Price estimate

Uncertain

We do not have a price for the Boschert MP 4020 that we can stand behind, so we show no number. Configuration, options and installation move the final price a long way: a quote is the reliable figure.

Overview

The Boschert MP 4020 is a large-format CNC punching machine with a working area of 4,000 x 2,000 mm. It punches with 280 kN, positions at 75 m/min in each axis and reaches 106 m/min with X and Y moving together.

The frame is the notable part. Boschert describes a newly developed O-frame construction and credits it with rigidity and accuracy at the full punching force of 280 kN (28 tons). A closed frame is what makes a working area 2,000 mm deep practical on a punching machine.

Tools are handled by a 12-station automatic tool changer. Punches up to 105 mm in diameter, or any shape within 105 mm, are accepted, and the HDE hydraulics reach 800 strokes/min. As on Boschert's other punching machines, the clamps are ordered for either 7 mm or 12.7 mm sheet. Maximum workpiece weight is 400 kg, twice the 200 kg of the MultiPunch, which fits the larger sheet.

Sheet lengths up to 9,999 mm are processed by repositioning. Boschert names several options: a fiber laser of up to 4 kW, tapping, stud welding and marking functions, and ball transfer or brush tables. The machine weighs 18,000 kg and needs a 25 kVA connection for its 15 kW hydraulic motor, plus air at min. 4 bar. Ask for the installation drawing early; a machine of this size decides the layout of the bay around it.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What sheet size does the Boschert MP 4020 take?

The working area is 4,000 x 2,000 mm, which Boschert gives as the standard sheet size. With the repositioning system, sheet lengths of up to 9,999 mm can be processed. The maximum workpiece weight is 400 kg.

02 How fast is the MP 4020?

Each axis positions at up to 75 m/min and the two together reach 106 m/min. The HDE hydraulics punch at up to 800 strokes/min. Boschert gives a positioning difference of +/- 0.10 mm and a repeatability of +/- 0.03 mm during punching.

03 What tooling does the MP 4020 use?

A 12-station automatic tool changer supplies the punching head. The maximum punching diameter is 105 mm, or any shape within 105 mm. Punching force is 280 kN, and clamps are chosen for sheet of either 7 mm or 12.7 mm.

04 Can the MP 4020 be fitted with a laser?

Yes, as an option. Boschert says a fiber laser system with up to 4 kW power can be integrated so that contours are cut on the same machine. Tapping, stud welding and marking functions are also optional, and ball transfer or brush tables are available.
