Work cell integrates forming technologies for extra safety

Range of fittings, valves and couplings

(JPE) Yean Hern Enterprise Co Ltd, Taiwan, was established in 1982 in Kaohsiung, while Kun Shan Yean Hern Pipe Valve Co Ltd was established in 1998 in Kunshan, China. The company’s main products are instrument tube fittings (SUS 316/304, brass), and quick couplings (SUS-316/ SUS-304 carbon steel/copper). Yean Hern also provide instrument valves, with a range including ball, needle, check, and valve manifolds. The company also supply pressure reducing regulators. In addition to manufacturing, the company designs, installs and markets the products both domestically and overseas.

AddisonMckee, UK and USA, has developed an automated production efficiency cell, branded ProdiMate™, that integrates forming technologies, such as tube bending, endforming, press die and basic handling operations. It can undertake repetitive operations that require consistency and accuracy, and eliminate the need for manual involvement in production environments to improve operator safety. Mr Christian Rogiers, AddisonMckee’s director of global marketing, comments, “We have long been aware that certain repetitive functions within the tube manipulation environment are often better suited to automation than manual labour. By offering the ProdiMate™ production cell, we are enabling manufacturers to free up their operatives for more profitable use, while ensuring mundane processes are carried out consistently, time and time again.”
