It featured two high- accuracy Toggle Aire® Model 2530, 10-Ton Pneumatic Presses, one for punching the hole and the other for shearing the sheet afterward. The primary challenge of this project involved obtaining precise tolerances of ±0.002" around the burr of the punched hole on the steel sheet. To ensure dimensional accuracy in the customer's stack core transformer design our engineers had to design, build, and exhaustively test the punch tools to ensure th
