Lockformer Dual Head Gore-Locker

Lockformer Dual Head Gore-Locker

The Lockformer Dual Head Gore-Locker was designed for the production of HVAC round duct elbows, reducers, end-caps, and off-sets. Operator friendly, this machine also provides the power to fabricate quality standing seam fittings in-house in a single-machine platform with minimal power and floor space. On a single machine platform, the Lockformer Dual Head Gore-Locker offers the ability to flange/swage on one end, while simultaneously closing the seam at the other end. It also allows operators to modify controls when flanging/swaging, providing complete control of production speeds. After closing on the second station and creating a standing seam, the Lockformer Dual Head Gore-Locker delivers an airtight seal, eliminating the need for sealing or painting. Using minimal power and floor space, it also handles a variety of materials and thicknesses – up to 16 gauge (1.5mm) – to produce standing rib diameters from 4" to 60" (100 1500mm) with included tooling and can produce standing rib diameters from 4" and 50"- 60" with additional tooling. Added features of pneumatic-activated support rollers and a stronger closing station make the Lockformer Dual Head Gore-Locker safer and easier for the operator to remove parts.
