Grommet & Washer Machine
Model 83GW

The Model 83GW automatically feeds and sets grommets and washers in a single revolution of the machine. 83GW tooling pierces most plastic or cloth materials while simultaneously feeding the washer with the eyelet or grommet. The result is a strong, durable quality setting with reduced operator fatigue, a safer operation, and a fast return on investment. The 83GW is especially suited for lighter materials as it pierces a hole versus punching a clean hole. With the pierce, the extra material folds back and provides a larger foundation to set the grommet and washer against.

Advantages:

  • Increased Productivity: customers report increases in excess of 300% over conventional double revolution grommet machines
  • Stronger Settings: material is not cut out, but is clinched between the grommet and washer
  • Reduced Operator Fatigue: the operator simply positions the materials and cycles the machine
  • Increased Safety: the operator does not have to place fingers in the setting area to load the washer

Safety:

  • Completely guarded by wrap around A.B.S. plastic guarding
  • Each machine comes equipped with one set of setting tools, rear gauges, left and right side gauges as required. The machine is mounted on a welded steel stand requiring a 30” square floor space.

Specifications:

  • Frame: Cast iron; dimension: Height 24-1/2”; Length 23”; Width 12”
  • Throat Depth: 7-1/4” (center of Ram to Frame)
  • Stroke: 2-3/4”
  • Flywheel Speed: 180 RPM
  • Flywheel: 12-7/8” dia.
  • Dual ³V”Belt Drive
  • Clutch: Sliding Dog Type and Non-Repeat Device
  • Motor: 1140 RPM, 1/2 HP, 120 VAC
  • Electric: 115 VAC, 60HZ, 1 Phase
  • Weight: Net 300 lbs, crated 350 lbs

Grommet attaching Machinery
Model 92 Series

Features:
