Ruoff Standard Edge Notcher
Item CodeRUEN
Brand Ruoff & Sons, Inc. Depth 12 in Manufacturer Ruoff & Sons, Inc. Width 18 in Capacity 16 Ga Height 50 in Weight 120 lbs - Conklin stocks Slot notch as standard.
Available with Slot Notch or V Notch pattern.
Variable Depths from 1/8" to 7/8"
Variable Spacing of 5/8" to 1 1/8"
Speed: From 20 feet per minute (240 punches per minute) up
Centers of notches are adjustable up to 1 1/8" max.
Depth of notch is adjustable up to 7/8" max.
Still made in the USA, this little machine has been around unchanged for many decades. It's power-driven, feeds automatically, and notches the full depth of the metal edge as a V or Slot pattern with a capacity of notching 16 ga Galvanized and 20 ga Stainless. The depth of V is 7/8" but the machine comes with 1/8" spacers which allow the shop to notch shorter depths - 3/4", 5/8", 1/2" and 1/4". The Slot Notch, because it's thinner, has a max depth of 3/4" and also comes with 1/8" spacers. The machine is available in two models, a standard model and a non-ring feed-wheel model. The former is the most common to air conditioning contractors, and the latter is used to sign companies. The difference between the two models is the encapsulated rubber cord on the special feed wheel which allows the notched material to remain smooth, unmarred, and without serrated impressions. For HVAC Duct Shops the standard model machine is used in tandem with a 7-station rollformer that runs the 3 in 1 profile - specifically the 5/8" Outside Tap (aka Hammerlock or T Connection). The Rollformer always rollforms the profile before running the notches in a Ruoff Notcher as the Notcher only operates on metal in the flat.
The T-connection is referred to as an outside tap that is formed on the top tier of the 3-in-1 roll set and usually gets notched by hand after it is formed thru the Lockforming machine But this is laborious so some shops use an Edge Notcher before running it thru the Rollformer OR they cut out the notches on their Plasma Table Then run it thru the Rollformer already notched like this
