Written by Kirstie Ratzer-Farley | June 18, 2019

Formtek is proud to announce the newly redesigned Winpro Screen Express. The Screen Express is Winpro’s automated answer to the inefficient and manual screen process of spline insertion for window screens. Winpro’s technological advancement with the Screen Express raises the industry bar for productivity, efficiency, and cost savings.

Recently Winpro has rolled out several new updates for the Screen Express, providing businesses with a distinct competitive advantage over the competition.

Upgrades and new features include:

  • Belt driven actuator on the bridge replacing the rack and pinion systems.
  • Redesigned pneumatic control systems provide an increased machine response time
  • Even more rigid with the bridge driven on both sides by belt driven actuators
  • Enhanced z-axis positioning with hand wheel and counter simplifies the adjustment and ensures repeatable positioning
  • Inclusion of the most current electrical control technology from B&R Industrial Automation ensures first-class build
  • Updated controls and safety circuitry
  • Improvements to the carriage and spline head actuators ensure smooth travel
  • Automatic frame fixturing is activated by an improved 2D barcode scanning capability, in addition to the existing 1D barcode or FTP download
