Use of couplings in rotary presses
Since 1960 Stucchi designs and fabricates
quick couplings and other solutions to fulfil the demands of sectors very
different among each other, also adapting to the needs of the international
market.
Our products excel under extreme
application conditions, keeping
ideal performance also in oil exploration platforms, in civil constructions
sites and in the case of other heavy-duty works.
But this does not mean that our solutions
are intended only for this purpose.
The
Stucchi quick couplings are used in many different machines employed in the
industrial, productive and manufacturing sectors,
as for example rotary presses.
The hydraulic systems of these machines
have made possible to provide these presses with the necessary power to perform
their tasks, whether to print sheets as in the case of publishing, or to remove
grease from leather in tanneries.
In these sectors, it is fundamental to
guarantee the continuity of the operations, keeping suitable production rhythms
to meet the market requirements, and this is only possible if the machinery is efficient, operates correctly and allows the
execution of interventions for maintenance or component replacement in a quick
and safe manner.
Such
requirements are fulfilled by the Stucchi quick couplings that result from 60
years of experience in the sector and from innovations in their design.
The flagship of our products is the flat face locking system that offers
many advantages.
In the first place, a flat surface is easier and quicker to clean with respect to other
configurations: this makes the maintenance of the couplings easier,
ensuring their service life along the time and preventing the internal part of
the circuit from being contaminated by accumulated dirt.
Additionally, the quantity of air (and of other contaminants in general) that penetrates during this process is
negligible, thus avoiding the risk of poor performance or machinery
malfunctioning.
On the other hand, in the uncoupling phase, the design of the valves keep the loss of
fluid to a minimum, with a positive impact on the safety of work stations
and in the preservation of the environment as well, avoiding the dispersion of
pollutants.
The
coupling and uncoupling operations are carried out quickly, without the need
for tools: also
guaranteeing a tight coupling, because also under pressure no leaks are noticed
and the loss of pressure is also kept to a minimum, ensuring ideal
performance and safety levels, both environmental and human.
Another outstanding point of the Stucchi
quick couplings is their versatility: they
are available with many different threads that are compatible with several
types of flexible tubes, and can be customised with superficial treatments or
gaskets that improve their resistance to specific environment conditions
