ideal machine for punching applications that involve a variety of parts and multiple setups. The most important feature of MLR is punching versatility. Different part lengths, hole sizes, hole positions, end stop positions, and even part profiles, can all be punched on a single MLR machine with only minimal setup time between different parts. All aspects of setup and changeover are designed to be user friendly – even unskilled labour can accomplish them in only minutes. MLR systems are available in standard rail lengths from 2ft to 10ft. Standard 7.5t and 12.5t Multicyl punching stations are used and the simple building block concept allows users to add or remove stations as required. Complete with industry standard tooling, the Multicyl MLR includes the Multicyl Press-in-a-Box feature, which means that it is delivered ready to use. Multicyl is among the safest punching options on the market, with an MLR system that typically meets OSHA standards with no additional guarding or safety features.
