have taken advantage of the merger of our companies
to combine the best technologies of both engineering groups to develop one
distinct brand of In-Line Wire Processing Solutions under the RMG
name.
We have developed new methods of high-speed
payoffs for use in front of our straighten and cut equipment. Our Vertical
Payoff Stand 4VPS16, for smaller diameter wire (.050 - .188) and
Variable Frequency Drive power assisted turntables, provide a solution for
inadequate payoffs which is one of the biggest problems with S&C. A poor
payoff can greatly reduce the production rate of the S&C machine, which is
why RMG continues developing new devices to solve some of these
problems.
We have developed a new Automatch
Prefeeder Uncoiler for the delivery of larger diameter wire and rod to the
production machine using speed control technology for continuous feed. This
improves blank length and volume requirements for todays high precision
cold heading machines by isolating the full weight of the coil from the wire
required for the stroke of the production machine. This technology is so
innovative we have US and International Patents Pending.
RMG
offers complete OEM support for all of Fastener Engineers
models including Tooling, Parts, Service and Technical
information.
