This is an example of equipment utilising part of existing equipment, in this case a frame and attached features and replacing the main unit of this equipment with a new designed and fabricated unit.

This high speed punch press equipment is used to produce sheet metal strips which are combined with flexible material in a secondary process to fabricate isolation strips used in air-conditioning equipment.

The original design of this punch unit (supplied by a overseas supplier) required constant service attention and parts needed replacement on a frequent basis.

The two units were designed and fabricated by TAMA utilising a more modern approach in the mechanical design. The major parts of the equipment were calculated utilising finite element analysis software.

A new control system utilising VDF was installed to ensure smooth operation.

Punch section.

The punch unit features a standard punch as used in common brand turret punching machines.
