Unplug the plug, be mobile!

29 March 2021

THE LATEST mobile products from Uniflex include hydraulic crimpers, that provide a high degree of precision, and a battery-driven hose-cutting machine.

Mobile 700 bar high-pressure unit:

The compact mobile hydraulic crimpers are available worldwide. With an innovative high-pressure unit, UNIFLEX now offers a practical accessory – a simple external drive. Using this easy-to-handle unit and an off-the-shelf screwdriver (drive torque: at least 25 NM), manually-operated workshop crimpers for 1’’ hoses (4SH/R15) can be driven hydraulically with low or high pressure.

The 'magical box' weighs only 8.5kg (incl. 1.8L of oil), and is 235mm long, 175mm wide, and 215mm high. Equipped with a shoulder or neck strap, the unit can be comfortably carried with both hands free to adjust the necessary settings with the cordless screwdriver (not included). The unit works with a maximum operating pressure of 700 bar and automatically switches at a pressure of 50 bar between high-pressure and low-pressure levels with two conveying speeds.

The low-pressure volume flow (fast stroke up to 50 bar) is 3.2L/min at 2000 rpm and the high-pressure volume flow (slow stroke with more than 50 bar) is 0.19L/min at 500 rpm. Moreover, the respective flow volumes can be doubled to 6.5 and 0.38L/min by optionally doubling the pump elements from three to six. The flow volumes depend on the standard rotational speed of the cordless screwdriver.

The mobile high-pressure unit is said to stand out due to its control elements: a pressure relief valve, an adjustable pressure limiting valve (PLV), a manometer measuring connection, a connection to the tool (actuator), and an oil inlet screw with a measuring stick. UNIFLEX believes its mobile hydraulic drive for manually-operated crimpers means a large portion of manual work in hose repair is a thing of the past.

The product comes with two-year manufacturer’s warranty.

The first battery-driven hose-cutting machine from UNIFLEX

The new battery-driven EM 1SB cutting machine from UNIFLEX cuts hydraulic and industrial hoses up to an outside diameter of SAE R12 1 ¼" like a hot knife through butter. Weighing only 7kg, the device is extremely compact, can be fixed quickly and guarantees clean cuts – thanks to the TM C high-quality cutting blade and the extra-long fixing bolts for the workpieces to be cut. The EM 1SB standard package comes with two exchangeable batteries for cutting at 5000 RPM with 90Wh – and a UNIFLEX manufacturer's warranty of two full years.

Because maximum precision is of utmost importance in the production and repair of hose assemblies, UNIFLEX also offers a wide range of accessories. Various cutting machines for hydraulic hoses of all size categories make work much easier. Independence in the precise cutting of smaller hoses with a diameter of 1¼" (outside diameter of 2") is now possible with the new battery-driven cutting machine EM 1SB from UNIFLEX.

Included in the standard package are two exchangeable batteries as well as one charger. It is recommended to use the UNIFLEX TU workbench. The compact cutting machine with a base of only 30 x 40cm can be fixed almost everywhere. It is important to have two fixing points and a stable stand.

To ensure that hoses with a bigger diameter can be cut without any problems, the EM 1SB operates with the easy-to-change TM C cutting blade from UNIFLEX as well as an equally proven baseplate with long, stable holding pins making the bending, clamping and fixing of the workpieces easy. Clean and precise cutting of the hoses is carried out within seconds.

Thanks to its battery-based technology and the variable charger, the EM 1SB from UNIFLEX is suitable for use all over the world.
