3.1. Notes on technical information
(1) When special tools are used, the tool change time may differ from the value given.
(2) Upforming speed depends on the form height, ram speed, acceleration/deceleration rate of
the X and Y axes, and axis speed.
(3) Hit speed depends on the programmed stroke length, ram speed, and acceleration/
deceleration rate and speed of the axes.
(4) Punching accuracy is tested according to the Finn-Power standard LKP-7100 by punching
holes in a 1 m x 1 m sheet at 100% speed and measuring the location (X/Y) and angle (CNC
Index Tool) of the holes punched in the sheet.
(5) Positioning accuracy is measured by a laser-interferometer from the X and Y slides of the
machine's coordinate table according to the VDI/DGQ 3441 standard.
(6) The allowable acceleration/deceleration rate of the X and Y axes depends on sheet weight.
Part accuracy depends on the acceleration/deceleration rate and on the sheet size and weight.
(7) Average power consumption is based on the production run of a typical nesting program with
nominal sheet size and 1.5 mm sheet thickness. The effective value can be used in calculation
of energy costs.
(8) This value must be used when the power supply is dimensioned for the machine (size of
possible transformer and cable).

(9) Average compressed air consumption is based on the production run of a typical nesting
program with nominal sheet size and 1.5 mm sheet thickness. The value can be used in
calculation of energy costs.

4. Operating description of turret punch press
The turret punch press is constructed for processing of sheet material. Tools for punching are located
on the turret. Sheets are processed by punching them with a punch and die. In the process the sheet
is moved according to NC control commands. Punching can be executed as a single stroke or a stroke
sequence (nibbling or cutting out).
The machine is constructed to be suited to its purpose of use and to be operated, adjusted and
serviced without exposing people to danger as far as the operations in question are performed in the
way the manufacturer has intended and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
4.1. Misuse of the machine
The machine must not be used for any other purpose than for processing of sheet material. The
operating values specified in the technical data must not be exceeded. Neither the application, the
construction or any part thereof must be changed nor any auxiliary equipment added without a written
consent from the manufacturer.

• Three linear axes for X, Y, and RAM movements
• Two rotating axes (0 to 360°)
• C for index
• TUR for tool change
Options
• TU axis for TU6 tapping unit
• FORM axis for upforming
5.2. Coordinate table
• The coordinate table moves the sheet in the X and Y axis directions, being controlled by the
NC control. Axis speed is freely programmable.
• Axis acceleration can be reduced by programming.
• The working area in the X-direction can be expanded automatically by means of the reposi-
tioning function.

5.3. Turret
Figure: Turret
• The machine comes with a 20-station turret.
• The turret is completely protected by cover plates.
• The turret comes with separate tool holders, which allows making the turret layout to customer
specification.
• The tool holders are easy to change.
• There is a service door in the brush table to give access to the turret.
• The turret can be rotated manually by pressing the buttons in the turret cover when the turret
service door is open.
• The buttons are operational only in JOG mode.
• When the turret service door is open, other axes cannot be moved.

5.4. Clamps
• The clamps are equipped with a pneumatic central locking system.
• All punch presses have connectors for the installation of an additional clamp (option).
• The programmable clamp setting system (PCS) positions and locks the clamps in the positions
defined in the NC program.
• NC control measures the clamp positions and controls automatically that the clamps do not
collide with anything.
5.5. Brush tables
• The brush table damps sheet vibration and noise, and it does not damage the underside of the
sheet.
• The table on the loading side is equipped with sheet support rollers which rise when a sheet is
being loaded. Thanks to the rollers, it is easy to load sheets and insert them between the clamps.
When the clamps are closed, the sheet support rollers retract automatically.
• The brush table can be equipped with a work chute (option) in front of the turret through which
the parts are dropped from the table to be sorted.
User Guide - E5 Turret Punch Press

5.6. Punching mechanism, E machines
• The punching stroke is generated by a servomotor-driven mechanism.
• The upper and lower limits of the punching stroke can be set numerically (NC axis).
• In forming, the upper and lower limits of the ram are freely adjustable from the bottom position
up.
• With forming tools, you can program a lower ram speed and use a lower forming speed and a
positioning tolerance based on the G code, which allows making exact and intricate shapes.
5.7. Control centre
• The control centre accommodates the central processing unit of the NC control, the servo am-
plifiers, the cell control computer, and other electrical equipment.
• The computer in the control centre is equipped with a LAN connection.
• The NC control display, the main operation panel of the machine, and the touch screen are
located in a separate control desk.
5.8. Auto-index system
• The auto-index system enables automatic rotating of the tool in the working position according
to the numerical control.
• It is possible to perform punching strokes and nibbling with the tool at a freely programmable
angle.
• The system turns the tool automatically to the programmed angle while the X and Y axes of the
machine move the sheet.
• The index mechanism is mounted on the machine frame, due to which the index tool stations
in the turret are uncomplicated and interchangeable.
• A desired number of index tool stations can be mounted on the turret; the number of stations
can flexibly be changed afterwards.
5.9. Standard tool system Thick Turret
The standard tool system of a turret punch press is Thick Turret (AM). The turret punch press can
also be equipped with other tools to special order.
