Both versions use the same servo drive, PLC and touchscreen, so a mechanical-release servo roll feed is not a mechanical roller feeder; the main difference is how the rolls open for the die pilots. Pneumatic release uses a solenoid valve and air cylinder on the press timing signal and needs nothing mounted on the press slide. For general retrofit projects it is usually easier to install and adjust, and it also suits hydraulic presses, shearing machines and laser cutting lines. With mechanical release, an actuator mounted on the press slide opens the rolls, so release timing follows the stroke directly; choose it for high-speed, short-pitch stamping when the press structure and installation space allow. Send your press model, strokes per minute and feed pitch, and we will confirm the release type.

Yes, in many retrofit projects the feeder can synchronize with a traditional press by using a proximity switch, cam signal, or suitable release setup. Before confirmation, provide press photos, press model, stroke speed, and available installation space.

For high-tensile material, the line may need a straightener or an integrated straightener-feeder before feeding. For copper, mirror stainless steel, pre-painted coil, or film-protected material, roller surface treatment and pressure setting should be confirmed to reduce marking risk.

The current model page lists ±0.05 / 100 mm as a standard accuracy reference. Higher precision depends on material condition, feeder setup, pilot pin use, die condition, press synchronization, and commissioning quality.

Choose a zigzag feeder when the blank shape can be nested by shifting the strip laterally, especially for circular blanks, motor laminations, saw blades, cookware, and other parts where material utilization is a major cost factor.

Send material type, thickness range, width range, coil ID and OD, coil weight, feeding pitch, required speed, press model, line direction, layout restrictions, voltage, destination country, and photos or drawings of the product and existing press line.

In stamping, an NC feeder usually means a programmable servo roll feeder: it advances coil strip into the press die by a set length on each stroke. NC stands for numerical control: you enter the feed length, the feeding speed or a multi-stage program on the touchscreen, and the servo motor turns the feed rolls by that length. For this NC series, yes: buyers in Asia and the Middle East call it an NC feeder, NC roll feeder or NC feeder machine, and buyers in North America and Europe call the same machine a servo roll feed or servo roll feeder. When the die uses pilot pins, the pilot release opens the rolls for a moment so the pins can set the strip's final position.

The feed length (pitch) follows the die and the part size, so it usually changes when you change dies. Enter the new length on the touchscreen, anywhere from 0 to 9999 mm (393.7 in), together with the feeding speed or a multi-stage program; the length itself needs no mechanical adjustment. Before production, inch the strip through the die or run at low speed, confirm the actual feed length, roller pressure, guides and pilot release, then switch to automatic. Feed timing comes from the press signal (a cam or proximity switch); see the signal cam setup and commissioning guide for the full procedure.

There is no single list price for an NC servo feeder: we quote factory-direct prices for your configuration. The quotation depends mainly on feeding width, the thickness series (A, B, C or D), pneumatic or mechanical pilot release, options such as end-of-material detection, and whether the feeder is supplied alone or with a decoiler and straightener as a complete coil feed line. Voltage and destination country also affect the quotation. Send your material, feed pitch and press data for an itemized quote.

Yes. We build the NC series in our own factory and sell at factory prices. Standard models usually ship within 7 days, and each feeder comes with a 2-year warranty.
