Combined punching

Speed and precision in punching

Punching is, in 90% of cases, the first phase of the production process for a sheet‑metal component. For this reason, it is essential to carry it out with maximum precision, strictly complying with the tolerances required by the customer, to ensure the success of subsequent operations as well.

Silap uses hydraulic punching machines capable of meeting different technical specifications and has a fully equipped punch tool warehouse, enabling a fast response to production needs.

Prima Power LPe combined machine (punching + fiber laser)

An efficient and cost‑effective method for producing sheet‑metal parts is to perform punching and laser cutting in the same automatic cycle.

The Prima Power LPe makes it possible to produce components by combining punching and fiber laser thanks to:

• Linear motors for handling, valued for speed and precision in movements.
• Next‑generation fiber laser, delivering high performance with very high cutting quality.
• CAM software programming, to define the cutting program quickly and in a controlled way.

Finn-Power LB6 combined machine (punching + laser cutting)

In this case as well, integrating punching and cutting in the same automatic process makes it possible to produce sheet‑metal parts efficiently, including a laser suitable for cutting complex shapes.

The Finn-Power Laser Brilliance® LB6 combines punching and laser cutting thanks to:

• Linear motors for fast, precise handling.
• High processing flexibility, reducing the need for expensive special tooling.
• CAM software programming, to define the cutting program quickly and in a controlled way.
