The benefits of CNC Punching

  • Produces feature intensive parts more quickly than laser-cutting
  • Excellent for sheet and light plate in many metals and alloys
  • Off-line tool set-up reduces changeover time
  • Can create a wide variety of contours and internal shapes, including small, 3-dimensional features
  • Common shapes and sizes are readily available
  • Eliminates secondary operations

3-dimensional features are incorporated in the process, such as:

  • Extrusions, embosses, tread grips, dimples, and coins
  • Threads
  • Short flanges
