First Pullmatic 720 Laser in UK

General sub-contractor and long-term user of the Pullmax punching technology Ripley Engineering has invested in the UK’s first Pullmatic 720 Laser.  This combined punching and laser cutting system is manufactured by Swedish based Pullmax, one of world leaders in punching technology.  It is Ripley’s seventh Pullmatic punching machine.

In addition to a punching facility, Ripley Engineering provides laser cutting, bending and powder coating facilities to a wide range of customers including those in the vending, commercial catering, defence and medical industries, to name just a few.  The company has a long history in investing in the latest and most up-to-date technology.  Such is Ripley’s confidence in the Pullmax built equipment that the company notably invested in the Pullmatic 104, 126 and 5000 punches at the individual launches of the machines!

This latest machine from Pullmax integrates hydraulic punching technology with laser technology.  It is a multi-tasking system capable of handling sheets up to 1500 x 3000 mm wide, in materials up to 8 mm in thickness.  It is equally at home producing prototypes and one-off specials as well being capable of long production runs.   In addition, the Pullmatic 720 Laser can be used for forming and bending operations up to 75mm.
