QuickLock™ – Convenience

QuickLock

Overview

Mate’s QuickLock™ tooling system is for Trumpf style presses that combines the economy of conventional Trumpf style tooling with the convenience of a keyed alignment ring. The keyed alignment ring engages the alignment key in the punch for quick tool alignment without an alignment fixture, resulting in quicker tool set-ups and maximum machine productivity.

Mate QuickLock™ Tooling System Features:

  • High-speed steel punches for extended interval between sharpening.
  • Punches include an alignment key for use with the Mate QuickLock™ alignment ring.
  • Alignment ring with a keyway that engages the key on both Mate QuickLock size 1 and size 2 punches for quick and accurate tool alignment of both .
  • Urethane strippers, in an extended size range, for quieter operation and improved piece part quality.
  • Highly wear-resistant punches and dies.
