 Model
136
and 136A
Bench
Top
Press
Numberall
manufactures
an economical
range of
bench top
presses.
Bench top
mounting
saves valuable
floor space
and keeps
larger
presses
free for
other work.
The bench
top presses
are available
in Hand-Operated (Model 136),
Air-Operated (Model 136A)
and Motorized (Model
137)
versions.
- Small,
Light & Compact
- Easily
mounted
on a workbench
- Designed
for marking
name plates
and other
flat objects
Operation
The Model
136 is hand-operated.
By manually
pulling the
lever, a
cam is rotated
to create
the stamping
force. The
table would
be adjusted
so that when
the cam rotates
to high cam
position,
minimal effort
is required
to mark the
part.
The
Model 136A
uses
an air-cylinder
to generate
its power.
A hand-operated
lever valve
is pulled
toward the
operator.
This causes
the ram to
move down
to stamp
the part.
Once stamped
the lever
valve is
released,
the ram then
moves to
the home
position.
The Model
136A is a
very simple,
low
maintenance
press with
very few
moving parts.
In fact,
we do not
recommend
any spare
parts for
this machine!
The Model
136A can
also be adjusted
so that any
part thickness
within the
stroke range
can be stamped
without height
adjustment.
By simply
adjusting
the air pressure,
the press
will stamp
to a certain
depth. Essentially
the press
will “stall
out”,
but will
not damage
the part
or press
components
because the
air pressure
is lower
than standard.
An acme
screw and
nut, attached
below the
cast table,
regulate
depth of
stamping.
A separate
guide rod
helps align
the table.
By turning
the acme
nut you can
raise or
lower the
table for
depth adjustment.
The presses
feature a
short safe
3/16” stroke,
negating
the need
for external
guarding.
The Model
136A can
be equipped
with an optional
two-hand
trip. Numberall’s
standard
dovetail
shank allows
quick changing
of marking
devices.
The same
dovetail
is used in
all of Numberall’s
presses as
well as the
Model 116
Dovetail
Adapter.
Construction & Parts
The
Models 136,
136A and
137 use the
same base
casting.
Numberall's
presses are
husky,
cast iron
"C"
frames for
distortion-free stamping
with a smooth,
static non-impact marking
force. No
die cast
parts are
used. Many
imported
presses are
made using
round column
construction
with a spring
release marking
force, which
may result
in a harsh
impact shock.
The
large quick-change
dovetail
ram evenly
distributes
the marking
force across
the marking
device frame,
with minimal part
and marking
device stress.
Clearances
and pressures
are the
same for
each
model.
Compatibility
A variety
of marking
devices can
be installed
in the presses,
depending
on part
thickness
and character
capacity
requirements.
