Punching
We
undertake small to medium volume production
work using sheet upto 6mm thick and 2500mm
wide. With the latest in CAD/CAM technology
we are able nest both complex & assorted
components onto as single sheet with great
efficiency as well as high volumes of identical
part. Examples of high volume work include
brackets, electrical connectors, shims, engineering
components and washers.

Punching
Operations
Punching
operations that can be carried out include blanking,
punching and nibbling as well as dimpling and shaving.
Our punch is capable of up to 400 hits per minute
which allows for a high through put even on the most
densly nested sheet.
Tooling
We
use high quality tooling from Amada and Wilson and
have specialist tool grinders that mean we can easily
maintain the best cutting edge for every job. The
Amada Arcade 210 CNC punching machine offers a
Quality Of Tool feature which alerts the operator
to tool wear and with a 19 turret station (3 with
auto indexing) we can quickly change lead cutting
tools. We also hold a large tool library which our
highly experienced enginners can use to select the
most suitable tools for the job.
Panels
Large
sheet based components such as enclosures and panels
can be readily punched to exacting tolerances through
either direct programming of the Fanuc control system
or pre-programmed operations in G-Code. Components
can also be punched with holes and perforations upto
88mmØ.
Brackets
Sheet
metal brackets and other engineering components can
be readily punched from well nested sheets in low
to medium volume. Our experienced CAD Engineers can
nest components to optimal effect, carefully adjusting
the space between components as well as the sheet
edge, based on years of experience which saved time
and money. Engineering components can also be punched
with holes and squares where required.
Blanking
High
volume blanking of components such as washers, spacers,
shims and general punched parts can be undertaken
quickly and effeciently. Using customer containers
we can supply high volume parts by weight ready for
production management systems such as Kanban or direct
line side supply.
