PIN INSTALLATION TECHNOLOGY
Model PR
Semi-Automatic Pin Inserter
This exceptionally versatile, vertical installation machine is ideally suited
for moderate to high production for applications requiring up to 300 lbs of
installation force. A retractable pin insertion head, mounted on a shaft/linear
bearing arrangement, moves up and down for ease of loading and unloading
of the components to be assembled. The machine’s insertion bushing is
positioned close to the part for smooth, trouble free installation.
The orientation head transfers the pin from the feeding position to the
installation position, and also functions as a selector preventing longer
or shorter pins from being installed. A two-position trap door allows
easy clear-out of the feed tube without the need for tools.

Options such as rotary index tables,
pin sensing, force monitoring, and
drilling and pinning combinations can
be added for enhanced productivity and
heightened error-proofing.
Applications requiring higher
insertion forces would require a
SPIROL Model CR machine.
