Special-Application Punch Tooling
Mate Precision Tooling Booth 1330
Mate Precision Tooling, Anoka, MN, will exhibit its line of special application tool- ing, including EasyMark, designed to mark parts for easier identification in downstream operations; EasySnap, which creates shake-and-brake joints for separating parts; and SnapLock, which creates interlocking tabs to lock parts together. Also on display will be the new Mate XMT24A two-piece punches For Euromac XMTE6 Multi Tools. Made
of high-speed steel, the punches have hardened pins for precise punch orien- tation, and have heads of durable 300M steel for toughness and long life. A 1⁄4-in. back taper and polished punch flanks reduce punching friction while eliminat-
ing galling and maximizing punch life. Mate’s proprietary two-piece punch design allows punch-length adjustment
simply by rotating the punch head.
