Tool System Expanded for Euromac Multi Tool

April 1, 2008

Mate Precision Tooling, Anoka, MN, expanded its XMT tooling system with the addition of the XMT 12.7-mm punch, stripper and Slug Free die to suit the new

Euromac XMTE 10 Multi Tool.

Designed for use in the new 10-station multitool, the 12.7-mm tooling will accommodate round and shaped tools with a diagonal dimension to 0.500 in.

The new tooling and existing line of XMT 24-mm tooling features high-speed-steel punches with a ¼-deg. back taper and near-polished flanks to reduce friction and eliminate galling. Hardened strippers feature a tight clearance of 0.0017 in. for good punch guiding. Dies include Slug Free geometry to eliminate slug pulling and also feature uniform clearance radii in die corners to improve piece-part quality.
