Mate expands LongLife tooling systems for Trumpf punch presses

Mate has expanded its LongLife Slitting Tool system to meet the needs of fabricators wanting greater versatility and flexibility.

The expanded line now includes variable width and length punch and die inserts. The new lengths range from size 56, 19.98 to 56.00 mm; up to size 76, 56.01 to 76.20 mm. Widths are now available in a range up to 6.35 mm.

Four standard shapes are available: rectangle, oval, trapezoid and dovetail. Also available are one-piece and two-piece die inserts. Added to the previously available rooftop shear are whisper, 1-way and flat shears.

Eleven standard discrete die clearances are now available ranging from 0.10 to 0.60 mm in 0.05 mm increments. Customers may also specify their own die clearances, if desired.

The expanded Mate LongLife product line boasts being made from the highest quality tool steel. Punch inserts are made from premium M4PM steel ensuring highest punch piece quality with maximum intervals between punch regrinds. Die inserts are also made from premium M4PM steel providing exceptional die strength and high wear resistance.

"Mate LongLife tooling is fully OEM compatible. As the only known M4 slitting tool available on the market today, LongLife delivers exceptional value to the fabricating process," comments John Galich, Mate marketing manager. "This expanded tooling system gives fabricators more options for their challenging projects."
