4 Description
4.1 General Machine Description
The Stolle Machinery Standun Bodymaker System is an integrated system consisting of a basic
bodymaker, an electrical control console and a lubrication system.
1. In the typical operating layout, the bodymaker:
• Receives cups from a conveyor system.
• Forms the cups into can bodies by a continuous redrawing and wall-ironing operation.
• Delivers the can bodies to an outfeed conveyor (trimmer infeed).
The system is designed to produce can bodies in various sizes of aluminum or steel.
The bodymaker operates automatically and continuously to produce can bodies when proper
operating conditions exist. System shutdown is automatic when, a bodymaker malfunction
causes a can jam or short can condition.
2. Shutdown also occurs, when one or more of the following improper conditions happen:
• Cup infeed failure
• Can outfeed overload
• Loss of lubrication system pressure
• Loss of compressed air supply pressure
• Personnel safety hazard
• High operating temperatures
• Loss of coolant flow
• System standby shutdown
• Line control signals standby

5 Theory Of Operation
The bodymaker forms one-piece aluminum or steel can bodies from cups. The production cycle will
be described as a basic forward and return stroke of the ram.

5.1 Forward Stroke


The forward motion of a reciprocating ram forces the cup through a redraw die to reduce the inside
diameter of the cup. As the ram continues its stroke, the cup is drawn through progressively smaller
ironing dies to reduce the wall thickness of the cup. Ironing the wall between the outside diameter
of the punch and the inside diameter of the die ring will form the proper metal gauge and length of
the can body. At the end of the ram's forward stroke, the can body is forced against a doming die to
form the bottom contour of the can.

5.2 Return Stroke


The ironed aluminum or steel can body is then stripped from the punch as the ram starts its return
stroke by a combination of air strip assist and segmented spring action fingers or plastic ring. The
completed and untrimmed can body is then transferred to an outfeed conveyor for delivery and

Stolle Machinery will furnish floor plan drawings for exact dimensional requirements for the
bodymaker and trimmer installations including recommendations for minimum access clearances.
Follow the drawing specifications in planning shop layouts and installations. (Contact Stolle
Machinery Customer Service at 303-708-9044.)

7.1 Foundation
The foundation must be prepared in advance of the machine delivery. Allow four (4) weeks for the
concrete to harden before machine installation. (Contact Stolle Machinery Customer Service
Department for foundation specifications and anchor locating fixture.)
NOTE: Location and squareness of foundation anchors are critical.

7.2 Utilities
(See Section 3.2 Technical Characteristics)

7.3 Machine Leveling Procedure


Refer to foundation drawing for specific hardware and leveling information.

CAUTION!
Turn off machine power to do this procedure.

The bodymaker must be level, front to rear, and operator side to flywheel side, to a tolerance of
0.001 inch-per-foot to operate efficiently. Use a precision machinist's level graduated to 10 seconds
of a degree (0.0005 inch-per-foot) for precise measurement.
NOTE: Level the bodymaker when it is at ambient temperature only.
1. Use a level which has been checked and certified accurate to 0.0005 inch-per-foot.
2. The machine must rest on the four adjustment screws (“F”). Check that leveling pads (See Fig-
ure 7-1) are seated properly on the floor.
3. The four (4) adjustment screws “A” should be backed-off slightly so that they do not support
any of the bodymaker's weight.
4. Open the machine cover to access the slideway level mounting surfaces “G”. Clean the sur-
faces before installing standoffs “B” (part no. 140-0403).
5. Place special leveling bar “C” (part no. 140-0394) on top of the standoffs.
6. Place the precision level on leveling bar “C”. Be sure the instruments sit squarely on the
machined surface.
7. Take preliminary lateral and longitudinal readings at three (3) places on each side (See Figure
7-2).
8. Determine which bodymaker corner is the lowest. Turn the adjustment screw at that corner
counterclockwise to raise that part of the machine.
9. Take additional readings in both directions and adjust whichever corner is lowest until the
machine is level (See Figure 7-2).

WARNING!
To perform many of the adjustments and procedures it is necessary to momentarily turn on electrical power
and air pressure to the machine. Ensure that all personnel are clear of the machine before power is turned
on. As an additional precaution against accidental machine start-up during adjustments and procedures or
maintenance, all WARNING tags must be attached to the machine controls and all safety precautions
followed. BE SAFETY CONSIOUS

NOTE: There must be at least 1-7/8 inches of space between each of the eight leveling pads
and the corresponding bodymaker mounting foot. Refer to the foundation DRAWING for
additional information. To achieve the minimum space (bodymaker height) requirement,
turn all four (4) corner adjustment screws counterclockwise approximately the same
amount.
10. Turn the two (2) “A1” adjustment screws counterclockwise until they seat against the body-
maker mounting feet. Be sure the machine level is still maintained. With the level bar “C”
checking positions numbered 2, 4, 7, and 8, turn the adjustment screws counterclockwise until
they seat against the bodymaker feet. Be sure the machine level is still maintained. Turn the
last two (2) “A2” adjustment screws counterclockwise until they seat against the bodymaker
mounting feet. Be sure the machine level is still maintained with the leveling bar “C” checking
positions numbered 2, 4, 7, and 8 (See Figure 7-2, Machine Leveling).
11. Attach the machine mounting hardware. Thread the hex nuts “D” (See Figure 7-1) onto the tie-
down studs. Torque the lower hex nuts to 450 ft. lbs. Tighten the upper hex nuts. Refer to the
Foundation Drawing for proper torque of hex nuts. First tighten and torque the lower hex nuts
then tighten the upper nuts.
12. Take a final level reading on top of the leveling bar “C”. If necessary, reposition all eight (8)
adjustment screws to level the bodymaker laterally and longitudinally to within 0.001 inch-per-
foot. When taking final readings, turn the level end-for-end at each location to verify accuracy.
13. If the readings have changed, loosen the hex nuts and reposition the adjustment screws to
level the bodymaker. Tighten and torque the hex nuts (See step 11).
14. Remove the precision leveling hardware from the machine interior.
15. Close the machine cover.

7.4 Slide Yoke Lift With Ram Attached Adjustment


1. Put machine controls in the “inch” mode. Press the yellow BDC (back-dead-center) button.
2. Check the slide yoke for lift at two positions along the slideway.The front position should be 4
inches from the face of the hydrostatic cartridge (See Figure 6-4). Rear position should be
checked at BDC.
3. Check the oil temperature for 115° ± 5°F (46° ± 3°C).
4. Turn the hydrostatic oil off.
5. Place a magnetic base and indicator on the slideway. Preload and zero the indicator on one of
the corners of the slide yoke at “X” (See Figure 7-4).
6. Do the same to all four corners in both front and rear positions.
7. Turn on the high pressure hydrostatic oil. Record the vertical lift of the slide yoke.
LIFT SPECIFICATION:
Vertical Lift = .0015"- .003"
Side Clearance = .008" to .010"
8. If the slide yoke does not meet these specifications, check the Lee jets. They must be clean
and the correct size. Check the slide yoke and hydrostatic pads for nicks, burrs, or foreign
material that will affect the movement of the slide yoke.
NOTE: Remove both top rails and the ram to inspect all sliding surfaces.
a. Check the main oil pressure for 1100-1200 psi.
b. Inspect the hydrolube lines and connections between the swing lever and slide yoke.
c. Check the condition of the in-line screen at the slide yoke manifold for cleanliness.
d. Check the manifold blocks for leaks.

7.5 Cradle Alignment From the Ram


1. Remove tooling from the tool pack. Open the doming door to prevent contact with the domer
tooling.
2. Check the hydrostatic oil temperature for 115° ± 5°F (46° ± 3°C).
3. Single stroke the machine 10 times as quickly as possible to raise the ram's temperature.

CAUTION!
The punch nut MUST be tightened onto the punch to firmly secure it to the ram during this operation.

4. Be sure the three (3) indicator alignment fixture is correctly preset using the plug provided.
a. If the punch is larger than the plug:
• Subtract the setup plug diameter from the diameter of the punch.
• Divide the answer by two (2).
• Set that number to minus the indicator.
b. If the punch is smaller than the plug:
• Subtract the punch diameter from the diameter of the setup plug.
• Divide the answer by two (2).
• Set that number to plus the indicator.
5. Slowly inch the punch into the cradle area. Carefully place the three (3) indicator alignment fix-
ture into the cradle.
6. Slide it onto the punch until it is in the redraw area. The punch nose must
be flush with the face of the fixture.
7. Record the reading and the sign (±) from the indicators on the form provided.
8. Inch the punch sleeve to the inside surface of the stripper bulkhead.
9. Slide the fixture to within 1/4” of the stripper bulkhead.
10. Record and compare the readings.
11. The specifications for cradle alignment are as follows:
The cradle centerline alignment must be parallel within .0002"
Cradle Centerline Squareness
from the ram centerline as measured from redraw to the 3rd iron
(Horizontal):
positions.
Cradle The cradle centerline must be within +.0000" to - .0005” at the
Centerline Vertical: REDRAW position.

a. Vertical Cradle alignment: (Ideal)


Vertical cradle alignment is critical to the can manufacturing process, but is not relative to
ram droop other than by providing a stable platform from which ram droop can be mea-
sured.

21-Jan-13 Stolle Machinery User Manual


Page 7-6 B6/B7 Bodymaker
Installation, Alignment, and Adjustment - 7
The ideal cradle position is centered to the ram and punch position (between 0 to
minus.0005”), when the punch is located at the redraw die position. This position is to be
maintained parallel and vertical for all dies throughout the length of the cradle.
Note: The static ram droop is not an alignment specification. The ram will dynami-
cally follow the center of the dies and cradle centerline vertically and horizontally.
This ideal alignment positions the cradle so that the cradle is level to the bed, and the cra-
dle support rails run parallel to the path of the ram.
This ideal alignment ensures that the cradle rails are level, thus ensuring the face of the
tooling is perpendicular and square to the path of the ram. This is extremely critical. If the
die rings are positioned at a slant angle, back-to-front, front-to-back, and/or side-to-side,
the die ring I.D. “circle” takes on some degree of ovality. This results in can production of
circular cross-section while ironing through oval tooling. This condition is not optimal for
producing quality cans of cylindrical shape.
12. If the specifications above cannot be met consult Stolle Machinery's Customer service depart-
ment at 303-708-9044.

13. Ram droop is the measurable result of the static effects of gravity on the punch and ram at one
end, while the other end of the ram is extended horizontally away from a point of support. The
ram with an attached punch sleeve and punch nose/bolt at a forward-most point of support
from the cartridge bushing may result in measurable static droop.
a. Ram droop is the measured distance the ram drops vertically when the ram is extended
further from the origin point of support. The origin point distance from the bearing support
varies depending upon machine stroke length.
b. Ram droop is measured in the following manner:
• The ram is inched forward to a position where the leading end of the punch sleeve body
would come in contact with the redraw die. At this position the ram has been extended
a given distance “X” from the bearing support. At this position the top center vertical
position of the punch sleeve is established datum point “0” (zero). This top center posi-
tion is established by using a 3-indicator fixture (if the cradle has been installed and
aligned), or with a mag base indicator stand and a dial indicator (measuring from the
top surface of the bed if no cradle is installed). At this position, top center of the punch
is located, and the indicator is set to read “0” (zero).
• The ram is then inched forward until the leading end of the punch body is at the 3rd
Ironing Die position. This extends the ram approximately 9 inches further from its dis-
tance “X” for base point. The “zeroed” indicator is then placed at the same top center
location on the punch. The indicator will now measure a minus reading. This minus
reading difference is what is commonly referred to as static ram droop.
• This indicator reading is simply a static measurement of the effects of gravity on the
ram and punch tooling assembly. The amount of ram droop is not pre-determined by
the ram bearing design. If the punch mass is heavier by design, ram droop will be
greater. Conversely less tooling weight directly reduces ram droop.
• Ram droop does not occur during the can ironing process dynamically. The can mate-
rial fills the gap between the punch and the I.D. of the redraw/ironing dies and over-
comes the effects of gravity. The presence of this material acts as a supporting force
and prevents the ram from dynamically drooping. If this were not the case, can wall
thickness of one side of the can would be significantly less than the wall thickness of
the opposite side of the can and be consistently oriented. The ram is a flexible member
of the machine design and will follow the ironing die center position. The toolpack posi-
tion dictates the ram position, not visa versa. The ram will follow the toolpack always –
even if it is located off center significantly.
14. Negative Effects of Ram Droop
15. Unless ram droop is excessive, there are no negative effects. The ram, with or without the
punch attached, does not come in direct contact with any solid material or object(s) other than
at its point of attachment to the slide yoke, the cup/can material, the ram seals, and the domer.
The ram’s forward-most point of support is the cartridge bushing. The cartridge bushing pro-
vides support and guidance hydrostatically under high pressure oil film, not metal to metal con-
tact. The slide yoke is also guided hydrostatically within the machine ways and provides only
secondary support of influence on ram position.
16. All bodymakers have static ram droop regardless of manufacturer, stroke and/or design. Ram
droop varies from stroke length to stroke length, from machine to machine, and from tooling
design to tooling design. It is a natural occurrence of a horizontally oriented machine.

21-Jan-13 Stolle Machinery User Manual


Page 7-8 B6/B7 Bodymaker
Installation, Alignment, and Adjustment - 7
17. Ram droop is not considered excessive until it exceeds beyond thin wall specifications.
Standun recommends the machine maintenance be reviewed if the ram droop approaches or
exceeds.004” on any stroke length machine. The likelihood of tool to tool contact increases as
droop increases. Use droop as a measuring of maintenance requirements – not as an align-
ment specification.

7.6 Blank Holder Alignment


1. The blank holder holds the cup flat and centered against the redraw die.
2. Initial blank holder to front piston checks are as follows:
a. Remove the punch and tooling from the tool pack.
b. Inch the blank holder to its most forward position. The ram must not protrude beyond the
blank holder.
c. Install the redraw linkage preload fixture.

WARNING!
Do not move redraw linkage with restraints installed.

d. Turn the machine controls to the “inch” mode. Be sure the front piston air pressure is at 35
to 40 psi.

e. Place the cylindrical square into the tool pack.


f. Preload a cylindrical square indicator against the face of the blank holder.
g. Set the indicator to zero.
h. Sweep the face, from the left side to the right side. The indicator should read .0005" T.I.R.
i. If a left to right alignment is required, grind the hold-down pushrod split spacers.
j. Relocate the cylindrical square to indicate the blank holder's outside diameter. It should be
within .001" T.I.R.
k. Loosen the four (4) 5/16-18 ring bolts until they are snug.
l. Tap either side of the register ring to reach the .001" T.I.R.
m. Tighten the four (4) 5/16-18 ring bolts. Check for the .001" T.I.R. again.
n. Replace the blank holder locating ring. Be sure the ring is against the bottom of the blank
holder as you tighten the ring bolts.
3. Remove the redraw preload fixture.
4. Remove the blank holder, the blank holder spacer and the locating ring.
5. Move the front piston assembly all the way forward.
6. Reinstall the redraw preload fixture.

User Manual Stolle Machinery 21-Jan-13


B6/B7 Bodymaker Page 7-9

7. Preload a cylindrical square indicator against the face of the redraw piston plate. Set the indi-
cator to zero and sweep the face. It should read .0005" T.I.R. from the left to right.
8. If left to right alignment is required, grind the hold-down push rod split spacers (See Figure 7-
6).
9. Mount the blank holder spacer with the four (4) 5/16-18 mounting screws.
10. Preload a cylindrical square indicator against the face of the blank holder spacer. Set the indi-
cator to zero and sweep the face. It should read .0005” T.I.R.
11. If alignment is required, grind the blank holder spacer on a tapered angle.
12. Recheck the blank holder spacer after grinding.
13. Mount and align the locating ring. Adjust concentricity to within .001” T.I.R.
14. Tighten and torque all mounting screws (See Figure 7-13).
15. Recheck the blank holder locating ring alignment. Concentricity must be within .001” T.I.R.
16. Mount the blank holder.
17. Check squareness and concentricity. Readjust if necessary.
18. Remove the redraw preload fixture.

7.7 Blank Holder Over-travel Adjustment


1. Inch the ram until the blank holder is all the way forward.
2. Use tapered feeler gauges to check the gap between the front piston bushing and the piston
flanged sleeve (See Figure 7-6).
3. Refer to the timing diagram for over-travel requirements (See Figure 7-13).
4. Gap adjustment is done through equal thickness changes to both sets of push rod split spac-
ers (See Figure 7-6). A direct 1:1 ratio will apply because a .010" increase in spacer thickness
will increase over-travel by .010" and vice versa.

7.11 Flanged Ram Installation With Locating Space


1. Remove the punch.
2. Inch the ram until the slide yoke is 10 inches from the rear face of the hydrostatic cartridge
bushing.
3. Remove the ram seal pack from the front bulkhead. Slide it forward about one (1) inch on the
ram so that it does not interfere with the remaining setup procedures.
4. Mount the two (2) magnetic indicator bases on the slideways. Preload the two (2) indicators,
one against the top and one against the side of the ram (See Figure 8-3).
5. Loosen the six (6) attachment bolts “M” from the Flange end of the ram. Record any move-
ment of the indicators.
6. Gently pull the ram from the locating spacer.
7. Slowly float the ram back into the locating spacer. Do this several times noting the maximum
deflections in both directions.
8. A deflection greater than .0002" in the locating spacer is unacceptable. These components
must be reset before proceeding.

7.12 Seal Pack Removal And Installation


1. The seals in the ram seal pack should be inspected during every preventive maintenance
period. Replace seals whenever the ram is removed for dimensional checks. The procedure
for changing the seal pack, when leaving the ram attached to the slide yoke, is as follows:
a. Turn the lubrication system on.
b. Bar the machine to BDC (back-dead-center).
c. Shut the lubrication system and the main air off.
d. Disconnect the slide yoke oil and air lines at the inlet manifold.
e. Disconnect the push rod linkage at the hold-down link swivel bearings.
f. Push the front piston assembly all the way forward.
g. Disconnect the secondary con-rod from the swing lever.
h. Pull the slide yoke and ram back far enough until there is sufficient room to remove the
seal pack.
i. Inspect the ram punch sleeve mounting nose for nicks or burrs.
j. If necessary, lightly stone the edge.
k. Replace the seals with the new ones.
l. Insert the seal guard cone onto the ram shank before installing the seal pack onto the ram
shank.

Installation, Alignment, and Adjustment - 7
NOTE: The seal guard plug will protect the seals from damage when the corner of the
ram shank is pushed through the seal pack. Refer to the maintenance tool list for THE
RAM SEAL INSTALLATION TOOL (See MAINTENANCE tool list)
m. Push the ram forward until the seal pack contacts the rear side of the front piston assem-
bly.
n. Give the ram a firm push to move the seal pack onto the ram body.
o. Mount the seal pack assembly to the register in the bulkhead.
p. Remove the seal guard cone from the ram shank.
q. Attach the secondary con-rod to the swing lever.
r. Attach the redraw links.

7.13 Lift And Side Clearance Of The Slide Yoke - Without Ram Attached
1. With the oil turned off, push the slide yoke to one side. Measure the total clearance (on the
opposite side) with shim stock between the brass pads and the slideway at rear of slide yoke
travel.
2. Check the oil temperature for 115° ± 5°F (46° ±. 3°C).
3. Turn off the hydrostatic oil. Place a magnetic base and indicator on the slideway. Preload and
zero the indicator on one of the corners of the slide yoke.
4. Turn the high pressure hydrostatic oil on and record the vertical lift of the slide yoke.
5. The slide yoke should be checked for lift at each of the two locations along the slideway.
6. Specification Values are: (From the Pads of the Rails)
Vertical Lift = .0015" ± .003"
Side Clearance = .008" to .010"
7. If the slide yoke does not meet these specifications, check the Lee jets to ensure they are
clean and are the correct size.
8. Check the condition of the slideways and the slide yoke pads for nicks or burrs that impede
free movement of the slide yoke.
NOTE: This may require removing both top rails to inspect all sliding surfaces.
9. Check the main oil pressure for 1150 ± 50 psi.
10. Inspect the hydrolube pipes and connections between the swing lever and the slide carriage.
11. Be sure the high pressure filters are in good condition.
12. Check the manifold blocks for leaks.

7.14 Ram Installation Procedure


The following is the procedure required to mount the ram to the slide yoke.

7.14.1 Ram Clamp Ring Preload Check


1. Do this check in the tool room.
2. Assemble the clamp ring, split spacers, and locating ring on the butt end of the ram.
3. With the assembly on the bench in the tool room, hold the clamping ring against the locating
ring/split ring assembly using hand pressure or hang the ram assembly via a fixture from the
clamp ring. (see Figure 7-12)
4. Measure the distance between the butt end of the ram and the surface of the locating ring. Use
a depth micrometer. (see Figure 7-12).

Figure 7-12:
5. Grind the split spacer to give a 003" to 005" preload. Remove the clamp ring and split spacers
from the butt end of the ram and put them aside.
6. Jog the machine until the slide yoke is 10" - 12" from the rear face of the hydrostatic cartridge
bushing.
7. Remove the seal pack assembly.
8. Slide the ram into the hydrostatic cartridge.
9. Mount the ram to the slide yoke.
10. Install the seal pack. (See section 7.12)

8 Maintenance and Lubrication


The importance of each of the bodymaker components, to the total effectiveness of the operation of
the system, requires a program of periodic inspection and maintenance. Inspections must be
scheduled daily, weekly, and monthly. Use the Preventive Maintenance Check Lists provided in
this section to help assist in accomplishing this.

8.1 Cleaning
After testing at Stolle Machinery, the bodymaker is prepared for shipment. The lubricating system is
drained. The machine interior is flushed out and cleaned. The unpainted surfaces are coated with
thick spray-on compound. A lighter compound is applied on surfaces such as cam faces and
precision finished surfaces.

WARNING!
Most effective cleaning solvents are toxic to humans when inhaled or ingested. Prolonged skin
contact can be harmful. These solvents are combustible when exposed to an open flame, sparks,
or excessive heat. Avoid situations that could initiate combustion. Use in an open, well ventilated
area.
• Personnel working with strong solvents must wear protective clothing including:
• Full face breathing masks with eye protection features.
• Rubber apron.
• Rubber gloves.
• Personnel should wash their hands thoroughly with soap and warm water after working with
solvents.

1. Open the covers to access the machine's interior. Wash the anti-rust compound from the slide-
ways and the machine’s inner surfaces with an approved solvent (Mobil Sovasol No. 5, or
equivalent). Clean with lint free wiping cloths.
2. Wash the interior of the machine with an air-pressure wash gun (Binks Manufacturing Co., No.
140B Engine Cleaner, or equivalent) and solvent. Be sure that all traces of anti-rust compound
are removed from the bodymaker components and surfaces.

WARNING!
Ordinary precautions must be taken when using solvents. Confine spray stream and splatter to
the machine interior.

3. Pump solvent and foreign material out of the machine interior into a container for disposal or
reuse. Solvent may be reclaimed for reuse by filtering or precipitation methods to remove for-
eign matter.
4. Wipe all painted exterior surfaces with a clean cloth dampened with solvent. Dry the surfaces
with a clean, dry cloth. Kerosene may be substituted instead of solvent to clean the machine
exterior.
5. Wipe exterior surfaces of the electrical console with a clean cloth dampened with solvent. Dry
surfaces with a clean, dry cloth.

8.2 Hydraulic Oil Condition Check


1. Fill the equipment with recommended hydraulic oil.
2. Check the oil level in the sight glass. The oil should be at the top of the sight gauge when the
pumps are on.
3. Check all hydrostatic lube connectors from the lubricator pumps to the bodymaker supply lines
for loose or leaking connectors.
4. Tighten or replace the connectors and the supply lines as necessary.
5. Check the oil temperature for 115° ± 5°F (46° ± 3°C).
6. Check the Parker and Hydratech oil filters and strainer for proper operation.
7. Clean the in-line screen in the slide yoke manifold.
8. Check the oil pressure for 1100 to 1200 psi.
If the pressure is low check:
• Relief valve for proper operation
• Pump delivery pressure for 1100 to 1200 psi.
• Main oil pump failure.
9. Periodically check the overall condition of the oil for:
• Congealed oil.
• Burned oil.
• Solid particles.
If any of these conditions are present, a cleaning and oil change is necessary.

8.3 Lee Jet Check


1. Remove the Lee jets from the primary or hydrostatic cartridge bushing lube block and/or the
slide yoke. Use the tools shown below.
2. Clean and inspect for any sign of blockage.
3. Use a wire gauge to check for the correct size. (Wire gauge sets are available from Stolle
Machinery. Order part no. 087839)
4. When reinstalling the Lee jets, only light clamp pressure or torque is required to re-seat them.
Too much torque will strip the hex.
NOTE: Remove the Nylok insert from the threads on new Lee jets before installing them.

8.5 Resetting Procedure For The Clamp Ring And Locating Ring
1. Before resetting the locating ring, the ram to ram spacer contact must be checked to be sure it
is within specification.
2. Remove the locating ring and apply a thin film of Prussian blue or Dykem to the entire surface
of the ram butt.
3. Turn on the hydrostatic lube. Before proceeding further visually check for a uniform flow of
lube from each Lee jet in both bushings. Be sure a .0015" piece of shim stock enters all around
the circumference of both bushings.
4. Hold the spacer firmly to the slide yoke with six (6) short mounting screws. Float the butt end of
the ram slowly towards the slide yoke until it comes into contact with the ram spacer. Rotate
the ram backward and forward several times in an arc of approximately 40 degrees.
5. Float the ram away from the spacer. Examine the ram spacer for the amount of ram contact.
The amount of Prussian blue or Dykem on the ram spacer will indicate the extent of contact.
6. Ninety percent contact is acceptable. If the amount of contact is below 90 percent, lap the ram
spacer and repeat para. 6.11.2 thru 6.11.5 until 90 percent contact is achieved.
NOTE: Finger tighten the two small countersunk screws clamping the ram spacer to the
SLIDE yoke. If the screws are too tight, a false reading may result.
7. Reinstall the locating ring and bolts. Hand tighten them.
8. Slide the butt end of the ram back into the locating ring and zero the indicators.
9. Torque the ram locating ring bolts to 45 ft. lbs. in the following sequence:
• Nine (9) O’clock
• Three (3) O’clock
• Eleven (11) O’clock
• Five (5) O’clock
• One (1) O’clock
• Seven (7) O’clock
As the ram locating ring bolts are torqued, the maximum allowable indicator movement is
.0001" to .0002". If it is greater, repeat steps 7 thru 9.
10. Move the ram away from the locating ring.
11. Slide the ram clamp ring onto the ram.
12. Install the split spacers into the ram groove.
13. Move the ram clamp ring over the split spacers to hold them in place.
14. Slide the ram toward the slide yoke until the ram butt makes contact with the ram spacer.
15. Insert the six (6) bolts through the clamp ring. Hand tighten them.
16. Preload the two (2) indicators against the top and side of the ram. Set the indicators to zero.
17. Torque the clamping ring bolts to 45 ft. lbs. in the following sequence:
• Eight (8) O’clock

User Manual Stolle Machinery 21-Jan-13


B6/B7 Bodymaker Page 8-5
Maintenance and Lubrication - 8
• Two (2) O’clock
• Ten (10) O’clock
• Four (4) O’clock
• Twelve (12) O’clock
• Six (6) O’clock
If the movement is greater than .0001" to .0002", the ram clamp must be loosened and re-
torqued.
18. Reinstall the seal pack (See para. 7.12). Recheck the slide yoke lift.

8.6 Resetting Procedure For The Flanged Ram


1. Before resetting the locating spacer, the ram to ram spacer contact must be checked to be
sure it is within specification. Refer to Ram Assembly drawing for these specifications, and fol-
low their procedure.
2. Turn on the hydrostatic lube. Before proceeding further visually check for a uniform flow of
lube from each Lee jet in both bushings. Be sure a .0015" piece of shim stock enters all around
the circumference of both bushings.
3. Mount the ram spacer to the slide yoke with (4) 1/4-20 screws assembled finger tight. Move
the ram into the spacer locating bore and tighten the (4) 1/4-20 screws to 12 ft.-lbs thru the
clearance holes provided in the ram flange. Be sure the ram position does not move following
the procedure outlined in section 8.5.
4. With the ram spacer mounted securely to the slide yoke in the proper location, slide the ram
out of the spacer's locating bore and apply a film of Prussian blue or Dykem to the entire mat-
ing surface of the flange.
5. Float the flanged end of the ram slowly toward the slide yoke until the flange comes into con-
tact with the ram spacer mounting surface. Rotate the ram backward and forward several
times in an arc of approximately 40° to transfer bluing from the ram flange to the ram spacer.
6. Float the ram away from the spacer and examine the ram spacer for the amount of ram con-
tact. Do not over coat the surfaces with excessive amounts of bluing.
NOTE: The amount of Dykem or Prussion blue on the ram spacer will indicate the extent
of contact between the ram and spacer.
7. The specification for acceptable ram contact is 90%. If the amount of contact is below this, lap
the ram spacer and repeat items 3 to 5 until this is achieved.
NOTE: Ensure that proper torque is applied to the (4) ¼-20 screws clamping the ram
spacer to the yoke. if these are loose, a false reading may result.
8. Slide the ram towards the yoke until the ram flange makes contact with the ram spacer. Insert
the six bolts through the ram and hand tighten. Pre-load the two indicators against the top and
side of the ram, as before, and set to zero. Tighten and torque the bolts to 45 ft./lbs in the fol-
lowing sequence:
• Nine(9)o'clock
• Three(3)o'clock
• Eleven(11)o'clock

Maintenance and Lubrication - 8
• Five(5)o'clock
• One(1)o'clock
• Seven(7)o'clock
As the ram mounting bolts are torqued, the maximum allowable indicator movement is .0002".
If it is greater, repeat 3 thru 7.
9. Reinstall the seal pack (See section 6.12). Recheck the slide yoke lift.

8.7 Ram Specifications - Tool Room Checks


1. The ram should be checked in the tool room when its ambient temperature has stabilized. This
will take several hours even with the aid of an artificial means of cooling.
NOTE: During preventive maintenance or anytime the ram is removed for dimensional
checks, the seals in the ram seal pack must be changed.
2. The following specifications must apply to both used and reworked rams:
• Ram Straightness-Less than or equal to .0005"
• Ram Roundness-Less than or equal to .0005"

8.10 Rotary Cup Infeed Reset Procedure


This fault energizes the 24 VDC valve. The pneumatic brake activates creating a clutch overload
condition. Sensing the overload condition, the trigger action clutch disconnects the drive sprocket
at the set torque limit. The rotary cup infeed stops.
NOTE: Normal machine travel during a TDC stop is 270° to 300°. Stopping cup infeed imme-
diately overcomes the possibility of another cup dropping into the jam.
The operator turns the bodymaker mode switch to "inch". After clearing the fault, the operator
inches the machine to verify that all scrap has been removed from the tooling area. The operator
pushes "System Reset" to reset the clutch, clear the fault, and de-energize the rotary brake sole-
noid. The clutch/brake access door can be opened and (facing the front of the machine) the clutch
can be turned clockwise manually, to reset the drive pawl.

8.11 Lubrication
1. Check all lubrication points for oil flow. Visually check for oil flowing in the proper direction
through the recirculating lines (heat-exchanger circuit) by noting that the flow is returning back
to sump.
2. With recirculating and high pressure pumps on, recheck the oil level. If necessary, refill to the
top of the sight gauge.

8.23 Operation And Maintenance For Pride Floating Toolpacks


8.23.1 Description
The Pride Toolpack is made up of die holders and spacers to adapt to customer specified die pro-
gressions for the draw and iron operation of the two piece can.
Pride Toolpacks are designed to give the customer a variety of can progressions by simply chang-
ing spacer sizes.
Our designs utilize a die centering system with springs and air that allow movement of the die from
a centered position to any direction the tooling is located during the stroke (ironing). That is, upon
return of the ram, the spring and air system re-center the die before the next can comes through.
Our die modules have built in room to float with the notion to eliminate as much, the possibility of

User Manual Stolle Machinery 21-Jan-13


B6/B7 Bodymaker Page 8-27
Maintenance and Lubrication - 8
can wall thinning when the tooling travels “off center” by allowing the die to center more to the loca-
tion of the punch and not dead center of the Toolpack itself, therefore the can wall thickness should
stay more consistent than if the punch ran off center in a fixed die system.
The Pride Toolpack utilizes pressurized coolant fed to the die drawing surfaces to cool and maintain
a clean, lubricated surface to provide the best draw starting at our lube ring (lube distributor) and
followed in the spacers that are machined with an interior design that helps eliminate turbulence
from the pressurized coolant. Both the air and coolant supplies aid in the removal of any metals that
may become present during the draw and iron operation.

The causes for most malfunctions are obvious to the operator and are easily corrected. However,
the operator should be alert to some hidden problems which may cause the malfunction. The
following examples indicate the types of malfunctions that could occur in the system during an
operational cycle.

9.1 Mechanical Malfunction


9.1.1 Mismatched Tooling
The tooling must be properly matched to make an acceptable product. Punch and die rings must
conform to those shown on the customer tooling chart for the specific punch used.

9.1.2 Alignment
Proper alignment of tooling is essential for uniform can walls.

9.1.3 Lubrication
The machine is lubricated by a closed feed hydrostatic system. The machine will shut down in the
safety shutdown mode if lubrication pressures fall below specified limits or high temperature limits
occur. The reason for the shutdown will be indicated on the operator's console.

9.1.4 Loose Fittings


The machine is equipped with locking devices.However, constant operation and vibration may
cause them to loosen. Keep bolts and fittings tight to prevent machine damage.

9.1.5 Electrical Failures


Electrical failures may occur in relays, solenoids and switches. These failures can be traced by
referring to the electrical schematic.

9.1.6 Common Mechanical Failures


Section 9.6 lists mechanical failures.

9.2 Can Defect Troubleshooting


One of the most effective ways to locate a bodymaker problem is to examine defective cans. The
cans give accurate clues to the source of trouble. The defect may indicate a single malfunction or a
series of interrelated malfunctions.

9.3 Troubleshooting Procedure


The following procedure lists the general steps and the methods used to locate the cause of can
defects:
1. Obtain several good examples of the defective cans.
2. Separate the cans according to the bodymaker that produced them. Use the identification
mark made by the bottom forming die to identify the bodymaker.

User Manual Stolle Machinery 21-Jan-13


B6/B7 Bodymaker Page 9-1
Troubleshooting - 9
3. Estimate the rate of production of defective cans during the sampling period.
4. Separate the cans according to defect type (tear offs, splits, short trim, etc.) for each body-
maker.
5. If all types of defects occur at approximately the same percentages for each bodymaker on the
line, the malfunction is probably not in the bodymakers but rather in something common to all
bodymakers such as the base stock, the die lubrication system, or the cupping press.
6. If a type of defect occurs more often on one of the bodymakers than the others, the malfunc-
tion is probably located in that bodymaker.
7. The location of the defect is very useful in determining the cause. Note the position of the
defect:
a. Relative to height of the can.
b. Relative to the identification mark on the bottom.
c. Relative to the grain direction of the metal.
If the location is consistent in all cans, the machine elements may be the cause for (a) and (b)
and that base stock defects are the cause for (c).
8. Determine if surface blemishes on the base stock are causing the defects made by marking
the blemishes with a felt pen and running the stock through the bodymaker. Examine the can
bottom (which is the original undrawn base stock) to see if any defects in the stock can be cor-
related with defects in the adjacent sidewall.
Use the quality control microscope to examine unexplained defects. Low power magnification may
reveal base stock defects which cannot be seen with the eye alone.

9.4 Can Defects Troubleshooting Illustrations


Operator considerations:
1. The operator must be aware, that as base metals become thinner and machinery speeds
increase, material quality becomes more critical.
2. Laminations, inclusions, gauge variations, out-of-round tooling, and machinery misalignment
can cause tearing of the metal stock and can jams.
3. As troubleshooting becomes more exacting and factual, the operator should request assis-
tance from his foreman and quality control personnel with analysis and documentation of
recurring problems.

10.2 Unloading And Handling

WARNING!
To avoid accidents that could result in injury to personnel and/or damage to equipment and to prevent the
hoisting slings from crushing the electrical control panel and operator's panel crate structures, use a
spreader-bar type hoist fixture.
To avoid accidents that could result in injury to personnel and/or damage to equipment, be sure that the
hoist fitting holes are clean and the hoist fittings are installed properly. If the ADB23106 hoist fitting is used,
torque the cap screws to 87 foot pounds.

CAUTION!
Do not use the shipping pallet to lift the machine.
If a fixture other than the lifting fixture No. 222003111 is used; it must be the spreader bar type.
Sling attachments must be positioned so that the slings will be nearly vertical when the bodymaker is
hoisted.
The sling length and the crane fixture bail must be adjustable.
The bodymaker must be level when hoisted.
To prevent damage to bodymaker components, be sure that the slings do not strike or drag over the
bodymaker.

Refer to bodymaker foundation assembly for details explaining items to be installed prior to
lowering the machine over the tie-down studs in the foundation. All unloading procedures and
subsequent handling of the bodymaker system components are the responsibility of the customer
or his authorized receiving agent.
Stolle Machinery recognizes that most machinery moving organizations have suitable equipment
and established procedures for handling heavy precision equipment such as the bodymaker.
However, because of Stolle Machinery's continuing interest in the equipment and its performance,
the following procedures are suggested:
1. Use an overhead crane to unload the bodymaker equipment package. Be sure to attach slings
to all four corners (See Figure 10-1) of the machine before lifting. Set the package of items
removed from the machine for shipment away from the working area.
2. Remove the polyethylene film wrapping.
3. Leave the flexible electrical cables secured to the bodymaker in the shipping configuration.
4. Install suitable swivel hoist fittings, such as American Drill Bushing Co., part no. ADB23106
(Stolle Part Number 087687), in the four tapped holes on the bodymaker (See Figure 10-1).
5. Rig the crane with a suitable hoisting fixture.
6. Hoist the fixture and position it directly over the bodymaker. Attach the slings to the swivel
hoist fittings. (See Figure 10-2).
