TRUMPF TC5000R

A New Era in Punching ....

The TC5000R is the latest addition to the TRUMPF Trumatic range of punch presses – a machine whose emphasis is firmly on productivity.

Several design features contribute to its outstanding performance including a new guide system, proven punching head, increased c-axis speed, faster tool change and highly efficient materials handling.

 
This Trumatic introduces a new weight optimised co-ordinate guide system, lighter machine tables and the use of rapid tool change cartridges made from carbon fibre. The result is acceleration values of 20m/sē and positioning speeds of 116m/min.

The hydraulic punching head operates at 1200 hits/min during punching and 2800 for marking. The machine can process material up to 8mm thick and 230 kilos in weight. TRUMPF’s advanced stripper control allows downward pressure of the stripper to be varied between 4.5 and 2.0kNs from stroke to stroke through the programme control.

On the TC5000R, the c-axis rotation has also been increased to 330RPM. This allows much faster contouring and tapping.

 
The same applies to forming. Thanks to the closed hydraulic control loop and measuring system, variable forming height ensures minimal stroke travel. A new bending tool allows right angle forms up to a maximum of 25mm. Beading forms can also be processed at high speed with the maximum of 2800 hits per minute. Height adjustable clamps for holding the material are now offered, making it possible to form next to the clamps.

Weight reduction means tool change time is quicker on the TC5000R. Tool set up is also simplified and downtime reduced thanks to a central clamp locking system for all tools in the linear magazine.
