Turret Punch Press for Chassis Long Member

04/28/2008 7:14 AM

I need a turret punch press for punching holes on chassis long member, on both web & flange of the C - section. Our section has a range of 240*60mm to 320*90m. The thickness of the beams would vary from 5mm to 10mm and the material is Domex650 (tensile stength 65kg/sq mm). The tonnage would be 80 - 100 T.

I have used a machine from Belgium earlier, which is very good. His present delivery time is very high (16 months). I would like to know, if there are any manufacturer in US for such a press.

I have already googled & got 65000 results in 0.3 seconds. After 10 pages I gave up.

Thanks a lot

Hydraulic press is a solution. In my earlier organization I had used a 5000T hydraulic press for this. The productivity is very high, but the investment on tools & the lead timeis high; also, the flexibility is low even with modular tools. With a turret press single piece flow is possible, with very low inventory.

Just curious, what about the tonnage figure put you off? It is = to an average thirteen year old and an average 8 year old using a pry bar about 1/4 mile long. About 22" ID actuator at medium pressure.
