CNC / TURRET PUNCHING

Often in turret punching, buyers lose time and money drilling hole patterns, waiting on custom tools, or cracking the sheet with a hole too close to an edge.

At Central Sheet Metal, our existing tooling library covers most shapes, so a special tool is often unnecessary. The working rule is hole diameter and spacing at 1.5 times material thickness, which keeps the hit clean and protects the tool. When the part is mostly perforations, punching is recommended over laser because it is faster and cheaper per hole.

• Our CNC Punch Press rapidly punches precise high-volume hole patterns and perforations.
• Creating multi-hole patterns through standard drilling increases lead times and fabrication costs. Our punching equipment uses optimized tooling to process parts simultaneously to lower per-component costs.
