PUNCH/LASER COMBINES HIGH SPEED WITH UNLIMITED SHAPE-CUTTING CAPABILITIES

Amada America offers the EML K3610NT Punch and Laser. The next generation of punch/laser technology, the EML-NT, combines the high punching speed and forming flexibility of the innovative Electric Motor (EM) turret punch press with the unlimited shape cutting capabilities of a laser.

This results in a machine that requires minimum setups and affords extremely quick turnarounds, making it ideal for the high production of short-run sheet metal parts, particularly those that incorporate forming or have many holes.

The EML K3610NT combines the latest developments in machine, servo-electric punching, CNC and laser resonator technologies. The EML K3610NT is a specialist in high-speed production of short run sheet metal parts, especially those that incorporate forming allowing many parts to be completed in a single setup. Efficient manufacturing of parts with minimum setup and maximum machine utilization.
Single operation allows for minimal part handling and reduced labor costs. Go from purchase order to invoice in one easy operation.
Combines the advantages off a high speed, servo-electric punch press with the flexibility of up to 4000W of laser power. Can be considered a turret punch press with minimum setup or a laser with high-speed cutting and forming capabilities.

Standard features: Significant savings on tooling and improved part turnaround time; High speed punching with a servo-electric, direct twin drive system that dramatically increases ram speed and eliminates unnecessary ram motion; High speed laser cutting by utilization of "Hybrid" laser motion system; 100 in X-axis can process 8 ft sheets without repositioning which reduces process time and improves accuracy; Quiet operation with variable ram speed and laser cutting of large holes; Virtually eliminates slug pulling with the power vacuum system; High quality forming operations with programmable dwell at bottom of stroke for complete plastic deformation; Progressive forms, flanges and embossments eliminate secondary operations.

Reduced vibration of the direct twin drive ram combined with the rigid bridge frame ensures tighter tolerances extending tool and machine life while producing high quality, distortion free parts.
Brush table design provides scratch free processing, eliminating secondary finishing. Freestanding PC-based network CNC control allows for flexible layout. Optional EML 3610NT allows for laser processing 5 ft wide material.
