ideal machine for punching applications
that involve a variety of parts and multiple
setups.
The most important feature of MLR is
punching versatility. Different part lengths,
hole sizes, hole positions, end stop
positions, and even part profiles, can all
be punched on a single MLR machine with
only minimal setup time between different
parts. All aspects of setup and changeover
are designed to be user friendly – even
unskilled labour can accomplish them in
only minutes.
MLR systems are available in standard
rail lengths from 2ft to 10ft. Standard 7.5t
and 12.5t Multicyl punching stations are
used and the simple building block concept
allows users to add or remove stations as
required.
Complete with industry standard tooling,
the Multicyl MLR includes the Multicyl
Press-in-a-Box feature, which means that
it is delivered ready to use. Multicyl is
among the safest punching options on the
market, with an MLR system that typically
meets OSHA standards with no additional
guarding or safety features.
If an application requires custom features
to be added to the MLR system, the
company’s engineering team can meet
these requirements.
Offering fast cycle times, some Multicyl
models can complete cycles in 1 second.
