Mate AMX - ideal for Amada machines

New Mate AMX ABS tooling has special lubrication features and high speed steel designed to extend tool life while ensuring quality punching.

Available in Australia and New Zealand through Maxitec, Mate punches and strippers are 100% compatible with Amada ABS assemblies and holders, offering users a superior replacement tooling alternative.

Maxitec is a recongised supplier of sheetmetal machinery, machine tools, laser optics, parts scanners and metalworking software and training and is responsible for a long list of brands including Finn-Power, Autopol, Delem, Gasparini, InspecVision, Kuhlmeyer and Schroeder.

Operating benefits of the Mate AMX ABS tooling include internal lubrication within the punch guide and external lubrication between the punch guide and the turret bore. This internal lubrication of all critical tool components helps prevent galling, slivering and slug pulling.

The AMX ABS lubrication functions are computer controlled within the turret press and can be programmed and regulated according to punching requirements.

Mate’s AMX tooling system increases tool performance and flexibility with extended tool life while allowing use with existing systems. For customers with special application needs, optional Maxima™ coatings and Nitride treatments are available.

Maxima is a lubricious coating that acts as a barrier between the punch and sheet metal, greatly improving stripping. Nitride is a heat treatment for abrasive and adhesive wear environments when punching thin materials that helps extend tool life.

Precision machined of premium M2 high speed steel using Mate’s specially developed heat treatment process, Mate’s AMX punches combine with hardened and ground stripper guides to reduce galling, wear and heat, ultimately extending both tool and turret life. This results in very high tool performance, superior dimensional accuracy and maximum tool life.

The Mate AMX tooling is available in A and B station punches, stripper guides and assemblies as well as C, D and E station punches and strippers designed for use in all Amada machines equipped with ABS capability.
