Original Press Release:



Mate Precision Tooling Introduces Roller Solutions(TM) Tooling - for Increased Productivity of Thick Turret Punch Presses



Anoka, Minnesota – Mate Precision Tooling introduces Roller Solutions™ tooling. This new tooling family allows fabricators to quickly and cost effectively create rib, shear, offset and pincher features in sheet metal. Compared to traditional methods utilizing progressive forming tools, Mate Roller Solutions dramatically increases productivity when creating detailed metal forms.



Roller Solutions™ Tooling is available in the following configurations:

Rolling Rib tooling dramatically reduces the time taken to create stiffening ribs in products requiring additional strengthening. Ribs may be created in any contour, and started or ended anywhere on the sheet.



Rolling Shear tooling is used for slitting and nibbling operations. It improves these functions by virtually eliminating burrs and reducing scrap. The rolling shear can be used to perform high-speed straight line and contour cutting.



Rolling Offset tooling creates offsets and eliminates the need for press break secondary forming operations. This tooling can quickly create straight line and contoured offsets.



Rolling Pincher tooling allows parts to be quickly and cleanly separated from surrounding metal without burrs. By utilizing precise scoring, this tooling creates parts that easily snap from the sheet with high quality edges.



Designed for thick-turret B-station applications, all four Mate Roller Solutions tooling handle high-speed applications – equal to the programmed table travel speed. The tooling works well on a wide range of materials including stainless steel, mild steel and aluminum. The tooling is another great Mate solution for reducing or eliminating expensive secondary operations.
