Ohio Broach breaks boundaries with a spectrum of machine accessories

Various broaching accessories are available.

The Ohio Broach & Machine Company offers a range of industrial broaching abilities that surpasses those of any other manufacturer, from tool sharpening to machine building, making it a leading source of broaching services. On top of machines and tools, the company also supplies a variety of accessories for broaching machines, designed to satisfy specific user needs. This selection of optional equipment for broadening machine capabilities includes machine tables, platforms, clamping systems for holding work, and conveyors for chip removal.

Easier access for loading/unloading

The company offers various machine-table options, for example. These accessories all have cross keyways, which help with changing fixtures. A standard machine table is a platen type with a large, obstruction-free perimeter, but tip-back tables are also available. Machine tables allow operators to tilt the work-holding fixture to obtain better access with loading or unloading work pieces and then automatically tilt the table forward, to ensure that the position is appropriate for broaching.

Another option is the in-feed shuttle table, which enables multiple, repetitive broach cuts that allow the machine to continue to make passes until it reaches the depth that the user wants. All of the in-feed shuttle tables that Ohio Broach supplies come with tip-back capability.

Ohio Broach also provides upgrading options for applications that include manual-type work-holding fixture clamping. Among the examples of air-oil booster-type power sources available are electrical pressure switches and necessary tie-ins for electrical systems in machines. Another accessory from the company: a double-hydraulic power source for large-volume hydraulic cylinders and multi-cylinder tasks. The device can also power automatic fixture movements.

Also available from Ohio Broach are chip-removal conveyors for pit and floor-surface broaching equipment; examples include drag-link conveyors for handling non-ferrous chips, as well as magnetic ones for ferrous chips. These conveyors come with baffles and electrical tie-ins, and Ohio Broach also provides operator platforms with durable construction, structural tubing, and heavy-duty gratings.

With these great equipment accessories from the Ohio Broach team, customers meet their specific needs every time, in a way that leads to far more efficient and profitable broaching tasks.
