Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to common questions about our Fully Automatic Profile Screwing Centers.

1. What is the core function of a profile screwing center in PVC production?

A profile screwing center automatically inserts and tightens screws into PVC profiles at predefined positions, reducing manual effort and errors. It ensures high consistency in hardware mounting across large volumes. These machines are often integrated with profile machining and cutting centers to form a continuous production line. With precise positioning and programmable parameters, they help maintain tight tolerances and uniform assembly quality.

The RS 225 Profile Screwing Center features dual fully automatic screwing axes that work simultaneously, enhancing throughput and reliability. Servo‑controlled positioning ensures 0.1 mm precision per screwing position. The machine supports loading up to 8 profiles and maintains a database of screwing parameters (up to 10,000 profiles). It also allows for remote diagnostics and is compatible with machining centers in an automated workflow.

The RS 235 Fully Automatic Screwing & Drilling Center combines double screwing and triple drilling operations in one unit to optimize cycle time. It can handle multi‑height screwing in two stages, improving speed for profiles with variable hardware requirements. It is fully compatible with automatic processing centers and offers servo precision at 0.1 mm accuracy. It also uses advanced axes systems and a data bank for profile‑specific parameter storage.
Yes, modern screwing centers support a wide range of profile geometries and hardware setups without the need for major retooling. Parameters such as screw positions, drilling patterns, and speeds are programmable and stored in the machine’s database. Shift‑overs between different window or door series can be done quickly via software, reducing downtime. This flexibility is especially important for factories producing diverse product lines.

Regular cleaning of screw feeding systems, sensor windows, and guide rails prevents dust or debris from influencing accuracy. Lubrication of moving parts, ball screws, and rack‑pinion mechanisms is essential to reduce wear. Periodic calibration of servo axes and position detection systems keeps tolerances tight. Checking pneumatic lines, seals, and air pressure ensures consistent screw insertion force. Finally, monitoring error logs and remote diagnostics helps preemptively resolve issues before breakdowns occur.
