Mate Precision Technologies to Demo Punching and Bending Solutions at FABTECH Mexico 2023
Mate’s tooling solutions increase your shop’s productivity, eliminate secondary operations and reduce part costs.
Posted: March 3, 2023
The latest Mate tooling solutions for increasing productivity, eliminating secondary operations and reducing part cost will be on display at FABTECH Mexico, May 16-18, 2023, at the Centro Citibanamex in Mexico City.
The Mate Screw Pocket Lance & Form tool eliminates the need for a formed flange and the hardware. It creates a form in the edge of the sheet that is designed to receive the screw-thread directly. The hardware and secondary operation are eliminated and both components are fastened together securely.
The Mate One-Hit-Hinge™ forms two sections of a curl on two separate knuckles, creating a closed circle. When assembled with mating forms, the pin is held securely in place by 360° contact. Since One-Hit-Hinge does not have to be formed straight up and curled down (3-hi style), the hinge diameter can be larger and will not interfere with the machine gap. Use the Mate One-Hit-Hinge to reduce the number of tool hits, increase form size and reduce part cost.
Get more out of your press brake. Forming sheet metal on your press brake with Ultraform PBT™ is fast and easy. Ultraform PBT™ combines Mate’s proven, top-of-the-line Ultraform® thick turret forming system with our all-new universal press brake forming holder.
