Equipped with LVD’s Energy Reduction System (ERS), Strippit M-Series punch presses consume up to 30% less electrical power than comparable machines and are less costly to operate and maintain. Strippit M-Series punch presses can be integrated with an optional, retrofitable automatic load/unload system or 6- or 10-pallet Compact Tower (CT-P) for complete material loading, unloading, storage and retrieval. For high flexibility, large capacity and long-term reliability in a mid-range punching machine, the Strippit M-Series is the solution. MAXIMUM PRODUCTIVITY

■■Patented sheet repositioning system handles larger sheets and special part configurations.

■■Smart Clamp feature automatically detects exact clamp locations to provide the smallest possible no-punch zone.

■■Distance between work clamps can be maximized for excellent stability while punching large sheets. Advanced Hydraulic Press Drive for High- Speed Processing Strippit M-Series punch presses feature an advanced servo hydraulic press drive and interactive software, optimized for high-speed operation and ease of use. A low- pressure, high-pressure hydraulic press drive is energy efficient. LVD’s Energy Reduction System (ERS) regulates the hydraulic pump and motor to lower energy consumption. The hydraulic drive also reduces noise and shock to increase machine longevity and reduce tool wear.

Three Standard Auto-Index Stations Strippit M-Series punch presses are equipped with three “D” size gear- driven auto-index stations that are a full 88,9 mm. These programmable 47-STATION TURRET stations make it possible to punch CONFIGURATION 24 – A Size 12,7 mm shapes at any angle to increase 16 – B Size 31,7 mm flexibility and improve finished 4 – C Size 50,8 mm part quality. 3 – D Size 88,9 mm Large auto-index stations accept a variety of indexable Multi-Tools, further enhancing turret capacity and flexibility while reducing set- up time.

Enhanced Forming Indicates Standard Auto-Index Station Capabilities Strippit M-Series machines provide expanded forming capability with a full 25 mm feed clearance between the upper and lower turret. This generous feed clearance allows for the production of higher forms such as lances, louvers, embossments or card-guides. Precision Alignment Strippit M-Series turrets are designed for superior precision. Hardened steel guide bushings provide accurate punch and die alignment and are keyed to accept shapes in every station. Bushings can be quickly and easily replaced by the machine operator, eliminating the need for costly remachining of the turret.

■■Hardened outboard shot pins provide precise alignment of punch and die for exceptional hole quality.

■■Gear-driven turret design ensures fast, precise indexing.

■■Bi-directional turret rotation automatically selects the shortest possible route to the next punching station for fast station-to-station positioning and increased productivity. INNOVATIVE FEATURES
