// Advantages are obvious
Customised solutions
The greatest advantage lies in the precise customisation to individual customer requirements, which means that these machines take into account not only technical specifications but also the special needs of the production process. At the same time, customised machines are usually characterised by their high flexibility, which allows them to be easily adapted to different production volumes and requirements. This flexibility proves invaluable, especially for companies that need to vary their production capacities according to demand or operate in a constantly changing market environment.
// Application example
Customised solutions
Removal automation
The special machine developed in this application example is used to recycle punching waste from electrical sheets in order to minimise the amount of waste.
The punching waste is automatically removed from a press and transported to a stack by a magnetic conveyor belt. The electrical sheets are aligned, fed into a stack and stacked
This ensures that the circular blanks/electrical sheets are prepared for further processing with clean edges.
Feed automation
In this application example, blanks and the individual segments are conveyed to a sanding system and deposited there sequentially.
Process: A lifting table lifts parts upwards with the help of spreading magnets. The spreading magnets ensure that the sheet metal parts are centred and pre-separated.
A suction spider then removes the parts, separates them using programmable rolling cycles and transports them to a downstream system. There, the parts are deposited in various positions.

Questions and answers
Normally, a tool change on a grooving press takes less than 10 minutes.
A grooving press produces rotor and stator laminations for electric motors and generators using the single grooving process.
The stamped metal sheets are assembled into packages and then wound or moulded and assembled into a motor or generator.
Slot punches are used to manufacture electrical laminations (stators and rotors) for electric motors.
A single groove is punched into a circular sheet using a punching tool.
The sheet is then fed through a feed device (dividing head) by one division – the punching process is repeated.
Depending on the pitch, between 30 and 100 punching operations are carried out per sheet until the finished sheet is produced. This takes place at a stroke rate of 600 to 1200 punching operations per minute.
The production of sheet metal using the single grooving process is considerably cheaper and more flexible compared to a mould with a complete cut.
As a rule, the grooving press is operated at 600 to 1200 strokes per minute. This depends on the size and complexity of the component.
We currently offer grooving punches in a range of 5 – 20 tonnes punching force.
Slot punching at the highest level and maximum precision and output. The patented design of the grooving press enables high rigidity and optimum conditions for good automation.
Thanks to the drive technology used, there are no more wearing parts on the grooving press.
We offer customised solutions for the mechanical and electrical modernisation of old grooving presses. In addition, existing grooving presses can be retrofitted with our automation concepts.
Depending on the size and degree of automation, the output of our systems is between four and ten sheets per minute.
It usually takes around 10 months from ordering to delivery of a grooving machine. We often have a demonstration machine in-house that is available at short notice.
The grooving machine has a modular design and is very easy to maintain, as the grooving machine no longer has any wearing parts.
Hagel Automation specialises in the design and construction of slotting machines and the entire automation process. Hagel Automation supplies efficient, modern and highly precise slotting machines.
The costs depend on the required punching force, the equipment and the degree of automation of the grooving press. We are able to prepare a quotation for any application at short notice.

Production of electrical sheets for motors and generators for wind power, hydropower and drive technology.
A single groove is punched into a circular sheet using a punching tool.
The sheet is then fed through a feed device (dividing head) by one division – the punching process is repeated.
Depending on the pitch, between 30 and 100 punching operations are carried out per sheet until the finished sheet is produced. This takes place at a stroke rate of 600 to 1200 punching operations per minute.
Currently, sheet metal with a diameter of 35 mm to 1300 mm is processed on grooving machines. The current trend is towards larger diameters of up to 1800 mm.
