Automated punching machine TruPunch 3000 series

electricsheet metalpunching machine

Overview
The multipurpose punching and forming system TruPunch 3000 processes sheet parts complete and scratch‑free. The all‑electric Delta Drive concept and optional automation enable high throughput, short setup times, reduced energy consumption and a compact footprint (up to 25% less floor space).

Key features

• Productivity and flexibility: available as standard or with Delta Drive performance package; fast MultiTool changes for series production.
• Low‑scratch handling: descending die and brush or ball tables reduce surface damage and rejects.
• Space saving: compact layout reduces installation area by up to 25% compared with comparable machines.
• Energy efficiency: all‑electric drive lowers power consumption and operating costs.

Drive and performance packages

• Standard configuration: 165 kN punching force, 650 strokes/min — economical option for reliable complete processing in medium format.
• Delta Drive performance package: 180 kN punching force, 800 strokes/min — for maximum productivity in series operation with high component density.

Automation & handling

• Compatible with automated solutions such as SheetMaster, SortMaster Compact and flexible cart systems for multi‑shift operation without extra personnel.
• Large part removal flap for automated unloading of parts up to 400 x 600 mm; fixed punching chute for parts up to 180 x 180 mm.
• Sorting function: automatic sorting of parts up to 180 x 180 mm into intermediate buffers and boxes.
• Integrated flattening: machine function and tool to compensate surface irregularities during punching and reduce post‑processing.
