Guill Tool, a global manufacturer of extrusion tooling, has introduced its new reciprocating head. Such tubing is typically used in wound drain operations and other medical applications.

全球挤压工具制造商吉尔工具公司推出了其新型往复头。这种管子通常用于伤口引流手术和其他医疗应用。

The traditional tip and die assembly has been replaced with a linear reciprocating assembly that changes the tube’s profile within a given length. This process is repeated throughout a single extrusion run without interruptions. Cutting capability, in association with the extrusion speed, cuts the finished product to length. .

传统的尖端和模具组件已被线性往复组件所取代，该组件可在给定长度内改变管子的轮廓。这个过程在整个挤出过程中重复进行，没有中断。切割能力与挤压速度相关，可将成品切割至一定长度。。

While cost and value stream activities are reduced, quality is improved. Only one extrusion run is needed to produce a finished product, as opposed to multiple extrusion runs with tooling changes along with a manual assembly operation to connect different tubing shapes.

在降低成本和价值流活动的同时，提高了质量。生产成品只需要一次挤出运行，而不是多次挤出运行，随着工具的变化以及手动组装操作来连接不同的管材形状。

Guill’s new reciprocating head eliminates an entire assembly operation. It also eliminates in-process inventory. There is no need for storage of various tubing shapes and connectors needed for assembly, fulfillment of orders, and replenishment of finished goods.

吉尔的新往复头消除了整个装配操作。它还消除了在制品库存。无需储存组装、订单履行和成品补充所需的各种管材形状和接头。

The new reciprocating head eliminates a connecting piece and allows JIT production and products made-to-order. It also reduces the total run time from receiving the order to shipping.

新的往复头消除了连接件，允许JIT生产和产品定制。它还减少了从接收订单到发货的总运行时间。
