ELECTRIC PUNCH PRESS 115V W/PLC AUTOMATION + EXTRAS
This looks like a custom assembly for a manufacturing facility. The press is probably a 1 ton - 5 ton press. The fly wheel is 3.25" thick and 11" across. The motor is a MARATHON ELECTRIC 1/4 hp. This unit has a PLC -OMRON S3D8 CKF-US sensor controller - which runs a air ram with position sensors. This was probably part of an automation setup. There is also a resetable part counter built in. There is also the, 2 hands need to be on the sensors before it will run, safety feature. We power tested it and it powers up. The punch operation seems to be part of the PLC program so it did not go automatically but we did "hot wire" it and it works perfectly. The position sensors on the air ram also were tested and they do work. It looks good. It does have some minor bumps and scratches as from normal use. The breaker box cover on the back is smashed in, but it still works great.
