Punching is a quick and cost effective way to create holes of varying diameters in aluminium substrate. Our bespoke tooling capabilities help us offer affordable custom solutions.
Our punching service
What is punching?
Punching is a machining service that is used to create holes or indentations in aluminium profiles. Profiles are placed in a power press and moved along X and Y axes according to the data entered, positioning them under the machine’s punching ram, which then punches out a hole or indented form.
We can punch simple shapes such as circles and squares. We can also use bespoke tooling, and/or a combination of single hits and overlapping geometries, to create unique shapes or configurations.
What is punching used for?
Fast, repeatable and cheaper than drilling, punching is widely used across a diverse array of industries. Some typical applications include:
Events staging
Commercial vehicle accessories
Stairlifts
Marquees
Temporary roadways
Steps and stairnosing
