If you have an ironworker equipped to hold 28XX tooling and
you’re looking to shear multiple sized corner radii, then we have a solution
for you! Check out this punch and die our engineering team manufactured to punch
1/4”, ½”, ¾” and 1” corner radii. The material is located by guides on the
punch to ensure an accurate corner with every cycle. Call the Green Team today to receive a quote on this tooling!

Geka Extended Length Punches
Last week we covered the offset
punch and die holder for the Geka machines to assist in punching angle. This
week we will cover another option for punching angle. The Geka GXL punches are
extended length punches that are used in conjunction with the Leg Up Stripper
attachment (LUPPS attachment). The LUPPS attachment is a modified stripper
assembly that allows you to punch angles in the leg up position. The length of
the punch used within the LUPPS attachment varies depending on the model of Geka
Ironworker. We stock round punches in the 78MM and 97MM overall lengths. We can
manufacture any shape or size upon request. Check out the video below and contact the Green Team today with
any questions or to place an order!

Geka Offset Tooling
The offset tooling set up in a Geka Hyd. 55 A |
Is your ironworker a Geka
Hydrocrop 55, 80 or 110? If so, your machine can hold our Geka offset tooling
to easily punch holes in angle. In order to use the offset punch and die holder
you will need to remove the die reducer from the die block, insert the die
spacer, then insert the offset die holder. For the punch portion, the punch
ring (GKA3) for the F-26 punch will be used. The offset punch holder will drop
into the sleeve and be screwed into the coupling nut to lock in the machine.
The two different offset die holders, punch holder and a few punches and dies. |
Once the offset holders are in
place, the punch and die can be inserted. The Geka offset tooling is a 12MM
straight shank punch and a 35MM outside diameter die. The max material that can
be punch is 1/8” stainless steel or ¼” mild steel. Cleveland Punch stocks the
holders along with the round punches and dies. Watch the video below to see the
offset tooling in action. Contact your Green Team representative today to start
using offset tooling to punch angles!

Baileigh U-Bending Punch & Die
The engineering team here at CPD is kept busy with different special applications every day. Recently we manufactured a U-Bending punch for a Baileigh ironworker. This punch and die will be used on the punch end of the ironworker in the standard tooling set up.
The customer will place their material over the die and cycle the machine. When the machine has completed its cycle, the piece of material will be U-shaped and the operator can move to the next step in their production.
