PRECISION
Sheet Metal Punching
Sheet metal fabrication includes several processes one of them being CNC punching. We are running multi-tool turret CNC punch presses allowing us setup flexibility and fast turn around times. Depending on the part design and geometry it can be a low cost alternative to laser cutting or other cutting approaches. If the sheet metal part has countersinks or any type of small formed in features it can be the best option. We have a standard turret load of tools setup in the machine that allows us to setup and run parts quick especially the simple parts requiring standard feature sizes. Typical raw materials we punch include aluminum, steel, stainless steel, galvanized steel, copper and titanium. We have an extensive tooling inventory and can accommodate quick turn prototyping or high volume production runs.
