Power Driven Turks Head
• Available in both plain and universal type roll configurations.
• Easy roll change. • Compact design- less floor space
required. • Power screw adjustment
available. • No pull through device needed-
reduces scrap.
Efficient Production of Precision Shaped Wire with Minimum Scrap. For over 100 years, Fenn has been a leader in providing quality metal forming solutions across the globe. The Turks Head is a metal forming machine that can be compared to an adjustable draw die but is actually infinitely adjustable within its limiting dimensions. The Turks Head operates on the Rolling Mill principle and imparts the same qualities to the metal as the Rolling Mill does, namely, superior finish, accurate size and shape, and improved grain structure of the metal. The Turks Head differs from a rolling mill in the number and arrangement of rolls. The Turks Head utilizes two pairs of rolls, one pair is arranged horizontally, while the other is arranged vertically. Today, Fenn offers standard pull through models, as well as our redesigned Power Driven models. With Power Driven Turks Head, the need for a capstan is eliminated, saving space and precious material. Rolls are easily removed and re-inserted for maintenance. www.fenn-torin.com [email protected] +1 860.259.6600
Advantages:
Easy roll change system
Complex wire shapes made easy.
As a long time, proven producer of Turks Heads, Fenn is proud to announce its latest series of Power Driven Turks Heads. Fenn’s Power Driven Turks Heads produce the same quality results as standard Turks Heads, but feature self-driven rolls. Universal type Turks Heads are available in the power-driven roll format, eliminating the need for a pull-through device, and reducing the total floor space requirement. In addition, the easy roll change system saves time, and helps ensure the line can return to production as quickly as possible. Finally, for those clients who process high value materials such as precious metals, the Power Driven Turks Head design inherently produces minimum scrap, reducing your manufacturing costs. Contact Fenn today to learn more about how Fenn’s Power Driven Turks Heads can help you reach your production goals and improve your business!

the fly, automatic adjustment of free length.• Torsion (5th) Axis- Servo controlled torsion axis provides the capability to feed straight lengths of
wire for the creation of torsion legs or magazine springs, or other wire forms. Includes torsion tool holders and a complete set of torsion tooling
• Lateral Coiling Point (6th Axis)- Servo control provides lateral movement of the coiling point motion (in & out of machine face) for on the fly control of initial tension and the production of complex wire forms
• Retractable Bending Arbor- Provides a bending anvil for use with lateral coiling point when performing more complex bends such as extension spring ends
• Laser Torsion Probe- The laser probe provides precise feedback of spring geometry to the FZ control system, enabling the spring maker to control critical dimensions such as the angular clocking of torsion legs and extension hooks
• Part Handling Devices- Such as dump troughs, conveyor belts, ejection devices • Wire Straighteners- High quality 2 plane wire straightener that eliminates cast in the wire resulting
in higher quality springs • Customer Configurable Programmable Inputs/Outputs- enables the connection of secondary
inline equipment• End of Wire Sensor-
This sensor signals the operator when the wire has run out, or will shut the machine down for lights out production
• Tool Breakage Sensor-In the unlikely event that a tool breaks, or something malfunctions in the set up, this sensor will stop the machine, preventing further damage
Discover the Right Size Machine For Your Application!

Retrofit Program for W Series Mechanical CoilersFENN’s Electrical Retrofit program provides unmatched value: our highly knowledgeable, experienced engineers and factory technicians enable FENN to deliver retrofitted equipment at a fraction of the cost of a new machine. Let us help you maximize the potential and output of your mechanical Torin Spring coiler with our CNC technology, all backed by our 1 year retrofit warranty! Retrofit benefits include:• Precise, variable speed servo control of feed and cam shaft independently, allows for cam shaft
reversals and eliminates need to change gears or adjust feed crank gears, clutches and brake. • Variable speed and position control of the cam shaft enables greater flexibility when making
complex springs such as multiple diameter changes. This also enables you to expedite set up by adjusting the timing of the cam shaft via offsets in the spring program rather than re-clocking the cams mechanically.
• Unlimited accurate feed length provided by precise servo control- without change gears• Integrated probe interface enables precise clocking of springs• Retrofitted machines become simplified with fewer mechanical parts that need future
replacement. Clutches, brakes and feed crank gears are all eliminated• Valuable mechanical parts that become obsolete in the retrofit process are crated and shipped
back to you for use on other machines, or disposed of at your discretion• High quality OEM parts keep your Torin machine running at optimum performance• Save time and labor when you reduce set up time with modern Torin programming

“The efficiencies gained by reduced setup time, increased throughput, and significantly reduced scrap rate while holding extremely tight tolerances was immediately realized through a complete statistical analysis. The machine paid for itself within months. Success with our first Torin “Z” CNC led Springfield Spring to purchase another “Z” CNC coiler, followed by three more of the latest model, the Torin FZ Series. Our five newest Torin spring coilers replaced all [40] of our mechanicals, freeing up substantial space for new business endeavors. Fenn not only produces a top-notch machine but their sales, service, applications, and technical professionals are second to none. Fenn acts and responds like a business partner, not your traditional machine “dealer”. Springfield Spring continues to look forward to building our business with the help of Torin Spring Coilers for years to come.”

Keeping it Made in America
FENN was founded in Hartford, Connecticut in 1900. Over the years, FENN has produced a wide variety of metal forming equipment, and during WWII was one of the first companies in the country to convert its regular operations to 100% war production, producing tank and airplane components, gun parts and fire control apparatuses. Today, FENN focuses on its expertise in metal forming machinery, but proudly continues the tradition of supporting American manufacturing and jobs; both designing and building every machine at our headquarters in Connecticut, USA.
115-007V0916www.fenn-torin.com
For over 100 years, FENN has been the leader in providing high quality swaging equipment for a variety of industries across the globe. Swaging is metal forming without cutting chips for reducing wire, tube or rod. It is a special type of forging in which metal is formed by rapid succession of hammer blows. It is a highly economical method to point tubing, rod, and wire for redraw- and to size, shape reduce, taper and bond or form metal parts, hot or cold. Swaging benefits include:
• Improves physical characteristics because metal is forged with improved grain structure, and increased elastic limit and tensile strength.
• Imparts a high finish, which in most cases eliminates finishing operations.
• Permits control of wall thickness through the use of a mandrel.
• Speeds assembly where tubes are to be crimped together, fittings attached to tubing, rod, hose, flexible tubing, or wire cable.
• Permits lower stock inventory: Swaging to the required size and finish permits stocking fewer sizes.
• Saves on material because metal is displaced longitudinally as it is hammered…not wasted into chips by removal.
• Tooling is relatively low in cost: Dies are quickly changed and tooling is extremely flexible.
• Saves on labor because highly skilled operators are not essential. Several machines incorporating mechanical feeds can be tended by a single operator.

*PLEASE NOTE: Swager capacities listed above are for normal reductions on low-tensile material. Capacity must be reviewed for each specific application.
Rotary Swagers:In a Rotary Swager, the dies and hammers revolve around the work, producing perfect symmetrical pieces with an exceptional finish. FENN offers nine basic sizes of Rotary Swaging machines ranging in capacity from needle size to 6” O.D. tubing.Rotary Swagers are available in two types: 2-die or 4-die, which can swage harder materials and generally achieve greater reductions per pass. See back page for capacities of all models.
Swaging Dies for Most Makes of Machines:Dies are the very heart of swaging machines. Production of precision parts requires high quality dies. It’s no coincidence that FENN, the leading supplier of swaging machines, is also the leading supplier of swaging dies. Whether your swager is small or large in size, your swager dies, hammers and other wear parts are made specifically with your machine and application in mind. All of our FENN made spare parts are crafted with expertise, accuracy and pride in the USA.
Long Die Swagers:For tapering tubing up to 24” long. FENN Long Die Swaging Machines produce long, shallow tapers for items such as furniture legs, sporting goods, aerospace products economically and rapidly. These machines serve a wide variety of materials: both welded and seamless tubing of either ferrous or nonferrous metals, from stainless steel to aluminum. Coolant/Slushing Systems are available as an option on all size swagers.
Stationary Die Swagers:For non-circular cross sections: because the dies and hammers do not revolve in a Stationary Die Swager, it is possible to forge asymmetrical shapes never before produced by swaging. Two basic types are available: simultaneous blow (fluted shapes, circular cross sections) and the patented alternate blow (rectangular shapes, squares and hexagons).

Turks Head
• Permits forming directly from round to square, rectangles and special shapes.
• Accurate width & thickness control.
• Greater flexibility because rolls are infinitely adjustable.
• Lower maintenance costs- rolls can be reground.
• The Turks Head rolling principle produces less inherent friction than drawing.
• Used for making a variety of different profiles.
Achieve precision wire shaping with Fenn Turks Heads. For over 100 years, Fenn has been a leader in providing quality metal forming solutions across the globe. The Turks Head is a metal forming machine that can be compared to an adjustable draw die, but is actually infinitely adjustable within its limiting dimensions. The Turks Head operates on the Rolling Mill principle and imparts the same qualities to the metal as the Rolling Mill does, namely superior finish, accurate size and shape, and improved grain structure of the metal. The Turks Head differs from a rolling mill in the number and arrangement of rolls. The Turks Head utilizes two pairs of rolls, one pair is arranged horizontally, while the other is arranged vertically. Each type of Fenn Turks Head is designed to meet a particular requirement of precision wire or rod shaping. With the exception of power driven models, all types require a pull-through power source such as a bull block, double capstan, shedding drum or rolling mill. www.fenn-torin.com [email protected] +1 860.259.6600
Advantages:
Find the right Fenn Turks Head to give you an edge!
Universal Models- For producing accurate squares and rectangles directly from round wire at speeds up to 1,500 FPM. Any square or rectangle within the capacity of the Turks Head can be set up by merely adjusting the position of the rolls. Eight models are available. Plain and Combination Models- For producing special shapes either from entry rounds or performed rough shapes, or to put edge contours on flat metal ribbons or tapes. Maximum roll openings range from 15/16” x ¾” to 1-3/8” x 3”. Combination models combine the features of both universal and plain types. Speeds up to 1,500 FPM, twelve models available.

FENN is proud to have hundreds of installations across the globe including many successful well screen wire lines
The importance of a proper well screen cannot be overemphasized when considering the efficiency of the filtration process. Well Screen wire is widely used throughout the world for the filtration of water, oil, and gas wells, and is the dominant screen type used in the water well industry.
Well screens are made by winding rolled wire (typically stainless steel), triangular in cross section, around a circular array of longitudinal rods. The wire is attached to the rods by welding. With proven success across several installed lines, let FENN help your company become a leader in the production of well-screen wire with a line designed to suit your requirements.
“FENN’s Engineers and metallurgy experts worked closely with our team in all aspects of the project- from examining and understanding our material specifications to machine design, trial run at their works prior to shipment, and finally startup, commissioning and training of our operators at our factory in India”
