The Ultimate

The Ultimate

The Ultimate is the most feature-rich air clutch punch press control system available, designed to meet and exceed all current OSHA and ANSI standards for control reliability and component monitoring. It incorporates the PressCam 8 with the 3200SS Control Panel, delivering unparalleled punch press synchronization and flexibility for peripheral operations such as feeds, die protection, lubrication, and blow-offs.

With a 100-job memory, the system allows for quick and seamless setups of different operations, saving valuable time. Operators can make all electrical timing adjustments directly at floor level, including fine-tuning the stamping process while the press is running. This enhances efficiency and maximizes press utilization.
