Ball Transfers - Spring Loaded

Shears, presses and molding machines are just a few of the many applications where open loaded ball transfers can be used. A press for example may have spring loaded ball units set in the platen to facilitate the on and off loading ball units set in the platen to facilitate the on and off loading of the workpiece. When the press operates the springs compress and the ball units sink below the surface-leaving the workpiece on a firm base. When pressure is released, the ball units rise allowing the ball to roll, enabling the workpiece to be removed easily.
