Taumel, the pioneer of Orbital Headforming, is proud to present its renowned machines and equipment. The range of equipment was designed to combine the best in today's technology with the high quality and precision which you expect from Taumel.

    The streamlined design lends itself to modern manufacturing methods and allows high performance equipment to be built at competitive prices.

    Taumel Orbital Headforming is a noiseless radial forming and fastening system which replaces conventional riveting, staking, spinning, hammering, pressing, peening, rolling, welding, upsetting and cold heading operations - all with one machine.

    Taumel orbital headforming machines use speedily changed single or Multi-Spindle Taumel heads to hold forming tools at a constant angle. The tools orbit a stationary work piece but do not spin. As the tools follow their orbital path, their tips press on the work piece on a line radiating from its center. With all of the pressure applied on this line a flowing wave of material forms ahead of the orbiting tool.

    The material has time to flow properly because only a minute quantity is displaced during each spindle revolution ... as friction is minimal, no tearing of the work piece occurs. This results in a clean, polished, non-porous surface on the formed material. There is no measurable change in molecular structure - rivet heads, joints and flanges of maximum strength are created.
