Select an equipment category or submit installed component serial markings for rapid quotation and delivery scheduling.

ISO 10243 die compression springs Series B Feder

Bordignon B Feder compression die springs are manufactured from high-grade Cr-V and Si-Cr alloy spring steel featuring trapezoidal wire profiles for punching, bending and forming tool dies.

Each spring undergoes precise heat treatment, shot-peening surface hardening and hot preset conditioning under load to eliminate relaxation and ensure consistent deflection rates across millions of operational cycles.

Specify die pocket diameter Dh (10–63 mm), guide rod diameter Dd, free length L0 and operational load class.

High-pressure nitrogen gas springs Series CSX, CSG and CSL

Bordignon flagship nitrogen gas cylinders Series CSX, CSG and CSL provide controlled clamping forces up to 200 kN inside solid monolithic steel bodies with no welded joints.

Cylinders feature induction-hardened micro-polished hard chrome rods and built-in active safety systems OPAS against fluid overpressure spikes and OSAS against catastrophic mechanical overstroke.

Specify initial nominal force rating (daN), stroke length and charging port thread specification.

Compact and micro nitrogen gas springs SMLX, SM, SC and EC

Low-profile Bordignon nitrogen gas springs Series SMLX and SM are engineered for stamping dies with restricted shut-height envelopes, delivering substantial stripper forces within minimal dimensions.

Micro-cylinders Series SC and EC starting from 19 mm outer diameter fit into compact piercing die pockets and thin-sheet clamping nests.

Specify shut height, stroke length, mounting flange configuration and maximum operating temperature.

Automotive tooling nitrogen gas springs Series NGS (ISO 11901, VDI 3003)

The specialized Bordignon NGS cylinder series conforms strictly to automotive body stamping tooling specifications under ISO 11901 and VDI 3003 standards.

Units integrate reinforced guide bushings with anti-friction bronze coatings engineered to absorb severe side-load stresses during high-speed deep drawing of automotive outer panels.

Specify automotive standard (VDI/ISO), initial force F0, stroke length and manifold piping connections.

Direct Drive electronic in-die tapping units DTAP System

Bordignon DTAP Direct Drive electronic in-die tapping modules form threads from M2 to M12 directly within stamping dies during press strokes, completely eliminating costly secondary offline machining operations.

The system incorporates programmable direct-drive servomotors, remote touchscreen interfaces and D-TC optical thread integrity checkers.

Specify thread size and pitch, sheet metal thickness, spindle configuration and press strokes per minute.

Pneumatic scrap removers BRE50 and vibrating conveyors RE

Bordignon BRE50 pneumatic transporters and RE vibrating scrap evacuators remove stamping offcuts, slugs and sheet waste out of die cavities through directional tray micro-vibrations.

Powered by standard 4–6 bar plant compressed air without drive belts or motors, the system eliminates jamming hazards from sharp stamping offcuts.

Specify conveyor tray dimensions, scrap mass throughput rate and available air line pressure.

Manifold distribution plates, force stabilizers FSZ and booster systems

Bordignon manifold distribution plates and high-pressure hose networks unite cylinder clusters into synchronized systems with centralized pressure monitoring.

The portfolio includes FSZ force stabilizers to dampen dynamic hydraulic shock at bottom dead center, booster multipliers, VS500 relief valves and 400-bar micro-perforated hoses.

Specify number of cylinder connection ports, system working pressure and fitting thread styles.

Jollycam mechanical and hydraulic in-die cam units

Bordignon Jollycam assemblies convert vertical press slide strokes into lateral or inclined punch motions at angles from 0° to 75° for side piercing and trimming operations.

Mechanisms feature wear-resistant graphite-impregnated self-lubricating bronze wear plates and heavy-duty integrated nitrogen gas springs for smooth return cycles.

Specify cam working angle relative to vertical, punch mount interface width and dynamic punching tonnage.

Identify Bordignon nitrogen gas spring model and specifications

Bordignon manufactures a comprehensive portfolio of nitrogen gas springs for sheet metal dies: Series CSX, CSG, SMLX, SM, NGS and EC. For precise specification, copy the model code and serial number from the cylinder body.

The code defines the product series, nominal initial force F0 and stroke length (e.g. CSX 2400-050). If the markings are worn or obscured, measure the barrel outside diameter, free overall height and piston rod diameter.

ISO 10243 compression die spring selection and engineering

Bordignon B Feder die springs conform to international ISO 10243 standards, guaranteeing complete dimensional interchangeability in die pockets of European and global tooling.

Four parameters are required for selection: hole diameter Dh, guide rod diameter Dd, free length L0 and operational deflection. Color coding identifies the load rating class: from green 1VL for extra light loads up to bronze 6O for hyper heavy-duty stamping operations.

Active safety systems OPAS and OSAS protection

Cylinders in the CSX and CSG series operate at initial nitrogen gas charge pressures up to 200 bar, creating forces of tens of tons. The integrated OPAS system provides controlled pressure relief during extreme internal pressure spikes or excessive thermal expansion.

The OSAS feature deforms the casing during uncontrolled press overstrokes, preventing explosive rod ejection. Certification under PED 2014/68/EU guarantees full compliance with European pressure safety regulations.

Automotive NGS Series and VDI 3003 / ISO 11901 standards

The Bordignon NGS range is dedicated to automotive body tooling, complying with Volkswagen, BMW, Stellantis and Ford engineering standards.

Cylinders incorporate heavy-duty guide bushings with anti-friction bronze coatings that withstand substantial side-load forces during high-speed deep drawing of automotive exterior body panels on modern press transfer lines.

In-die tapping integration with DTAP 4.0 Direct Drive

Bordignon DTAP Direct Drive electronic units eliminate secondary machining by tapping threads from M2 to M12 directly inside stamping dies during press strokes with extreme precision. Programmable servomotors are operated via remote touch screen consoles.

The optional D-TC thread checker automatically verifies thread pitch and depth on every production stroke of the metal stamping line.

Pneumatic scrap removal with BRE50 vibrating conveyors

The Bordignon BRE50 pneumatic transporter replaces bulky belt conveyors, discharging stamping offcuts via directional tray micro-vibrations.

Operating on standard 4–6 bar factory compressed air without belts or motors, the system resists stamping lubricants and prevents mechanical jamming from sharp metal offcuts and heavy stamping scrap.

Manifold distribution plates and FSZ force stabilizers

Connecting nitrogen cylinders via manifold plates ensures synchronized pressure across all clamping contact points, avoiding uneven die loading. FSZ force stabilizers dampen sudden pressure spikes during initial punch contact, extending seal operational life.

Booster pressure multipliers supply localized high-tonnage forces within confined deep-drawing tooling sectors.

Jollycam cam units for inclined and lateral piercing

Bordignon Jollycam assemblies translate vertical press strokes into punch motions at angles between 0° and 75° for piercing and forming. Self-lubricating graphite-impregnated bronze wear plates deliver smooth slider guidance.

Carriage return is driven by heavy-duty integrated nitrogen gas springs engineered for continuous multi-shift production.

Service seal kits and charging hardware

For scheduled cylinder overhauls, we supply genuine polyurethane and FKM fluoropolymer seal kits, rod wipers, digital test gauges, 400-bar high-pressure hoses and standard G 1/8 and M6 gas charging fittings for prompt on-site pressure top-up and preventative maintenance.
