Description
e PUN M™ is designed to punch ngers on the ends of
lightweight thermoplastic conveyor belts as a preparation for
making nger- or nger-over-nger splices.
e Pun M is manually operated and does not need electricity
or air pressure for its operation. e punching force of
11,000lbs. (50 kN) is created by pulling the lever and is easily
done with one hand by an average person. Because of its easy
set-up and manual operation, the PunM is an ideal tool for
working on location, as well as in a workshop.
Although all punchboards of the Pun M have a specied net
width, the open construction of the frame allows belts of
larger widths to be punched with these machines.
With one lever pull, a nger punch of 90 mm wide can be
made (based on 50 × 20 ngers for nger-overlap-nger
splicing) or 60 mm wide (based on 80 × 20 or 70 × 15 ngers
for single nger splicing). e maximum thickness is up to
5mm for light weight belting.
