The the output-per-minute rate of the ENKOnail+ series is the highest in the market, without affecting the production stability. The dimension range is as wide as ø1.8-4.2mm (0.071" to 0.165") x nail lengths 32-130mm (1¼" to 51/8"). The machines incorporate a compact, space-saving design and a user-friendly PLC control system with touch screen operator interface, which is easy to navigate and allows quick setup of nail parameters. Tooling changeovers and maintenance routines are easy to carry out owing to the user-friendly open-door machine design. At the same time, Enkotec’s machine concept allows the implementation of an environ- ment-friendly production with a low noise level, small energy consumption and an oil-free manufacturing process, eliminating the need for subsequent nail tumbling.

This year Enkotec will launch an upgrade of the complete ENKOnail+ high-capacity nail machine series. The upgrade includes many advantages, including: disco variator replaced by robust and maintenance-free servomotor drive; more user-friendly software; improved system for insertion timing with easy and quick adjustment; larger eight-groove feed rollers with improved lifetime; pedal for manual drive of machine; exhaust air connections allowing efficient evacuation of dust; improved cooling of machine due to powerful extraction of air; electrical cabinet rubber damping supports to reduce vibration; and a box for nibs inside the machine. Enkotec nail machines are based on a rotary forming principle, allowing wire feeding, wire cutting and head forming to take place in one continuous process of rotating movements, and offering the possibility of unmanned production.
