A new system of air rings from Future Design Inc. allows for choices: a processor can start with a standard air ring and up- fit the same air ring at any time to a manual profiling air ring. Any time after that, the same air ring can be up-fitted to a fully automated profiling air ring.
Additionally, both the manual and fully automated system can be fitted to oscillating and/or rotating dies.
The electronic control network of the profiling air ring has been designed to work in conjunction with various OEM-supplied gauge-monitoring systems. Systems in the field have been accredited with achieving point-to-point gauge variations of +/-three per cent at rates of 24 lbs./inch of die circumference.
