Deken Power's Gangbuster Sr. gang nail press delivers a whopping 42-tons of clamping pressure, simultaneously setting both top and bottom gang nails in one smooth operating cycle. The press is mainly used for joining lumber used as floor joists in building applications and can handle 2x6, 2x8 and 2x10 wood sizes.This is a stand-alone, high-speed production press that is designed to safely maximize throughput in the manufacturing and assembly floor joists. The unique feature of this press is that it pushes both pieces of lumber together tightly for an almost seamless joint, an HUD requirement. The lumber is automatically clamped to a fence during the gang nailing operation, assuring straightness every time. The Gangbuster Sr. determines the quality of the splice joint, NOT the operator.
Safe operation is always front and center. This product complies with or exceeds federal OSHA and all state and local safety requirements. The operator pushes OSHA two-hand controls to start the operating cycle. The machine shuts itself off automatically when not in use.
You can get comprehensive information on the Gangbuster Sr. from the Deken Power website.
On my next blog, I will discuss the Gangbuster Jr., a smaller, side-mounted table unit for joining lumber sizes ranging from 1x3 through 2x6.
