Each machine is designed and tested for specific applications at the request of each client. We pride ourselves in solving the toughest inspection and sorting problems that the average inspection systems cannot handle. Our patented, unique approach to material handling and custom optics allows Attica Automation to surpass the competition in not only speed and accuracy, but also in the versatility that is highly demanded in today’s business environment. We do not believe in a “one solution fits all” approach to the inspection industry. Our systems are engineered to utilize the latest technology in machine vision, laser and eddy current along with the right material handling methods to provide the best possible solution for your inspection and sorting needs. With several styles of systems available, Attica Automation is capable of being your “one stop” provider for inspection, sorting and automation equipment. capable of 24 ton at 100 PPM with a faster PPM count based on the tonnage. AV SERIES – AV stands for Attica Vision. This cutting edge technology uses high end computers and Patented Lens Technology systems to inspect any aspect of any product. AV-B100 is a highly efficient vision inspection machine that primarily focuses on fasteners (screws, nuts, bolts, and washers), but has been designed to be customized to inspect any product. This patented system is Attica Automation’s most popular design, and it is being used all over the world in multiple industries. INSPECTION SYSTEMS: AM SERIES – This series of inspection systems incorporates inspection without using our Attica Vision™ technology. These systems primarily perform inspection with technologies like Eddy Current and Laser Sensors. These systems are also implemented to manually create/inspect parts based on the design needs. Each one of these systems is built for custom material depending on the specific needs of the product. AM-NL is an example of one of the many AM series machines. It creates nuts with a top locking feature, double sided locking feature, and triple sided locking features. This machine is AV-D100 – This machine was built off the AV-B100 platform as it also uses the Attica Vision™ technology for inspection.

Whether you are looking for a simple conveyor or a turn-key packaging system, we have the product lines available to meet your needs. “Under Promise Over Deliver” August 2014/Fastener Technology International 99 Q. What changes do you foresee in the engineered fastener industry? A. Cliff Bernard - Any distributor in business has to face the daily challenge of warehouse and inventory management. This has always been the challenge to operating a successful distribution business. Too much inventory ties up critical operating capital and too little results in losing a customer to the competition. As we move into the next few years, our industry is going to become more and more transparent and competition will become more intense. Distributors will need to leverage inventories that are not located in their proprietary warehouses. They will need to leverage partner warehouse inventories and or virtual inventories to reduce costs and remain competitive in the preservation of their customer base. I believe that Bay Supply Net will be a vital partner to distributors by providing more products and services to help them serve their customers while freeing capital for strategic growth initiatives. If their customer calls for an item they don’t stock and it’s readily available in our warehouse to ship, there is no reason that that distributor should lose that sale to a competitor. Q. What is Bay Supply Net and what makes it unique? A. Bernard - Bay Supply Net is the world’s largest online engineered fastening warehouse, offering real-time inventory and blind shipping services for wholesale industrial distributors worldwide. Michael Eichinger - And it’s unique because we have established a global network of engineered fastener product manufacturers including top brand names that are of the highest industry demand. These manufacturers feed our warehouse to 100 Fastener Technology International/August 2014 serve the wholesale distribution marketplace with real-time inventory and blind drop shipping services. Bay Supply Net is the first electronic warehousing marketplace to serve the wholesale distributors with complete order management processing and tracking for their customer service staff. On top of that, there is the added benefit of same day free domestic shipping on orders received by 3:00PM EST and instant international shipping upon checkout The Bay Supply Net portal also provides “Distributor Friendly” tools to help manage, track and process orders. For example, the system maintains a ship-to-address book and a customer re-order list so distributors can quickly process repeat orders. In addition, the system accepts future delivery dates and back order items with expediting dates and communications. Tracking numbers, order information, order history and accounting are instantly available for multiple users at each distributor’s operation. Q. Have centralized supply chains changed the industry? A. Bernard - Centralized supply chains have yet to change the industrial supply industry. It is inevitable that the Internet will play a vital role in this transformation. It is also clear that manufacturers will need to welcome technology and the new business models that emerge from this new transformation of their industry. Distributors will need to re-invent the way they conduct business. The opportunity exists for distributors to capitalize on centralized supply chains like Bay Supply Net by exponentially increasing their product offerings and enhancing their services to their customers with no capital investment of any kind. What better way is there to hedge the market position of your business for the future? Q. What makes this the right time to unveil Bay Supply Net? A. Eichinger - At a time when new technologies within this electronic age have reengineered nearly every industry and the way business is transacted, the industrial supply chain distribution processes of today is inefficient, costly, and time consuming. Manufacturers continue to reduce inventories while projecting the financial burden onto their distributors. Customers want speed and efficiency in product procurement and distributors must meet these challenges in an increasingly competitive marketplace. Distributors need speed and efficiency to better serve their customers. Most importantly, distributors need greater access to inventory and pricing to serve the immediate needs of their customer or someone else will. Bay Supply Net eliminates the capital requirement for distributors to increase their inventories. A distributor can place their staff in control of millions of dollars in real-time inventory; gain instant access to top brands their customers want; eliminate the need for fax and email quote requests; and access instant and competitive pricing along with free blind drop shipping and discount international shipping services. This service transforms their business overnight by establishing a powerful online tool for their staff to better serve their customers and increase their sales and bottom line. Did I mention the service is free? Q. Is there a region or marketplace that Bay hopes to reach that it might not have been able to reach before? A. Bernard - International shipping has been one of the greatest challenges for our industry. We are excited to introduce a cost effective international shipping program that provides instant pricing and processing upon checkout with identical ease of a domestic ship-to address. We believe this will help our distributors to rapidly increase their global sales and introduce some highly desirable brands to many untapped markets. Q. What has been the greatest challenge with the introduction of Bay Supply Net? offerings, and to gather the necessary product specifications to effectively bring those products to the distribution marketplace online. Q. What is the importance of blind shipping? A. Bernard - Bay Supply Net is a “Supply Net” for distributors to better serve their customers. We must remain as an invisible partner to our distributors. We serve them as an invaluable resource for product procurement and as a logistics service. This is done by blind drop shipping every order. Our service can only be valuable to a distributor if it improves his or her customer’s perception of his or her service and business. We only exist to make other businesses look better and operate more efficiently. This can only happen if we are invisible in the process to the end user. This is why blind drop shipping is critical to our success. Q. What does it cost a distributor to be a part of Bay Supply Net? A. Bernard - Our service is free. Distributors receive a complete service, technical support staff, a warehouse full of top brand inventories, free shipping services to domestic customers, and quantity discount wholesale pricing free of charge. Q. How quickly can a distributor see results from joining? A. Bernard - The results are instant! Once a distributor signs into his or her account, they have instant access to inventory, pricing and order management. They can begin processing orders in minutes. Q. How can distributors sign up for an account? A. Eichinger - All that a distributor needs to do is to call 1-800-718-8818, email [email protected], or visit our website at www.baysupplynet.com to complete an online application. Once approved, each distributor receives a login and password for their account with immediate access to inventory. It’s that simple. A. Eichinger - I think the greatest challenge we face is the ability to electronically introduce new products and inventory to our wholesale distributors online as fast as they are being delivered and introduced to our warehouse. We currently have hundreds of engineered fastening product manufacturers and other industrial supply manufacturers submitting products and inventories to integrate and offer to our distributors. While we are thrilled to have such a reception by our industry, it is a challenge to carefully investigate each manufacturer, select the appropriate products to integrate in our inventory August 2014/Fastener Technology International 101 Beneke Wire Company 5540 National Turnpike Louisville, KY 40214 USA Toll-Free: +1 877 423 6353 • Tel: +1 502 367 6434 Fax: +1 502 363 1837 Web Site: www.benekewire.com E-Mail: [email protected] MISSION STATMENT: TODAY AND THE FUTURE: David Beneke succeeded his father as president of the company in 1983. With 46 years of service, David recently retired and named Ken Downs president. Ken has a degree in metallurgical engineering from the University of Kentucky and over thirty years of experience with Beneke Wire Company. Teamwork is the key ingredient in the “Beneke attitude,” everyone working for a common goal, the success of the customer, plus a shared pride in the quality of the end product. COMPANY HISTORY: Over forty-six years ago, Chuck Beneke had a vision. He believed there was a strong demand for high-quality, custom produced aluminum wire. He was certain customers would respond to the idea of aluminum wire manufactured to fit their specific requirements. He was right. In 1968 this wire pioneer joined with his son, J.David Beneke and founded Beneke Wire Company. Beneke Wire Company started producing small orders of extremely high-quality aluminum wire. Great attention was paid to the alloy, the finish and the rigid tolerances. More importantly, the company worked to produce wire that would improve their customers’ production process. By creating the right treatment or finish, Beneke Wire customers could possibly eliminate certain steps in their manufacturing, thus making a better end product at reduced production costs. This “partnership” between the Beneke engineering staff and the customer is a key ingredient to the success of the entire operation. 102 Michael and Steve Beneke have been named co-chairmen of the board of directors, assuring continuity within the company for years to come. They also continue in their current management capacity. The same core values established by Chuck Beneke over 46 years ago have been passed on to this successful team of company management. Beneke Wire Company continues to grow. With more than 200,000 square feet of manufacturing space, Beneke provides aluminum wire to a worldwide market. PRODUCTS: Fastener Technology International/August 2014 Beneke Wire Company offers the most complete range of aluminum wire products on the market to an international customer base. All major aluminum alloys, both heat treatable and non-heat treatable, in a variety of tempers and drawn to exacting tolerances are available. When you order wire from Beneke, you get more than a coil of wire. You receive the highest level of experience and pride in every package. SERVICES OFFERED: With growth such as experienced at Beneke, come new challenges and a search for new knowledge. This search is the function of the technical department at Beneke. Customers receive metallurgical and engineering services unsurpassed anywhere in the industry, including product analysis, inspection and testing of raw materials and trial orders. Also available is Beneke’s participation in the PPAP program as required by the customer. All of this support is designed to ensure that the end product performs as intended. QUALITY: The “Beneke attitude”, the company’s partnership approach, along with its vision and the effort of it’s employees has helped make Beneke Wire a qualified IOS 9001-2000 company.

Our mission is to provide state of the art, easy to use machinery for the production of simple as well as complex parts. We have made a point of continuing the company founder’s tradition of providing high productivity, reliable, affordable and long-lasting equipment. COMPANY HISTORY: His father was Italian, but he was born in New York in 1907 and returned to Italy with his family when he was 8 years old. His father served in the Italian Army during World War 1. He started his own Company in 1939 with the purpose of building mechanical descalers to process hot rolled rod. A few thousands of these machines have been sold all over the world. Although these machines were successful, Carlo Salvi’s aim was to manufacture new and more complex machines. His new adventure began in the late 40’s with the design and production of a flat die thread roller, machines that have established immediately for good quality and affordable price. Very soon this was followed by a family of head slotters and finally, in 1952, he built his first single die two blow toggle header. The success was immediate. The machine was reliable, low-priced and high speed. In the early 70’s a complete new line of single-die high speed models was designed for the production of semi-tubular and fully tubular rivets. These machines literally revolutionized the market. In fact Carlo Salvi machines allow to produce up to 660 parts per minute with very low production costs. In the early 80’s, Carlo Salvi developed a new machine range of 2-die 4-blow and progressive headers, up to six stations. During the 90’s, Carlo Salvi continued investing in the development of new machines in order to build cold headers with innovative electronic systems designed to provide the highest levels of performance output. Presently, Carlo Salvi is offering a complete range of cold headers up to 6 stations, capable of handling wire from 0,6 to 24 mm in diameter, and with the ability to process materials such as stainless steel, titanium and special alloys in combination with induction pre-heating. MANUFACTURING PROGRAM: 1-die 2-blow headers This kind of headers allows to head up to six diameters of material and offers the possibility to produce components with quite complex shapes. Their main features are the high speed and precision to head screws, semi tubular rivets even with a shouldered shank and tubular rivets, granting a remark- Single die double blow header model CS 005 able tool life and an easy manintenance. 2-die 4-blow headers These headers allow to obtain components with complex shapes which cannot easily produced on multi station machines, where it is necessary to transfer the part several times, because the shank is very short or the head too big. The components which can be obtained are screws, shaped semi tubular rivets and tubular rivets with large head. Progressive headers The progressive headers allow to produce with high precision special parts with very complex shapes, which are used in various fields of the market and particularly in the automotive and in the aerospace industries With thousands of machines sold all over the world, Carlo Salvi has become a leading supplier of machines for the fasteners industry.

Ltd. Product Without Surface Coating Withstands 3,500~15,000 Hour Salt Spray Test and 35~70 Kesternich (Acid Rain Test). Innovative stainless steel material screw that surpasses this century’s highest corrosion-resistant stainless steel screw and excels in drilling performance. Traditional stainless steel (Abbr.: S.S.) screws have many drawbacks: 1) A2~A4 (the #300 Series) S.S. products have good corrosion resistance and shiny/reflective surface appearance; however, the biggest drawback is the lack of hardness. 2) S.S. #410, #420, #430F, #440 products achieve higher hardness through heat treatment, however, they are poor in corrosion resistance. These products have imperfect/dull outer appearance. 3) S.S. #630 (17-4) is a material which has both high corrosion-resistance and high hardness; however, this material cannot cold-form and is very difficult to work with. S.S. #630 is only suitable for hot-forming and machining. S.S. #630 production cost is very high; due to these reasons S.S. #630 is not normally used in screw production. The MOST PERFECT Stainless Steel NSSC #550 (JOHN TEK) screw encompasses super corrosionresistance, high surface hardness (HV 618°~648°) and brilliant surface appearance (as good as S.S. A2~A4). The new NSSC #550 is a difficult material to cold-form and to work; originally, this material is poor in corrosion-resistance. John Chen Screw dedicated sixteen and a half years, and invested over 2.5 million US Dollars in research and development solely to discover and fine-tune the know-how to work with NSSC #550. After years of relentless hard work and improvements, John Chen solved NSSC #550 production bottleneck and achieved perfect corrosionresistance performance. NSSC #550 screws are now in mass production. NSSC #550 screw gained an excellent reputation in the TEK (selfdrilling screw) market in terms of screw performance, time-saving, easy-to-use and reliability. NSSC #550 screws are gradually replacing Bi-Metal screws and S.S #410 screws in the market. Serious setbacks with Bi-Metal screws in the market are: 1) Insufficient for drilling through stainless steel sheets. 2) Unable to drill through 10mm thick (or above) steel sheet. 3) 4~8% breakage/failure rate while drilling due to poor weld spot, hence increases in screw cost and labor-time cost. 4) Bi-Metal screw corrosion resistance is only at 1/8th of NSSC #550 screws. 5) Bi-Metal screw tensile and torque strength is only at approximately 45% of NSSC #550 screws. 6)Small size or short length Bi-Metal screws cannot be produced. This limits Bi-Metal screw applications. In summary, NSSC #550 (JOHN TEK) screw price and application/ construction-labor cost are much lower than Bi-Metal screws and NSSC #550 (JOHN TEK) screw will not fail during application. John Chen Screw has developed more than NSSC #550 self-drilling screws and self-tapping screws; NSSC #550 is also used in a whole variety of customized screw products.

Headquartered in Somerset, NJ, Rotor Clip also has operations in Sheffield, England, Idstein, Germany, The Czech Republic, and Shanghai, China - providing worldwide service to its customers. The Somerset, USA facility occupies 280,000 square feet on 24 acres. All processes are conducted in house ensuring the quality and reliability of the products produced. These processes include engineering, which designs the tooling required to produce retaining rings, tool and die making, stamping and wire forming, heat treating, postfinishing, packaging, warehousing and shipping. PRODUCT LINE: Rotor Clip is the only manufacturer in the world offering all three major types of retaining rings: tapered, constant section and spiral. These are made to inch, DIN, ANSI metric and JIS standards in carbon steel, stainless steel and beryllium copper. Unlike other companies we don’t claim one retaining ring is better than another. Rather, it’s about your application and what you need to make it work. With the help of Rotor Clip engineers, you’ll find the one retaining ring that works best for you, rather than the one that’s best for us to sell you. Rotor Clip military retaining rings are also available, manufactured to military specifications under Cage Code 07382. Stainless steel parts for military need to be made from PH15-7 stainless material, which Rotor Clip can provide. This material is not readily available in Europe and the Pacific Rim, limiting the ability of other sources to provide certified rings to their customers. MS parts made from High Carbon Spring Steel are also available; manufactured domestically, and processed from Rotor Clip’s extensive catalog of tooled parts. Finishes include: Cadmium; Zinc Dichromate, and Phosphate. Stainless steel and beryllium copper parts have been certified as domestically melted by raw material suppliers for purposes of DFARS 252.225-7014, “Preference for domestic specialty metals.” Certifications are provided Free of Charge. Rotor Clip also offers single turn, multi turn, and nested wave springs. A wave spring is made from coiled flat wire with waves added to give it a spring effect. Wave springs are superior to coil springs in certain applications because they provide lower work heights with the same force. This not only provides for space savings, but also smaller assemblies that use less materials, hence lower production costs. THE GREEN FASTENER: Using Rotor Clip retaining rings in place of threaded fasteners where appropriate reduces scrap and hazardous waste caused by machining shoulders and use of excess cutting fluids. Our wave springs provide lower work heights than coil springs with the same force – resulting in smaller assemblies that use less material. Rotor Clip products can be produced to meet the requirements of the RoHS and ELV directives. QUALITY: Rotor Clip is dedicated to providing customers with a part that exceeds standard specifications. This includes providing documentation showing critical quality, material & heat treating specs, as well as lot traceability and country of origin.

SFTC develops, markets and supports the DEFORM™ System, which is used at hundreds of sites world-wide. The SFTC staff has extensive experience in developing FEM (Finite Element Method) software to analyze metal forming processes. SFTC principals developed ALPID and DEFORM during the 1980’s while at Battelle Memorial Institute. ALPID is known as the first practical FEM-based analysis tool with an industrial user base. ALPID was followed by DEFORM, which SFTC acquired from Battelle in 1991. PRODUCT: DEFORM is an engineering software system used to analyze metal manufacturing processes including forming, heat treatment, machining and mechanical joining. It provides a virtual trial run environment that allows testing on the computer rather than the shop floor. It has been used to solve metal forming problems, optimize production processes and improve tool and die life in countless industrial cases. DEFORM is the most widely used bulk forming process simulation system in the world. It serves the aerospace, automotive, transportation, energy, medical, fastener and ordinance industries. Hundreds of companies, ranging from large multi-national corporations to small family-owned businesses, rely on DEFORM throughout the design, development and manufacturing process. Noteworthy technical and commercial milestones started with the introduction of DEFORM-2D, the first code with fully automatic remeshing, in 1989. DEFORM-PC, released in 1994, was the first metal forming simulation software running on WINDOWS. This made it feasible for small-to-medium sized manufacturers to use simulation. Within a few years, DEFORM-3D, running on WINDOWS, with fully automatic remeshing made simulation practical for most forming processes. Heat treatment and grain size material modeling was developed more than 15 years ago, before it became trendy. Design Of Experiments (DOE) and optimization of the entire process has been under development for years. The release of DEFORM V11 in 2014 represented a new milestone in process simulation technology. Considered the “next generation” of DEFORM, V11 is a quantum leap in functionality, resulting from years of research and development. It includes an integrated multiple operation environment that has allowed DOE, optimization and advanced material modeling tools to become a reality. EXPERIENCE: The SFTC staff has over 5 decades of experience in industry. The result is a first-hand understanding of the issues faced by users. This experience contributes to practical DEFORM developments and unparalleled technical support. The DEFORM team is highly focused on contributing to the success of every DEFORM user. SFTC is known and respected in academia, government and industry. The vast majority of the development staff holds a PhD or Master’s degree from leading universities. SFTC is a regular participant in sophisticated research projects. Staff members are also regular contributors to technical conferences, journals and educational workshops. NEW DEVELOPMENTS: SFTC has been the leader in process simulation for decades. The company has maintained that position by being first to the market with new capabilities. Today, SFTC is the undisputed leader in DOE, optimization and material modeling. We are already working on capabilities that will mature years from now. The objective of DEFORM development is to simulate the entire process chain, from raw material to final part. This will allow manufacturing history to be accounted for in end-product life predictions, resulting in products that thrive in service and in the market. GLOBAL DISTRIBUTION: SFTC is located in Columbus, Ohio and has a global distribution network of highly qualified distributors. The company also collaborates with leading universities world-wide in Europe, Asia and North America. Please visit the DEFORM website for details.

Our company was founded in 1979 by Tony Baker and remains family-owned. Headquartered in Akron, OH, Advanced Poly-Packaging has a satellite office in England; inside and outside sales professionals; and distributors in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Denmark. All of our products are made in the USA. Buying a machine off a shelf is rarely the answer. Packagers know that it takes ingenuity and patience to engineer the right solution. In fact, most of the solutions we provide involve a degree of customization to match your application. PRODUCT LINES: What do you bag? Washers, cotter pins or wheel nuts? How about machine screws, rivets or lock nuts? Anchors, flange bolts or drywall nails? Those represent only a fraction of the fastener products that are being packaged in Advanced Poly-Bags™ with the company’s bagging machines. Our line of tabletop baggers prove that size really does not matter. These machines are loaded with features, including a built-in inline thermal transfer printer on the T-375, featuring “Next Bag Out” technology that virtually eliminates mislabeled bags. The tabletop models are usually best for smaller quantities. Larger amounts may require a production bagger, such as the T-1000 Advanced Poly-Bagger™. The T-1000 is fast, versatile, rugged and cost effective. It can be the central component of a kit packaging system, for example. Some fastener manufacturers need one of our vibratory parts counters, a net-weigh scale or a check-weigh scale (we recently developed one system that contains all three!) in addition to infeed or takeaway conveyors. Custom bags are our specialty: Printed or non-printed; special features such as vent, hang or pin holes; headers; perforations, etc. We also have dozens of stock sizes of Advanced Poly-Bags™, ready for shipment almost immediately. Many fastener packagers are interested in some of our specialty films for bag production, including high strength, tinted and 100% degradable. Advanced Poly-Packaging also offers blanket pricing to enjoy locked in pricing and a flexible shipping schedule to they never run out of bags.

Founded in 1986, Rolling Tools has reached a position of great prestige over the years as manufacturer of cylindrical, flat and planetary thread rolling dies. The high quality of our products and the ability to meet the ever growing demands of our customers are the elements that have characterised our history of success. To address the increasing challenges of a global marketplace, Rolling Tools has placed great emphasis on the innovation of its production processes and products, by combining continuous investments in the latest CNC machinery with the expertise and experience that make up its organisational structure. For over twenty-five years, Rolling Tools products have been synonymous of high quality threads to be used in the automotive, aerospace, railway and petrochemical industries. OUR PRODUCTS RANGE: Cylindrical Rolls: in-feed, anular, helical, fast through-feed, knurling and special (lapping rolls, for pulleys, for worm screws etc.) rolls. Flat Rolling Dies: for machine screw, special thread forms, MAThread® and MATpoint®. Planetary dies: for machine screw, special thread forms, SRS Planetary dies. RE-GRINDING SERVICE: Rolling Tools offers the regrinding service for its entire range of products. As all tools produced by Rolling Tools are core- hardened, they can be reground several times by recreating the profile required and, if necessary, by applying a new surface treatment with very fast execution and delivery. selection of suitable material for each tool means success in its final application. The heat treatment process is considered fundamental and distinctive in the construction of tools that ensure high performance over time. Rolling Tools is active in the research and development of heat treatments that make it possible to enhance the features (core hardness, toughness and wear resistance) of the selected materials. Moreover, thanks to the application of the latest coatings technologies, we have defined the most suitable surface treatments in accordance with materials used in customer applications, such as stainless steels, low carbon steels, titanium and special alloys. Our treatments make it possible to increase surface hardness up to suitable depths and protect tools from premature wear. QUALITY THROUGH RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT: PROFILES & GEOMETRY: Rolling Tools produces high-quality threading dies through a consolidated and innovative production process, in which all phases are characterised by utmost accuracy and precision, as they are subject to continuous strict controls. Process planning and control ensures steady and rapid communication between company departments to provide timely responses to customers. For each tool made, both new and reground, Rolling Tools ensures full traceability over time for each stage of the process by means of appropriate marking. Rolling Tools has obtained the UNI EN ISO 9001:2008 Quality Certification. Our manufacturing system, through the grinding process, takes place thanks to modern CNC machines supported to CAD/CAM systems that ensure maximum repeatability and consistency over time. For the entire range of products, Rolling Tools can manufacture main profile (ISO, UNF, UNJ, MJ, etc.), special threads based on a customer’s design in addition to being authorised manufacturers of MAThread® and MATpoint®. For all of its tools, Rolling Tools offers the possibility of Standard and special RRO (Radiused Root Runout), based on the customer’s application. A proper RRO allows to evenly distribute the forces exerted and to reduce tensions thus increasing the service life of the tool. Rolling Tools is a reliable/skilled partner of customers ensuring high quality products and performance. MATERIALS & TREATMENTS: Rolling Tools selects and uses high-speed steels (AISI M2 and AISI M42) and special alloys (HQC) from the leading European steel mills.

Therefore the machines are designed to maximize production times and reduce down time for set ups and change over, as well as allowing an operator freedom to manage multiple jobs. For this reason the machines are automated and motorized in order to avoid the use of tools as much as possible and increase the efficiency and precision of adjustments. All the rails are motorized as well as the die match and both dies are clamped hydraulically. All these facts are controlled by a touch screen where you are able to store job numbers into the memory and recall when needed with all set up dimensions. The display may include an integrated process monitor. SASPI has motorized the die block so you can adjust the diameter, with high precision, just pressing the screen, saving a lot of manual work and time. This feature makes SASPI machines the fastest machines in changeover. Apart from thread rollers SASPI has a range of high quality products as their well known MPA high-speed shave pointers. These elements can be combined together to form complex machines like thread rollers with pointers, washer assembly units, stud selectors or induction heaters. The MPA-14 automatic pointing machine is a very reliable, easy to use high speedy pointer. It is fully motorized (centring, rails, top rail, spindle head...). One of the greatest features is that every part is held as close to the end as possible during the pointing, facing or drilling process regardless of the length. So we avoid the vibrations at maximum and we gain precision and finishing quality of the part. This is a unique feature of SASPI machines. Recently we have introduced a process control system in our pointers that measures the amperage that is using the machine all the time. So we can control if something goes wrong in a part or if the inserts are worn-out. HISTORY: Talleres SASPI, SA is a company founded in 1961 in Azkoitia by seven partners. The name SASPI is derived from “zazpi” (seven in Basque). It is a company that since its inception it has clear that local and national market was not his goal. The true potential of their machines sales was abroad. Although been a humble company, it was a pioneer in machine tool exports abroad and outside Europe, overcoming all the problems they had at the time. It was a company belonging to a market that in Spain had virtually no competitors and worldwide were few companies competing on the same level and dare to export. In 1986 the company changed management, which further boosted exports and increased the range of products, thus covering the needs of all types of manufacturers of screws. With the new support, the company was again among the market leaders. SASPI has machines in more than 15 countries. The last few years, and to overcome the introduction of new industries to market SASPI chose to increase the quality and technology of machines to excel in the market and most elite specialized industries such as automotive and aerospace. These industries are very strong and powerful industries where part quality matters more than price. ACTIVITY: SASPI, a company located in the municipality of Azkoitia, since its inception in the 60s, has evolved constantly adapting to market needs. Proof of this has been the move from being a small manufacturer of machinery, to actually be a leader in manufacturing machinery for sectors such as aerospace and automotive. In this long should be noted the special attention SASPI intended to: • Get the best quality. • Innovate with new product development and application of cutting edge technology. • Competitive pricing. SASPI always has been committed to the internationalization of the company, getting a presence on five continents through its extensive sales network. SASPI is characterized by its aim of offering customers the best service possible focusing its efforts on continuous research of new technologies that allow them to develop innovative products that differentiate us from the competitors, besides studying the needs of the client to determine with certainty the processes and equipment that best suit their needs. For this purpose SASPI has a fully equipped R & D department which works in achieving these goals and has emerged as the key determinant of its progressive growth.

Spiral rings offer a 360° retaining surface and are interchangeable with standard stamped ring grooves. Spiral retaining rings require no special tooling for removal and have No Ears to Interfere® with the assembly. Flat wire wave springs reduce heights by up to 50% while offering the same force and deflection as standard coil springs. Wave springs fit in tight radial and axial spaces. With over 10,000 standard parts to select from, all Smalley parts are available in carbon and stainless steel off the shelf. Special parts can range from .200” to 120” in diameter. There are No-Tooling-Charge™ on specials. Exotic alloys are readily available. ABOUT SMALLEY: For over 50 years, Smalley has manufactured retaining rings and wave springs using our unique coiling technology. Smalley has become established as the top manufacturer of spiral retaining rings and flat wire wave springs. Smalley is ISO 9001, ISO/TS 16949, AS9100 and ISO 14001 certified. 144 PRODUCTS: Wave/Compression Springs: Smalley Wave Springs (Flat Wire Compression Springs) offer the unique advantage of space savings when used to replace coil springs. By reducing spring operating height, wave springs also produce a decrease in the spring cavity. With a smaller assembly size and less material used in the manufacturing process, a cost savings is realized. Wave springs operate as load bearing devices. They take up play and compensate for dimensional variations within assemblies. A virtually unlimited range of forces can be produced whereby loads build either gradually or abruptly to reach a predetermined working height. This establishes a precise spring rate in which load is proportional to deflection. Spirolox® Retaining Rings: Spirolox Retaining Rings, available exclusively from Smalley, have No Ears To Interfere® with the mating components in the assembly. Spiral rings offer a 360° retaining surface, require no special tooling for removal and are interchangeable with ordinary snap ring grooves. Constant Section Rings: Constant Section Rings are often specified for heavy duty or impact loading applications. Smalley offers eight series of rings from stock in over 1,000 sizes. Fastener Technology International/August 2014 Laminar Sealing Rings: A Smalley Laminar Sealing Ring is a metallic labyrinth seal consisting of multiple rings in a groove. This arrangement of the rings and the specific orientation of the rings are dictated by the application and the severity of the environment. MANUFACTURING PROCESS: Smalley offers an exclusive Circular-Grain® Process. This process is not a stamping, but rather a continuous coil that is made from edge-wound, pre-hardened, spring-tempered flat wire. The flat wire has a grain structure that is linear, providing exceptional strength and dimensional stability. Smalley’s unique manufacturing process reduces scrap allowing for the economical production of special alloy products including a large selection of stainless steel retaining rings and wave springs.
