Streamlining Production: Aluminum Extrusion Punching

In aluminum fabrication, the goal is always to move from raw extrusion to finished part as quickly as possible. While traditional methods like milling are common, they often lack the speed required for high-volume production.

At Punch Tools, we provide a more efficient alternative: high-speed, custom-engineered punching and notching.

The Precision of a Single Stroke

Traditional drilling processes are sequential, requiring one hole to be made at a time. This creates a production bottleneck for high-volume orders. Our specialized tooling allows you to:

• Punch multiple holes at once, drastically reducing cycle times.

• Flawlessly perform punching in a single cycle.

• Prepare extrusions perfectly for immediate mounting, joining, or further fabrication.

Protecting Structural Integrity

One of the most critical aspects of punching aluminum is preventing the deformation of the profile's walls or "legs." Without the right support, the pressure of a punch can crush the hollow sections of an extrusion.

Our engineering team designs tools that provide internal and external support to the material during the punch. This ensures:

• Zero deformation of the extrusion legs or side walls.

• High-precision results.

• Clean, burr-free edges that are ready for assembly right off the press.

Versatile Solutions for Every Industry

Secondary processing for aluminum is required across a vast range of sectors. We provide flawless fabrication for industries including:

Automotive • HVAC • Aerospace • Construction • Electronics • And More

Whether you are working with standard U-channels and I-beams or highly complex architectural shapes, we have the expertise to handle the job.

Custom Tooling

The beauty of the aluminum extrusion industry is the endless variety of custom shapes. We understand that standard tools aren't always enough for unique profiles. At Punch Tools, we specialize in developing custom tooling solutions tailored to your exact specifications.
