Ergom N3WY/16,2/M16 Hydraulic Three-Point Punch

The Ergom N3WY/16,2/M16 is a professional hydraulic three-point punch engineered for high-precision hole cutting in metal sheets. This specialized tool is designed to deliver clean, burr-free edges, ensuring professional results in demanding metalworking environments. Its robust construction and reliable hydraulic mechanism make it a dependable choice for technicians and engineers who require consistent performance during the modification of electrical cabinets and the installation of industrial control panels.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this hydraulic punch is its ability to produce accurate, smooth-edged holes without the need for extensive post-processing or filing. By utilizing a three-point cutting geometry, the tool minimizes material deformation and reduces the physical effort required by the operator compared to manual punching methods. The durable design ensures a long service life even under frequent use, while the hydraulic operation provides the necessary force to penetrate metal sheets efficiently and safely.

Suitable for

• Cutting precise holes in electrical cabinets
• Installing components in industrial control panels
• Metalworking tasks requiring clean, burr-free apertures
• Modifying sheet metal enclosures for cable glands or connectors

When it may not be suitable

This tool is specifically designed for use with hydraulic systems and may not be compatible with manual hand-driven punch drivers. It is not intended for use on hardened steel, extremely thick metal plates exceeding its rated capacity, or non-metallic materials.

Key specifications

• Punch type: Hydraulic three-point punch
• Hole diameter: 16.2 mm
• Thread size: M16
• Application: Sheet metal processing

How to use

To use the Ergom N3WY/16,2/M16, first ensure that the metal sheet is marked at the exact location where the hole is required. Drill a pilot hole of the appropriate size to accommodate the draw stud of the punch. Insert the punch assembly through the pilot hole, ensuring the cutting die is correctly positioned on the surface of the metal. Connect the hydraulic driver to the draw stud and activate the hydraulic pump to draw the punch through the material. Once the hole is cut, release the hydraulic pressure, remove the punch assembly, and clear any remaining metal slugs from the die.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing hydraulic pump or driver is compatible with the M16 draw stud specifications.
• Ensure the thickness of the metal sheet falls within the manufacturer's recommended range for this specific punch size.
• Confirm that the 16.2 mm diameter meets the requirements for your specific cable glands or electrical components.

Usage recommendations: Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and gloves, when operating hydraulic punching tools. Regularly inspect the cutting edges for signs of wear or dulling to maintain optimal performance and prevent potential damage to the workpiece.
