An efficient hydraulic press drive combined with rapid table accelerations and high hit rates increase productivity and lower the cost of per part production for prototypes, short or long run operations. Pullmax Series punch presses handle workpieces up to 1500 x 3000 mm without reposition in material thicknesses to 8 mm.

Pullmax Series punch presses provide exceptional forming capacity through advanced control software. Flanges up to 3” (75 mm) can be formed to any programmed angle. Flanges oriented on the sheet at angles other than 0 or 90 degrees can be formed using the OptiBend feature with 360 degree head rotation. Knockouts, louvers and countersinks are accurately produced and internal as well as external bends can be achieved.

All tool rotation allows every tool to rotate a full 360 degrees for total flexibility.

All 20 tool stations are designed to hold any size tool, up to a maximum tool diameter of 90 mm. Any tool can be used anywhere on the sheet. Tool capacity can be increased with the addition of indexable Multi-Tools in 5- or 10-station configurations. The optional Extended Tool Magazine offered on the Pullmax 720 and 730 models provides 40 additional tool stations to further reduce set-up time and tool changeover.

Automated handling options provide unmanned machine operations 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Pullmax punch presses can be equipped with load/unload, parts picking and parts sorting. A standard 500 x 525 mm parts chute quickly offloads small parts. The Compact Automation system loads full-sized blanks onto the punch press and unloads, sorts and accurately stacks finished parts and skeletons, including formed parts up to 1500 x 3000 mm.
