BEX Series--Dedicated Presses for Forming Metal Separators for Fuel Cells
The BEX Series delivers high-precision slot (channel) forming in thin sheets--with relative dimensional tolerances within a few microns--and the warpage suppression required to form metal separators.
- The press rigidity is approximately double that of our UL Series presses.
Bed deflection when forming in the center of the press has been reduced by approximately 50%, and frame elongation has been reduced by approximately 30%. - A zero-clearance slide gib system eliminates lateral shifting of the slide to achieve the high-precision perpendicularity and parallelism needed for stable high-precision forming.
- Though BEX presses have a 1-point design for accommodating loads at the center of the press, they also come with a wide area that accommodates multi-stage forming.
- The wide side opening allows progressive material feeders to be positioned close to the die.
