A device for cutting and bending a hollow elongate tube. A measuring subassembly is adapted for measuring a desired size of the tube. A cutting subassembly is adapted for cutting the tube to the desired size. A bending subassembly is adapted for bending the cut tube to a desired angular orientation. The bending subassembly includes a base controlling a radius of a bend to be formed in the cut hollow elongate tube, and a user grippable handle. The user grippable handle is configured to enable a user to rotate the cut hollow elongate tube, relative to the round base, to form the bend in the cut hollow elongate tube.

A universal automation tooling receiver/adapter assembly includes a receiver with mechanical coding which may include both air and electric control, a steel plate, and two gib supports. An adapter whose style is dependent on the type of tooling required, and a manifold with mechanical coding and which may include air and electric. In use, the receiver/adapter assembly can be used in multiple applications where material is being picked up and moved from a first location to second location and/or to hold parts between operations in a press.

A stamping strip manufacturing system comprises a stamping machine forming terminals in a strip by stamping. A supply reel around which a strip to be stamped is wound supplies the strip to be stamped to the stamping machine, and a recovery reel around which the stamped strip is wound recovers the stamped strip. A strip cutting and welding device of the system cuts off an unqualified strip segment of the strip having an unqualified terminal and welds two cut ends of the cut strip to each other.

A stamping strip manufacturing system comprises a stamping machine forming terminals in a strip by stamping, a supply reel around which the strip to be stamped is wound for supplying the strip to be stamped to the stamping machine, and a recovery reel around which the stamped strip is wound for recovering the stamped strip. The system further includes an autonomous mobile robot on which a cutting tool and a welding tool are mounted. The autonomous mobile robot is adapted to cut off an unqualified strip segment of the stamped strip having an unqualified terminal by operating the cutting tool, and to weld two cut ends of the cut strip to each other by operating the welding tool.

A method for producing a pressed component and for designing a die applicable even when a component shape that cannot be formed without being greatly drawn is produced. A method for producing a component for press forming a metal sheet into a final component shape through two or more press steps including a step carried out by drawing includes: determining the inflow amount of a material required for forming the metal sheet into the final shape based on the increase in the cross-sectional line length of the shape with respect to the line length of the sheet before forming in the press forming of the sheet into the final component shape by a step; and distributing the determined inflow amount of the material to each step including a final press step, and determining a preformed shape after forming in steps other than the final step based on the inflow amount

Machine to work oblong metal products, including a drawing apparatus to feed at least one of said metal products in a direction of feed and a work apparatus aligned in said direction of feed. The drawing apparatus includes a first drawing unit and a second drawing unit opposite each other with respect to said direction of feed. The first drawing unit and the second drawing unit define between them, in said direction of feed, a drawing channel for the at least one metal product. The drawing channel has a lying plane, defined by a plurality of anchoring inserts, for the at least one metal product, a supply apparatus being possibly present upstream of said drawing apparatus.
