Elite engineers have long and rich experience in bearings components manufacturing, with particular reference to steel balls. Thanks to a long-term partnership with premium brand machines manufacturer, Elite can offer smart solutions in the worldwide industry for steel balls heading technology, developing unique solutions for bearings and automotive market.
Bearing ball Headers are specially dedicated machines that form ball at extremely high speeds to industrial standards with outstanding quality.
ü Higher speed for High productivity
ü Easy-to-use & quick-change features within reach of the operator, allowing increased production time.
ü Fixed kick-out stroke for faster job change-over and set-up.
ü Less flash required
ü Precise tolerances are maintained throughout high-volume production runs using ball bearing steels.
ü Production runs of a million or more close tolerance ball blanks are common before reworking dies.
ü High Reliability
In the below image there are the main characteristics of the high-speed ball cold headers proposed by Elite, covering the range from 3 to 51 mm ball diameter.

Furthermore, Elite offers qualified and competitive services for refurbishment of used high-speed cold headers for balls (and rollers) from different makers. The overhaul works may include:
· Replacement of basic parts (e.g. lubrication piping, bearings, gears, springs, shafts, belts, etc.);
· Replacement of damaged parts (e.g. cam-punch pusher, bevel gear, level / cut-off lever, lever – punch pusher, etc.);
· Requalification of parts like bed-frame, heading slide, pitman, feed box, eccentric shaft, punch adjust wedge and wrist pin;
· Reconditioning of cam, lever, stock gauge, blank pusher, kick-out, punch pusher and transfer mechanisms.
