CNC Punching MachineHolecut 40-9 Professional

All pieces are sent down a slat conveyor andare pushed sideways onto a table. Any scrap iscarried to the end of the conveyor and droppedinto a bin. The machine continues to run in thismanner until a new work piece is programmedor selected. Just merely insert new material.Different work pieces can be produced withinone work cycle to optimize production.

Work PiecesThe EHRT Holecut Professional Line punchingmachines rapidly processes flat profile bars upto 16 mm thick and 200 mm wide with an opti-on up to 260 mm wide.

All EHRT punching machines in the HolecutProfessional Line feature three CNC controlledaxes. They are designed for high loads in anindustrial operation. Extreme durability and unri-valled speed characterize the Professional line.

Our latest technology allows all 3 axes to bemoved simultaneously with 8 m/s2 and travel atspeeds up to 60 meters/min. This latest version,which includes servo-hydraulics, operates at arate of up to 120 strokes/min. The third CNC axisalways moves the cylinder exactly over the toolwhich keeps the wear on the bearings and toolsto a minimum. Multi-shift operation of the machi-ne is guaranteed.

HHooww iitt WWoorrkkssProgram the work piece by entering the lengthof the bar of raw material and the computerautomatically calculates the maximum numberof pieces to be punched (for example 18 piecesof a bar of 6000 mm). Once the desired num-ber of work pieces is entered, the bar is pushedtoward the stop. The machine is fully automa-ted once the production process is launched.

ClampingThe work piece is clamped laterally by anexchangeable transport gripper. The gripperpulls it through the machine along the x-axis inorder to avoid damaging the work piece. Inaddition, the work piece is clamped sidewaysoutside the punching area with each punchingstroke which also allows the punching ofslightly deformed material.

Punching AreaThe great advantage of lateral clamping is thatpress cuts are allowed throughout the wholework piece including the border. This elimina-tes the restrictions of traditional clamping jaws.

Tool Change SystemThe linear tool carrier (y-axis) has six stationsthat hold five punching tools and one cuttingtool. All EHRT punching machines are equip-ped with a special plug-in system for a quickand easy change of tools. There is no need toscrew anything together. The punch and dieplate are adjusted to each other automatically.Punches and dies can be changed rapidlymeaning less machine downtime.

PrinterA printer can be installed to print bar codes oneither labels or on the work pieces directly.

Continuous DevelopmentDuring the development of the latest add onsof EHRT punching machines a lot of customerrequests were implemented and great impor-tance was attached to the optimisation ofergonomics.

NetworkingNetworking with other EHRT machines andexternal workstations is supported. When net-working with one of the EHRT bending machi-nes, the bending axes are also visible and avai-lable for reference.

CuttingThe machine features a cutting program to sepa-rate the work pieces after punching by usingnibbling technology. If work pieces are to be pun-ched without cutting, this option can be disabled.

Program StorageThe program for each work piece can be storedas alphanumeric names up to 24 digits. Up to200.000 parts can be stored which can be loca-ted easily by using the search and sort options.

Software languages: German, English, Russian,French, Finnish. Other languages on request.

Easy HandlingThe Microsoft Windows® based softwarePowerCut is very easy to learn. CNC program-ming skills are not required. All the punches ina work piece are shown on the screen makingprogramming mistakes easily detected. Whenselecting a new piece, all the necessary toolingchanges are displayed. Software training isminimized by the menu-driven software.Operators can soon program work pieces bythemselves. PowerCut scans each program forpossible collisions before transferring it to thecontrol unit. This eliminates most handlingerrors. The software can be used in millimetresor inches.
