New Punch Press Offers the Option of Wiedemann or Spring Style Tooling



Murata Machinery USA, Inc., a manufacturer of metal fabrication machinery and automation, has introduced the latest in its Motorum line of turret punch presses. "The Motorum M2048TS incorporates a CNC servo motor-driven turret punch press with a new ram drive that combines high-speed punching, exceptional forming operations and reduced noise," said a company spokesperson.

"Muratec introduced the world's first servo-driven punch press in 1994," said Cary Teeple, Sales Manager of Murata Machinery USA, Inc.'s Fabrication Business Unit. "The Motorum M2048TS continues that evolution with Muratec's latest ram axis, servo-driven punch press."

"The Motorum M2048TS's ram drive provides an economical solution to parts with a more simple and rigid ram drive mechanism delivering higher punch speeds, efficiency and productivity in punching, forming, tapping and deburring," said the spokesperson. The Murata Intelligent Control Operations interface also minimizes setup time and assists with tool changes, turret load monitoring, scheduling and tool maintenance, as well as other features.

The Motorum M2048TS offers the option of either Wiedemann or Spring Style tooling and incorporates a new FANUC control with Murata's proprietary Intelligent Control Interface. The M2048TS offers retractable forming tools that eliminate forming die interference. Its large table accommodates 8-ft. sheets without a reposition and 16-ft. long sheets with a single reposition. A controlled punching stroke and urethane transfer balls enable the machine to operate more quietly. Turret capacity can be expanded with 12-station Varitools.
