Punching Basics

If you are curious about how punching machines from TRUMPF actually work and what steps are involved in turning a simple sheet of metal into the finished part, you will be able to find out more on the next few pages.

The C frame
Good accessibility and high dimensional workpiece accuracy are decisive advantages of the C frame.

Punching process
The sheet is clamped on the machine table which, through program control, is positioned under the punching head. This guarantees an effective punching process.

Punching head
The single-station punching head only holds one tool at a time. This ensures greater parts precision and increases process reliabilty.

Rotation
All tools can be rotated steplessly. Punching is therefore possible at practically any angle and you need fewer tools.

Setting up
It couldn’t be easier since the tooling cartridges can be readied in a jiffy. This saves you a great deal of time.
