Radiator Plastic Tank Crimping Machine High Precision Quick Die Change
Radiator Plastic Tank Crimping Machine High Precision Quick Die Change
Product Overview
This radiator plastic tank crimping machine is a specialized press designed for crimping and riveting plastic water tanks onto radiator core headers. Also known as a radiator header crimper or plastic tank assembly press, it delivers a consistent, leak-proof mechanical seal – critical for automotive radiator production lines. The machine works with aluminum and copper radiators used in cars, trucks, and construction equipment.
Key Advantages
-
High precision crimping for leak-proof sealing – Synchronized 6-cylinder pneumatic drive (or optional servo motor) applies uniform pressure around the entire tank flange, eliminating leak paths. This high precision crimping machine for radiator plastic tanks ensures reliable sealing even under thermal cycling.
-
Quick die change for multi-spec production – The modular tooling system enables a quick mold change in minutes, drastically reducing downtime when switching between different radiator sizes or tank shapes. Perfect for manufacturers running small batches or multiple SKUs.
-
Wide compatibility with radiator types – Handles core heights from 300–900 mm, widths 200–850 mm, and thicknesses 16–56 mm. A versatile customizable crimping press suitable for cars, SUVs, trucks, and construction machinery radiators.
-
Customizable control & automation – Standard pneumatic + mechanical positioning is reliable and cost-effective. Upgrade to servo-driven tank crimping with PLC and HMI touch screen for programmable force, position, and recipe storage – ideal for automated production lines.
-
Robust and safe design – Welded steel frame with baked enamel finish, protective safety enclosure, and intuitive control panel. Built for 24/7 industrial use.
