The VihoX-12SA represents our most agile hydraulic swing arm cutting press, purpose-built for secondary finishing of thermoformed packaging, small blister packs, and flexible synthetic sheets. Operators effortlessly pivot the cast aluminum cantilever beam over a 400 × 800 mm working bed, yielding unobstructed direct sightlines to align knife dies onto printed or vacuum-formed components. Delivering a certified 12-ton hydraulic thrust driven by an energy-efficient 1.1 kW motor, this compact clicker machine cleanly parts single or stacked materials with zero edge distortion.
| Specification Parameter | Engineering Value (VihoX-12SA) | Production Advantage & Technical Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Certified Shearing Force | 12 T (Metric Tons) | Generates adequate tonnage to slice through rigid thermoformed polymers, rubber gaskets, and dense foam inserts. |
| Working Cutting Bed | 400 × 800 mm | Offers an ergonomic envelope tailored for small-format blister cards, medical packaging trays, and cup lid blanks. |
| Adjustable Ram Stroke | 5–75 mm | Provides fast cycle speed on shallow parts while retaining travel distance for tall contoured blisters. |
| Platen Daylight Height | Approx. 50–120 mm | Accommodates standard 23.8 mm and 32 mm wood-base cutting dies alongside reusable nylon cutting boards. |
| Electric Drive Power | 1.1 kW | Consumes minimal electricity while delivering snappy hydraulic cycling suited for manual assembly stations. |
| Material Handling Format | Manual Infeed + Swing Arm | Permits instantaneous manual rotation of the arm for rapid die placement and immediate part sorting. |
| Operational Control Set | Two-Hand Safety Buttons | Enforces strict European CE machinery safety requirements by preventing one-handed hazard intrusions. |
| Chassis Static Weight | Approx. 340–600 kg | Substantial cast-iron base damps floor vibrations, maintaining steady platen parallelism across daily production shifts. |
| Overall Machine Dimensions | Approx. 800 × 750 × 1350 mm | Extremely modest footprint allows placement directly adjacent to secondary packing tables and thermoforming cells. |
At the heart of the VihoX-12SA is a heavy-duty vertical column housing precision ground bushings and an integrated hydraulic ram. The swinging head rotates freely across the bed on low-friction bearings, allowing operators to swing the platen away instantly after each shearing cycle. Micro-metric die height calibration is achieved via an intuitive overhead handwheel, enabling changeovers between varying die rule heights without loosening mounting hardware.
Hydraulic fluid is supplied by an internal gear pump operating at balanced pressure. Downward travel terminates crisply when an adjustable limit switch contacts the stop collar, ensuring that steel knives penetrate cleanly through plastic sheets into the polypropylene pad without chewing through the backing board. Dual-hand control buttons must be depressed concurrently, eliminating pinch risks during downward stroke cycles.

Within modern packaging facilities, the VihoX-12SA serves as a dedicated off-line trimming station:
The 12SA supports standard laser wooden dies with 23.8 mm or 32 mm steel rules, forged clicker dies, and single-cavity steel bands for cutting plastics, foam, and card stock.
Depth regulation is completed in seconds by rotating the top handwheel mechanism, which raises or lowers the mechanical limit switch contact point.
Yes, provided the total perimeter cutting knife length remains within the 12-ton hydraulic rating. For multilayer plastic stacks, we verify knife meter calculations beforehand.
The machine requires simultaneous two-hand push-button activation within 0.3 seconds; releasing either switch instantly arrests hydraulic cylinder movement.
We recommend high-molecular polypropylene (PP) or cast polyamide nylon boards with 20–25 mm thickness to prolong blade sharpness.
No, the VihoX-12SA relies solely on its self-contained motor and hydraulic fluid reservoir, functioning independently of compressed air supplies.
An initial oil drain and refill using ISO VG 46 anti-wear fluid is advised after 500 working hours, followed by yearly oil changes under single-shift duties.
Yes, while standard wiring is 380V 50Hz 3-phase, our factory routinely builds 220V 3-phase, 415V, and 480V units for international export destinations.
