Sheet Metal Manufacturing Innovation
Muratec’s NPS 01 Turret Changing System offers a revolutionary innovation in the processing of sheet metal. Its total of eight turrets allow any time exchange of turret between presetter and machine and any time preparation of tooling on the presetter without the machine stopping. The turret/tool preparation without machine stoppage allows for greater efficiency with flexible production scheduling. All tools are auto index type. Read More »

The Motorum 2558 Hybrid combines the best of punching and forming with the flexibility of laser cutting. The 2558 Hybrid uses advanced technology incorporating a high performance CNC control and laser oscillator. This system provides a high quality edge cut using many advanced functions such as a cutting monitor, user friendly laser cutting head with crash protection function, non-contact height sensor and laser power control function for complicated edge cutting.
HYBRID Series Benefits
- Process integration of laser cutting and punching with forming and tapping (option) is possible in one machine.
- Increased productivity
- Better product quality due to multiple processing with a single workpiece clamping
- Greater manufacturing flexibility
- Shorter lead times and lower running cost
- Reduced number of machines and in-process inventory

FG Series Loading and Sorting System FG 1250 and FG 1500
Muratec’s latest FG-Series cell loader system brings sheet metal automation to new levels in flexibility by adopting advanced servo control technology for axis drive, programmable parts stacking patterns and integrated Fanuc based FMS control system.
Micro Jointless Parts Production
FG-Series loaders remove finished parts processed by punch press or laser cut and are neatly sorted and stacked on the finished parts pallet. The system enables micro jointless parts production.
Expandable Loader Arm and Parts Unloading
The loader arms are expandable to suit the different sheet and parts sizes. Additional vacuum pads can be used for very large size parts pick-up.
Unloading – Fully automatic, reliable and stable parts handling
Multi-pads are provided on the loader arm for efficient pick-up of finished parts.
- Small size and hole intensive parts can be easily picked up
- Non-ferrous parts pick-up is possible
- Enables pick-up of various shaped parts
Unloading – Fully automatic, reliable and stable parts handling
FG-Series cell loaders enable programmable, flexible stacking patterns as per customer requirements.
Example stacking patterns
A: Stacking as per nested layout
B: Stacking as per product group
C: Stacking as per next process
Space Saving Compact Design
The loading, unloading and skeleton stations are located on the right side of the punch press to enable compact design floor plan. The worksheet manual loading/ unloading is also possible from the left side of punch press.
