<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Conder101, post: 2571133, member: 66&quot;]And there is another possible source of grease/oil coming in contact withthe die faces.&nbsp; Back withthe vertical strike presses the pnachets themselves were coated with a thin film of oil to help keep them from jamming in the feeding mechanisms. This oil, gathering dust etc could eventually build up on the die faces creating grease strikethroughs.&nbsp; Now I don&#039;t know if that has changed since the introduction of the horizontal strike presses but if not (After all the planchets still have to go through feeding mechanisms.) then your could still get a build up on the die faces.&nbsp; Also not ethat curved feeding tube in the image shown earlier.&nbsp; If oil from the planchets builds up in there it could eventually run down and drip into the coining chamber, or drops be carried by the planchets into the coining chamber.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
