Greetings!

The New Year has us in scramble mode. Scrambling to do demonstrations, to prepare quotations, to pull machines from stock for shipment and scrambling to get them installed. This year is looking better every day.
Now is the time to review that turret punch and see if it is ready for the challenge of the coming market demands. Our new machines offer new capabilities with speed, efficiency and reliability. Automation is a must for added production efficiency utilizing your present labor.
Let us evaluate your application and production with our latest weapons to meet this rising challenge. Best regards,
Lloyd Keller National Sales Manager |

New Motorum 2048ST
Functionality, Power & Speed!
 | |
Motorum 2048ST |
The new Motorum 2048ST builds on proven Motorum technology in production since the mid 1990's. It provides high speed processing with reliability and accuracy. It features a 4' x 8' table, a 28 station turret (push/pull 114 style) including 4 (3.0") auto index stations and a 22 ton punching capacity. This machine is a more economical choice, but includes all the latest technologies.  The servo-controlled ram allows use of the latest tooling to conveniently add more value to your parts. The ST also offers a urethane ball transfer table which allows quieter operation and scratch prevention of parts. The ram axis servo motor controls the ram stroke directly, resulting in higher punch speeds and increased productivity. The ram axis drive uses an efficient motor that runs cooler and requires less energy. Thick side frames increase frame rigidity and provide stability in the punching process. The Motorum 2048ST can raise your overall productivity through process integration of deburring, forming, tapping and other processes together with reduction of time to setup and program. Contact your local Muratec dealer if you would like more information. |
 Thinking about automation? D&R Specialties got it done!
We were pleased to see our customer,
D&R Specialties, Navasota, TX, featured in the January, 2011 issue of FF Journal magazine.
D&R Specialties, a one-stop shop for machining, fabricating, welding and powder coating, serves industrial electronics industries building electrical enclosures, brackets and other components.
D&R purchased a load/unload system with their Motorum punch press in 2005. After six months, the load/unload proved how it could increase productivity. It led to D&R purchasing a new Muratec press with load/unload to take the place of two other punches. Adding automation also allows the operation to keep working four to five hours daily after the shop closes.
We hope you will take a few minutes to read about D&R Specialties' success and the positive impact automation has had on their operation.

ADDING VALUE TO YOUR PARTS
Retractable Forming Tools
By Don Angel, Applications Engineer
Issue: You have forming tools you use all the time. However, because of the raised dies, they require special programming; they scratch the material, and stations next to this tool may not be able to be used.  | |
Retractable Forming Die |
Solution: Using a retractable type forming tool, the forming die is lowered to die height. This eliminates special programming to avoid it, scratching of the material is reduced or eliminated as it rides over the die, and stations next to the forming tool are available to be freely used. In many of Murata's turret punch presses, this is a standard feature. All that is required is a special die holder and a special forming die. The die has a shank that extends through and hangs below the lower turret. The tool is defined as a retractable type forming tool in the machine's tool library. Click here to continue reading. |
