Metal Punching and Stamping

Within our Metal Stamping and Punching area, we operate six state-of-the-art turret punching machines from Amada, which provide punching tonnages of up to 30 tons and can handle materials of dimensions up to 50 x 100 inches. Advanced material handling equipment comprised of material storage towers and automated loading/unloading equipment is integrated with most of our turret punches. Our systems are fitted with advanced CNC capabilities, including Fanuc controls, ensuring efficient machine operation and reduced lead times. All machines are networked for file sharing and communication.

To minimize production costs, Metcam uses advanced nesting software to ensure optimal usage of material and reduction of scrap. In addition, our turret punches and laser systems are integrated into our production scheduling system. Most parts are programmed to run on either the turrets or lasers, giving us the flexibility to schedule jobs "on the fly" for the next available machine--unless a job is restricted to a particular machine or technology.

To complement our turret punches, our 60 ton Minster stamping press is ideal for higher volume fabrication jobs. The availability of this stamping capability in-house helps to achieve a smooth transition from low-volume to high volume production.

When it comes to punching, Metcam is among the best.
