Falcon Precision have recently taken delivery of our new CNC Punch, a TruPunch 3000, marking a significant step in our investment plan over the last few years.
What is it?
The TruPunch 3000 is an automated large format CNC Punch, designed for punching and profiling sheet metal from 0.5mm thick, up to 6mm thick. Materials that can be punched include, but are not limited to:
- Mild Steel
- Aluminium
- Stainless Steel
- Brass
- Copper
- Zintec
- Pre-Galvanised Steel
- Pre-Painted Steel
After a week long installation and training, the punch and sheet loader and tool grinder is now fully operational. The punch has been installed in our extension completed in January 2020, see our post on it at the time here.
As part of the CNC Punch installation, we have taken the opportunity to move our CNC milling machines into the new extension. The desire was to keep them in a cleaner part of the factory to help keep the machines running smoothly and to help workflow through the factory.
Over the coming weeks will be putting up more posts on what this new acquisition means for sheet metal CNC punching at Falcon Precision. Looking more in depth to what is achievable and how this can benefit our end customers. If you wanted to get in touch with us before then we are inviting current customers and their designers into Falcon to better understand how they can implement strong design for manufacture to cut waste and add value to their product/parts.
