Ultimate Punch‑Laser Hybrid: One Machine, Endless Unlimited profit potential

Combine precision punching, forming, tapping, and high‑quality laser cutting in a single seamless workflow—boost efficiency, cut costs, and eliminate extra setups.

Product overview

What can the punching laser combined machine bring you?

Our punch‑laser combo unites servo‑driven punching and high‑precision laser cutting in one cell. It handles everything from piercing, forming, and tapping to scribing, engraving, and complex contour or large‑hole laser cuts—all without tooling swaps. This fusion of stamping and cutting maximizes flexibility and throughput, delivering a next-generation solution for precision sheet metal manufacturing.

  • Punching, forming, and laser cutting are completed in one process, minimizing workpiece handling and repositioning.
  • All-in-one solution for punching, cutting, louvering, roll forming, flow line, embossing, and more processes.
  • Only one operator and a single control system are needed for fast, accurate, and effortless production of various workpieces
  • Compact layout with a small floor space
  • Servo drive system for energy-saving and low-noise operation

Components of the laser punch combo

CNC Punch Press-Turret

CNC Turret

Our turret features a robust, nested structure for enhanced guidance and precise stamping accuracy. It’s offered in 28‑ and 32‑station variants; on the standard 32‑station model, there are:

  • 16 A‑stations (Φ1.5–Φ12.7 mm)
  • 10 B‑stations (Φ12.7–Φ31.75 mm)
  • 2 C‑stations (Φ31.75–Φ50.8 mm)
  • 2 D‑stations (Φ50.8–Φ88.9 mm)
  • Plus two rotating stations (1B and 1C).
  • Laser Punch Combo - turret control axis

    turret control axis

    The turret control axis is driven by a Panasonic servo motor, which synchronizes the upper and lower turrets to ensure highly precise stamping with no positional deviation.

    Rotating station

    Rotating station

    Our turret comes standard with two stations (1B and 1C). The rotating station lets a single die occupy fewer stations, reducing tool setups.

    Laser Punch Combo- Laser Station

    Laser Station

    At the laser station, our cutting head features a water-cooled fiber laser that efficiently handles both sheet steel and non-ferrous metals, with reduced power consumption. Its semiconductor‑based, modular design—without resonator optics or warm‑up time—delivers maintenance‑free, ultra‑stable performance that conventional lasers can’t match.

    Laser Punch Combo Cutting zone fitted with copper‑wire brushes

    Cutting zone

    Copper wire slats don’t hold slag, keeping the table clean; they reflect stray laser light to protect the bed; and their high thermal conductivity spreads heat rapidly, preventing warping.

    Control System

    Software

  • One‑click CAD‑to‑CAM Conversion: Seamlessly import CAD drawings into CAM mode to streamline programming.
  • Automatic Nesting Optimization: Dynamically arrange parts based on sheet characteristics and geometry to minimize material waste.
  • Real‑time Path Simulation & Verification: Simulate punching and laser trajectories in advance to check for collisions or overcuts, ensuring safe, reliable processing.
  • Punching–Laser Synergy Control: flexibly coordinate or sequentially perform punching and laser cutting operations, combining high‑speed hole punching and forming techniques with precision contour cutting to minimize costs and maximize efficiency.

    laser punch combo processing method

    1. Single Punching: Performs a single punch operation, including linear arrays, arc arrays, circular arrays, and grid‑pattern punching.
    2. Unidirectional Continuous Punching: Uses a rectangular die with partial overlap to produce elongated slots, edge trims, etc., in a single pass.
    3. Multidirectional Continuous Punching: Employs a small die in multiple orientations to punch large holes by overlapping strokes.
    4. Nibbling: Executes successive small‑step punches with a round die to create curved contours.
    5. Single‑Stage Forming: Executes one shallow draw per die shape to produce simple formed features.
    6. Continuous Forming: Forms features larger than the die opening—such as large louvers, embossing ribs, or stepped profiles—via progressive draw strokes.
    7. Array Forming: Simultaneously forms multiple identical or varied parts on a single sheet in a grid layout.

    Frequently Asked Questions
