The Oakley Single End Trim Machine is a hand-loaded trim machine for heating elements that clamps each element and strips back the MgO and tubular sheath to expose the predetermined terminal pin length. It trims one end at a time, with elements manually removed, making it ideal for precise heating elements production at small to medium volumes.
For higher throughput, the Oakley Double End Trim Machine trims both ends of the element simultaneously and automatically ejects the finished element. This trim machine provides faster operation and increased efficiency, making it well-suited for high-volume heating elements production.
The tangible benefits that make a difference

Handles various element diameters, sheath materials, and lengths — a fit for both low- and high-volume production runs.

A single pass removes both MgO and metallic sheath — no secondary steps, no manual touch-up. The result: a clean, undamaged terminal pin, every time. Fully automated and repeatable, so quality never depends on the operator.

Enclosed cutter heads with vacuum/dust collection keep trimming contamination-free, while the special cutter design allows for quick setup and tool changes.
The Oakley single end trim machine is designed as a hand loaded unit that clamps the elements and strips back the MgO and the tubular sheath to
expose the predetermined terminal pin length. It trims one end of the element at a time, and the elements are removed manually from the machine.
This unit is intended for medium to small production levels.
– Inexpensive end finishing
– Adjustable feed rate
– Simple adjustment for both element and trim length
– Variable cutter speed
– Special design cutter head provides for fast and simple setup
– Flexible for different diameters and sheath materials
The Oakley double end trim machine is designed similar in operation, but because both ends of the element are trimmed simultaneously and also
because the elements are automatically ejected, it has a higher production rate.
