Rapid‑Air Tandem Servo Feeds are engineered specifically for applications where thin, delicate, or highly flexible materials require controlled, buckle‑free feeding into a die. By synchronizing two servo feeds—one at the die entrance and one at the exit—the system maintains constant tension on the strip, ensuring smooth, accurate progression even at high production speeds.
This dual‑feed configuration is ideal for materials that would otherwise wrinkle, buckle, or misfeed when pushed by a single servo unit. Rapid‑Air’s simplified, modern servo architecture delivers rugged reliability, fast job changeover, and low maintenance, making these tandem systems a smart choice for precision pressrooms.
