Plate Punching, Marking and Drilling Machine
High-Precision CNC System for Automated Processing of Steel Plates
The Plate Punching, Marking, and Drilling Machine is a fully automatic, CNC-controlled processing solution designed for high-speed punching, marking, and drilling of steel plates used in a wide range of industries such as steel structures, bridges, transmission towers, construction, shipbuilding, and fabrication workshops.
This advanced machine combines three essential operations—punching holes, marking part identification codes, and precision drilling—in a single production line, drastically improving throughput, reducing manual labor, and ensuring dimensional accuracy. It is ideal for base plates, gusset plates, connection plates, and anchor plates with complex hole patterns and high-precision demands.
With high-speed servo drives, hydraulic punching cylinders, precision drilling spindles, and integrated dot-peen marking heads, the system enables automatic positioning, fast cycle times, and consistent quality. Its PLC + HMI interface allows operators to program hole patterns directly from CAD drawings, optimizing setup and reducing errors.
