LVD’s Strippit PX-L combines the punching and forming advantages of the Strippit PX punch press with the speed and versatility of fiber laser cutting to complete multiple processes on a single machine, answering the need for flexible manufacturing.
The Strippit PX 1530-L can punch, form, bend and tap, forming flanges up to 3 in. high as well as countersinking, wheeling and scribing. The single-head punch press has 20 indexable tool stations and holds tools as large as 3.543-in. in diameter. Performing multiple processes on one machine means less setup time, fewer or no secondary operations and improved part quality, which results in shorter lead times and reduced operating costs.
Strippit PX-L Advantages
- Increasing overall productivity and operator efficiency, the machine can process a full-size workpiece without repositioning.
- Auto-focus cutting head with crash protection automatically adjusts the focal point to the desired position and beam diameter to achieve the best possible cutting results from simple to complex forming profiles.
- 4-kW fiber laser handles a full gamut of cutting applications. The integrated control and laser drive system delivers high efficiency and reliability.
- The laser head is mounted on the frame and rides along its own Y-axis by a rack and pinion drive system.
- A large 15.9-in.-by-60-in. parts chute pivots to gently slide laser cut parts or scrap into a bin or opens to drop or release parts from a skeleton.
- Setup and tool change time is minimized with the single head punch press, which features a circular tool magazine with full 360-degree tool rotation.
- Retractable die ensures scratch-free punching and forming.
- Equipped with an Energy Reduction System (ERS) to minimize power consumption.
- LVD’s MOVit automation options maximize productivity and process reliability. Options include Compact Autoload, Compact Tower, Flexible Automation, Tower and Warehouse Storage systems.
