An early and major step towards sustainable fabrication was taken with the introduction of the servo electric E series turret punch press in 1998. Recently, Prima Power has introduced its third generation of this series.
The inherent benefits of servo electric include energy efficiency, versatility, and accuracy and low maintenance cost.
“We were surprised by the increased accuracy of the servo- driven punch. With the increased accuracy of the E Compact Express, we were able to redesign the boxes to eliminate welding.We now rivet the boxes together and the holes must match perfectly – and they do. Our cost of manufacturing these boxes has dropped 50%.”
