HOME PRODUCTS KNOWLEDGE BASE PRICING / BUYING ABOUT CONTACT Marker Band Swagers Home / Marker Band Swagers The Blockwise marker band swaging machines, models SGA and SGB are tabletop machines that swage radiopaque marker bands on a tube. A complete band attachment process typically comprises: positioning the bands, precrimping the bands into a triangular or hexagonal shape to prevent them moving on the tube, and swaging the bands – radially hammering them many times to reduce the diameter and make the bands round and smooth. Precrimping prevents the band moving along the tube during swaging. Learn more about swaging basics. Single Product Loading Marker Band Swagers Model SGA & SGB The industry’s most precise marker band swager. This band swager’s geometry-controlled (not force-controlled) process accomplishes a precise swaged diameter. Automated product feeding into the die ensures band swaging diameters are highly repeatable. This machine is an ideal solution for production environments. Model SGA Standard Force Frequency Diameter Range 95 Hz 0.25 to 4mm Model SGB High Force Frequency Diameter Range 55 Hz 0.25 to 4mm Automated Loading Attachments for Band Swagers Tray Loader The tray loader attachment dramatically reduces the time needed to load and unload products into the marker band swagers. The tray loader option greatly increases swager productivity. SGA with Tray Loader Standard Force Frequency Diameter Range 95 Hz 0.5 to 2.5mm SGB with Tray Loader High Force Frequency Diameter Range 55 Hz .05 to 2.5mm Simple Marker Band Swager Model SGL & SGS Using the same swaging dies as the SGA & SGB marker band swagers, products are fed by hand into the swaging die. These simple band swagers are a great low-cost option for low-volume swaging. They can also be upgraded to a band swager with touch-screen recipe control and automated product feeding. Model SGL swager Standard Force Frequency Diameter Range 95 Hz 0.25 to 4mm Model SGS swager High Force Frequency Diameter Range 55 Hz 0.25 to 4mm Relevant Knowledge Base Articles Knowledge Base Crimping versus Swaging Swaging Basics Marker Band Precrimping Blockwise Engineering LLC is an Arizona company, formed in the year 2000.
