VIOLI Srl has developed a range of
drawing machines for the processing
of metal profiles that includes
equipment for tubes, bars or wires
made of ferrous or non-ferrous
metals.
Top of the products is the TRI series,
a full range of hydraulic equipment
for the drawing of tubes or rods with
circular cross section, or complex
profile.
Technologically advanced thanks to
the use of prime selected
components and innovative design
solutions, the TRI draw benches are
fully PLC controlled for both working
phases and safety protection.
The speed of the traction is
adjustable and the use of the bench
is extremely simple by using a
joystick placed on the control panel
which allows the operator to easily
manage all the steps of the process.
Violi also offers a line of chain draw
benches, the TR series, designed for
the processing of bars and tubes
with a maximum diameter of 12mm.
The anchor pliers, with adjustable
jaws, is provided with a locking
system manually managed by the
operator; the return of the draw lift is
electrically controlled. The working
speed can be fixed to one or two
levels, or adjusted by inverter.
The range of products is completed
by a number of subsidiary equipment
such as tapering machines – APT
series for pipes and bars or AP series
for wires, manual or automatic spindle
unlocking systems and a compact kit
for hydraulic drawing named KTF10,
an extremely compact device for the
production of half-processed pipes or
rods ready to be finished. All Violi
machines comply with the applicable
international standards.

New TRI leads the way
❍ Part of the new range from Violi
Wiedenbach Apparatebau has
introduced a remote-control
functionality as a standard feature of
the CS/WP series printers.
The new Command Control System
(CCS) is a web-based supervision and
configuration platform that controls
printers remotely from any PC, tablet
or smartphone in any location and
without the need for a complicated PC
installation process.
The new software enables users to
control and monitor one or up to 100
printers and to obtain real-time
production information. As printer
warning and alarm messages can be
seen across the entire printer network
simultaneously, users can reduce
costly errors and downtime.
The system can also be used for quick
and error-free adjustment of printer
settings during product changeovers.
Printers located in hard-to-access
areas on the production line are easier
to monitor and control.
The CCS is now a standard feature of
all CS/WP series printers; machines
which have already been installed with
this function can be updated with the
latest software.
