The main differences between the 5-tool and 7-tool heads for the ATOM FlashCut series are as follows:
5-Tool Head
· Offers a versatile combination of tools that includes:
Total cutting, score cutting (partial depth), and kiss cutting with one module.
Two auxiliary stations that can be equipped with rotating punches for precise small diameter holes, a creaser wheel, or a kiss cutting knife.
A 4th station with a marking pen for applying part numbers and trademarks.
A 5th non-rotating punch station used for lightweight materials.
· Designed to provide multi-functional production capabilities suitable for various market sectors.
· Known for robustness and reliability, especially effective for cutting leather, gasket materials, and other heavy materials with good dimensional accuracy and finish.
· Suitable for material thicknesses up to approximately 14 mm on standard FlashCut models, with options for additional vertical stroke for thicker materials.
7-Tool Head
· Includes all the features of the 5-tool head but adds two additional rotating punching-drilling stations.
· These extra punch stations are pneumatically controlled and belt-driven, primarily used for perforating leather or punching small diameter holes in gaskets and textile materials.
· Allows for up to four independent punch tools on a single head, enabling different hole sizes to be produced in the same job.
· Punch sizes range from 0.5 mm to 8 mm and can be made from tungsten carbide or high-speed steel (HSS).
· Provides increased flexibility and functionality for complex punching and drilling operations beyond what the 5-tool head offers.
