How stamping with Unist works

How does Unist deliver stamping benefits with less fluid? We take a different approach:

The Internally-Fed Difference

Unist’s stock lubrication applicators feature a unique, internally-fed roller design, ensuring uniform and efficient fluid application. They are supplied by a pressurized fluid source and managed through an advanced, programmable fluid controller.

Programmable Fluid Controllers

Programmable fluid controllers are key to controlling the quantity and timing of fluid dispensed in your operation. Depending on your needs, they can do much more. In addition to advanced output control, fluid controllers can monitor critical inputs and trigger emergency shutdowns, integrate controls with press PLC, and store job settings for easy changeovers.

Supplemental & In-Die Spray

Spray nozzles are a great solution for lubricating uneven parts or adding supplemental spray. Our products offer a number of spray types, patterns and adjustment options.

The initial installation was so successful, Fayette upgraded all of their press lines with Unist systems. Fayette reports saving 65% on fluid usage, improved part quality, and heavily reduced janitorial chores due to eliminating fluid run-off.
