FM200 - Adapter lower tool - Eyelets 12mm 16mm (M27xM18)

The FM200 - Lower Adapter - Eyelets 12mm - 16mm (M27xM18) is an interchangeable mounting component for installing lower dies in compatible semi-automatic eyelet machines. The adapter features an M27xM18 connection and is intended for tooling combinations within the specified 12 to 16mm eyelet range.

The lower adapter connects the lower die to the machine and supports controlled and stable tooling installation during the setting process.

Applications

This lower adapter is used with the FM25 and FM35 semi-automatic eyelet machines for processing eyelets in tarpaulins, banners, tent fabrics, protective covers and technical textile products. It is suitable for applications where lower dies with a compatible connection are installed and accurate tooling positioning is important.

What should you consider?

Check that the M27xM18 connection matches the machine and lower die used. Consider the eyelet type, corresponding washer and correct upper die. The stated 12 to 16mm range does not mean every eyelet within this range can be processed using the same die.

Processing and use

Install the lower adapter in its designated connection according to the machine instructions and attach the matching lower die. Check that the components are securely mounted and correctly aligned with the upper die. Perform a test installation and verify that the eyelet is evenly formed without damaging the material.

Matching products
