CNC TURRET PUNCH PRESSESSTRIPPITM-SERIES

M-SERIESLarge Capacity& FlexibilityThe Strippit M-Series of CNCturret punch presses offer thelargest turret capacity of machinesin their class. A 47-station turretprovides high flexibility andreduces set-up time, increasingmachine productivity.The versatile mix of turret stationsincludes three 88,9 mm autoindexing stations capable ofaccepting a variety of indexableMulti-Tools, tapping and wheeltools. Four 50,8 mm stationsaccommodate large punching andforming operations. A full 25 mmfeed clearance between the upperand lower turret allows for theproduction of higher forms suchas lances, louvers, embossmentsor card guides.These rugged 200kN hydraulicpunch presses handle a range ofmaterial sizes and thicknesses,and are able to process largeworkpieces with sheet repositioning. Smart Clamp, a standardfeature, automatically detectsexact clamp locations to providethe smallest possible no-punchzones.LVD’s patented Smart Stroke feature automatically optimizesthe ram stroke and simplifies programming operations to assurehigh efficiency and productivity.Engineered for superior accuracyand long production life, StrippitM-Series machines are built ona heavy-duty frame with anadvanced table positioningsystem that achieves accuracy of 0,10 mm with a repeatability of 0,05 mm over the entire table.The design also has no rail or

table obstructions in the workspace area, allowing the operatoreasy access when loading full sizesheets.Equipped with LVD’s EnergyReduction System (ERS), StrippitM-Series punch presses consumeup to 30% less electrical powerthan comparablemachines andare less costlyto operate andmaintain.Strippit M-Seriespunch presses can be integratedwith an optional, retrofitableautomatic load/unload system or6- or 10-pallet Compact Tower(CT-P) for complete materialloading, unloading, storage andretrieval.For high flexibility, large capacityand long-term reliability in amid-range punching machine, theStrippit M-Series is the solution.

MAXIMUM PRODUCTIVITYPrecision withReliabilityA high technology positioningsystem provides heavy sheetcarrying capacity and accuratemotion control to achieve accuracyof 0,10 mm with a repeatabilityof 0,05 mm over the entire table.The accuracy of finished partsensures the success of secondarybending and assembly operations.Strippit M-Series punch pressesfeature a direct drive axesconfiguration that provides theindustry’s tightest tolerances. Thisrigid design better controls bothpart tolerance and repeatability toeliminate backlash and wear forlong-term accuracy and reliability. A sophisticated table guidingsystem handles heavy loadcapacities. Patented sheet repositioningsystem handles larger sheetsand special part configurations. Smart Clamp featureautomatically detects exactclamp locations to provide thesmallest possible no-punchzone. Distance between work clampscan be maximized for excellentstability while punching largesheets.Advanced HydraulicPress Drive for HighSpeed ProcessingStrippit M-Series punch pressesfeature an advanced servo hydraulicpress drive and interactive software, optimized for high-speedoperation and ease of use. A lowpressure, high-pressure hydraulicpress drive is energy efficient.LVD’s Energy Reduction System(ERS) regulates the hydraulicpump and motor to lower energyconsumption.The hydraulic drive also reducesnoise and shock to increasemachine longevity and reducetool wear.Easy to use interactive set up screens.Graphic tool images aid with selections.

Innovative UserInterfaceAn innovative user interface provides graphic tool images to aidwith selections, making entering tool information easier thanever before. Operators interactwith a single graphic screen. Notool measurements or electronicadjustments are necessary forroutine tooling applications. Theoperator simply selects the toolto be used – punching, forming,wheel tool, scribing, marking ortapping – and the control software automatically determinesthe correct stroke settings. Nofurther input is required.LVD’s hydraulic ram also offersthe flexibility of electronic adjustments and features that takeadvantage of the intuitive controlinteraction. Users can applycustom settings or alterations tostroke elements such as depthoffset, dwell and ram speed,to further maximize machinecapabilities.Patented Smart Stroke programming maximizes productivity by automatically calculatingthe optimum hover height forevery stroke of the ram.HOW SMART STROKE MAXIMIZES PRODUCTIVITYSmart Stroke automatically selects the optimum hover height for each table move.Programmable rammodes include:Standard Smart Stroke – Thetool is kept close to the materialon short table moves. As hitsmove farther apart, the softwareautomatically increases the ramhover height to provide clearancefor sheet warpage.The Smart Stroke system alsoallows the machine to run mechanical machine programs withno need to edit traditional nibbleroutines or input hover heightcommands.Forming - A dwell can beprogrammed at the bottom ofthe stroke, allowing the material to flow more completely intothe desired shape, minimizingspringback and improving thequality of the formed part.Quiet Punch - The tool isprogrammed to rapidly approach the material, then slowto enter the material, continuing until shearing is complete.Once breakthrough occurs, theram completes its cycle at rapidspeed. This process reduces noiseand shock while maintainingproductivity.THE QUIET PUNCH FEATURE HELPSREDUCE NOISE AND SHOCKB - Ram breakthrough speed (% of max speed)K - Slow breakthrough amount (% of material thickness)

VERSATILE TURRETLarge TurretOptimizesEfficiencyStrippit M-Series punch pressesfeature a large 47-station turretconfiguration that offers tremendous flexibility and capacity. Thisversatile turret design allowsevery station to accept shapedpunches and dies, reducing setup time.The Strippit M-Series turretis gear-driven from the outerdiameter for smooth, precisemotion. Shot pin assemblies arealso mounted beyond the punchand die locations to optimizealignment at the tool during thepunch cycle.Self-stripping tooling uses thepunch guide to firmly press thematerial down on the die. Theguide continues to hold the sheetagainst the die until the punchhas retracted into the guide,preventing distortion of even thethinnest materials. The end resultis flat parts with virtually burrfree holes, greater finished partaccuracy and increased machineproductivity. Turret capacity can be easilyexpanded through the use ofindexable Multi-Tools. Large tool change door al-lows easy access to the turretfor quick tool loading. Quickchange die holders furtherreduce turret set-up time. Ability to punch at any locationon the sheet using any turretstation within the nominalsheet size reduces repositioningand maximizes productivity. Joystick mounted near the toolload door provides easy, convenient rotation of the turret fortool changing.

Three StandardAuto-Index StationsStrippit M-Series punch presses areequipped with three “D” size geardriven auto-index stations that area full 88,9 mm. These programmablestations make it possible to punchshapes at any angle to increaseflexibility and improve finishedpart quality.47-STATION TURRETCONFIGURATION24 – A Size 12,7 mm16 – B Size 31,7 mm4 – C Size 50,8 mm3 – D Size 88,9 mmLarge auto-index stations accepta variety of indexable Multi-Tools,further enhancing turret capacityand flexibility while reducing setup time.Enhanced FormingCapabilitiesStrippit M-Series machines provideexpanded forming capability with afull 25 mm feed clearance betweenthe upper and lower turret. Thisgenerous feed clearance allows forthe production of higher forms suchas lances, louvers, embossments orcard-guides.Precision AlignmentStrippit M-Series turrets are designedfor superior precision. Hardenedsteel guide bushings provide accurate punch and die alignment andare keyed to accept shapes in everystation. Bushings can be quickly andeasily replaced by the machine operator, eliminating the need for costlyremachining of the turret. Hardened outboard shot pinsprovide precise alignment of punchand die for exceptional hole quality. Gear-driven turret design ensuresfast, precise indexing. Bi-directional turret rotationautomatically selects the shortestpossible route to the next punchingstation for fast station-to-stationpositioning and increased productivity.Indicates Standard Auto-Index Station
