The TruMatic 7000 from TRUMPF is designed to combine scratch-free punching and laser processing. "This combination machine meets stringent demands for part quality, productivity and flexibility," said a company spokesperson. "The machine comes in two formats (medium and large) and can process sheet metal up to 5/16 of an inch."

"With the TruMatic 7000, sheet metal fabricators now have a highly dynamic solution," said Mike Kroll, Product Manager of TruPunch and TruMatic machines. "This machine is efficient and powerful, and with its unique forming capabilities parts with previously unheard-of dimensions can be created."

"The TruMatic 7000 features 4 kW of laser power for the highest cutting dynamics, along with productive punching with a maximum stroke rate of 1,200 in/min in the medium format and 1,000 in/min in the large format," said a company spokesperson.

"The TruMatic 7000 has a laser flap cycle time of one second, and the beam quality of the TruFlow CO² laser yields high-precision cutting results. Additional axes enable higher cutting speeds in combination with lower energy consumption and an increased cut quality.

"In addition, the machine's rugged design enables a high degree of precision when producing contours, and scratch-free processing is achieved by lowering the active die during sheet positioning.

"Single cutting head strategy and the fast nozzle changer facilitate unattended operation over multiple shifts, and the active die for extending forming capability allows for larger, higher forms and an active upward forming stroke."
