CNC Turret Punch Press

The Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) Turret Punch Press is the perfect solution for large, medium or small-run sheet metal fabrication projects. This powerful machine is the alternative to constructing tooling and stamping parts which is an excellent aid to speed up the process. It can handle press cutting jobs up to 1/8”thick steel and 1/4” thick aluminium on a 48″ x 50″ table. For most projects, the Computer Numerically Controlled Turret Punch Press can perform up to 1,200 hits every minute. It has an automated loading system designed to operate the machine continuously.

The operation of the CNC Turret Punch Press commences when engineers create a design that is presented in a 2D format such as a DXF or a DWG file or in a 3D format. The information is then analysed to create a flat sheet metal layout and to assign the correct tooling required to create the desired component. To ensure the most efficient layout of components on a given size of sheet metal, LANTEK software is used. It is possible to upload an electronic design file into the machine and run parts the same day.

The Turret Punch Press had many advantages when used for fabricating sheet metal tasks such as cabinet designing, conveyor machinery components, automobile bodies, air craft wings, medical tables, roofs for buildings (architecture) and many other applications.
