Press & Shear Machinery, Tamworth is now offering a new range of entry-level punch presses, punching /plasma cutting combination machines and hydraulic notching equipment.
The introduction follows a sales and service agency agreement with machine manufacturer Boschert, Germany.
The punch presses range from manually operated models with stops set by hand or equipped with a digital readout, up to programmable CNC machines.
Models with twin or triple punching heads are available, the latter version offering 24 tools for manufacturing complex sheet metal components without tool changes. Sheet sizes up to 3,000 by 1,500 mm can be accommodated.
Combicut machines include plasma cutting and forming of sheet up to 3,000 mm x 1,500 mm. Proprietary FineFocus plasma technology allows clean, dross-free cut edges and positioning tolerance ± 0.2 mm with 0.03 mm repeatability. The plasma head is mounted on a separate frame from the punching head to ensure vibration-free plasma cutting.
Boschert claims that its fine plasma technology is a cost-effective alternative to laser cutting, even on thin materials. One of the heads on the twin- and triple-head punching machines may be fitted with a plasma head. Single-head Ecco Line CNC punch presses can be converted to plasma-only machines.
