Over £1,000,000 Investment
With our customers demands constantly changing the need to reduce both lead time and batch sizes is becoming ever more important. LPE have invested a million pounds in new equipment that will support this demand. The new combination laser punch has a 4Kw laser, 30 ton punching, 4 station tapping unit, high speed punching and forming functions,1800 hits per minute punch rate and can handle sheet sizes 3000mm x 1525mm x 6mm. Combine this with the minimal need for tooling, this machine will help satisfy even the most demanding customers requirements.
To complement this machine and to add further capacity we are also installing two high-speed 8 axis CNC press brakes, one 100 ton x 3000mm and the other 80 ton x 2500mm capacity. These machines will be programmed using the latest Radan bending software allowing complicated parts to be bent with minimum set up.
