SYSTEMS TO FIT YOUR BUDGET ~ CHART Chart shows how a typical sheet metal part can be punched and notched using various combinations of workstations. Costs are control- led by matching the system to production quan- tities. Prototypes can be made in a cost effec- tive manner using a single Multicyl and inter- changing the tooling. CNC punching machines only punch one hole at a time and may be outperformed by (example E) for high volumes. EXAM PLE - Material = .036" thick Mild Steel - Part requires: 4 notches @2" x 2" = 3.6 tons each; 8 holes @ I" diameter = 2.8 tons - Suggest using 7 1/2 ton Multicyl with standard 3 x 3 notchers and I" diameter capac- ity unitized punching tools. A) Using a single Multicyl station and interchanging tooling. corners may be notched and holes may be punched individually in 12 STEPS. B) 1Wo Multicyl stations. one for notch- ing. one for hole punching. results in the part produced in 6 STEPS. C)Using one corner notch. and two hole punching stations reduces the number of opera- tions to 4 STEPS. D) Add a second corner notch and two punch stations to punch half of the symetrical part in one hit. complete part in 2 STEPS. E)One Multicylfor each station produces the ultimate punching machine to complete the part in 1 STEP. r , I I I I I L_--r'- , r- I I I I A) 12 STEPS ~ J I L-- _.J r , i ~JJ.I.I.I ~ : =E)' : ~ iiii~ L J I I I STEP I I I I Example (Number) of Multicyl # operations @ capital cost cycle time parts / hour tool set PowerPunch stations 5 secs per hit .
