The Omec BC-5 nailing bench has been designed for assembling boxes using
staples, pins or little nails. The bench can be equipped with riveting machines that
are fitted onto an adjustable aluminium square section. On crates designed with
bottom only, operators perform the nailing procedure on the two sides of the
crate, then they can turn the workpiece and perform the nailing on the other two
sides. On crates designed with bottom and cover, operators shall repeat the above
operations for the nailing of the cover too. Workpieces are fed manually. Their
locking and nailing are controlled by a sensor detecting the presence of workpieces.
The crates height is adjusted by means of a specially designed handwheel that is
equipped with a position indicator. All adjustments are made very easily and
quickly. Controls are located on a PLC-equipped control panel that is built in the
machine base.
