Fastener installation press

Northern Precision is continuing to promote the LCM Prima Inserter - a self-clinch sheet-metal fastener installation press for which the company is the exclusive European agent.

"The benefits of the machine are increasingly being recognised by sheet-metal companies of every size", says sales director Steve Smith. With a rating of 6 tonnes the press allows fasteners to be inserted into box-type or C-type workpieces. It will handle materials from 0.5mm to 6.0mm thick. "A range of accessories can transform the machine into a flexible production aid to suit a variety of applications. Northern Precision stocks all appropriate anvil types to meet the various requirements of users", says Steve Smith. The company points out that it can supply an 'e-quote', an email-based direct response mechanism for potential users (sales@npfasteners.com). The e-quote response incorporates interactive links, a short video of the press in action, a pdf attachment that contains details of the machine (including price), and information of the range of accessories
