Today we will speak about punching units - small devices with big possibilities.
Mainly punching unit could be attached to any equipment with produced force - any press, hydraulic station, etc. But because we speak a lot of bending tools, for sure we will speak about the press brake.
Installation of a punching unit to the press brake could make a universal tool to punch the holes where necessary and then to make bending. Or to punch the holes, to form the holes, and then to make bending. If there is no punching press on production, with a punching unit installed on the press brake the factory now can do countersinks, embosses, dimples, lance and form shapes and any other forming necessary. And with the clever distribution of stations, it could be the ideal solution to punch and bend just between a few meters.
Punching units are available with their tooling but we also can supply punching units to use with a standard Thick Turret system with A, B, C, and D stations. In this way, tools are 100% interchangeable with punching press to divide the tasks and you are independent to find the supplier of main tooling to use. If it is possible, using several units at one time could speed also up the production process in time!
