Our best estimate for a cnc punch presse in this class — not a quote from Bystronic. Configuration moves it a long way.
Overview
The Bystronic ByTower is a sheet storage tower, not a machine that punches or cuts. It keeps sheet in cassettes and handles both loading and unloading for a nominal sheet size of 3000 × 1500 mm. Bystronic gives three versions: 11 / 8 / 6 cassettes, with system heights of 5.6 m / 4.5 m / 3.8 m listed in the same order.
Building height is therefore the first thing to settle. The tallest tower stores the most material on the same floor area but needs clearance for 5.6 m, while the 3.8 m version fits a lower hall and gives up cassettes to do so.
Load and unload thickness are both 0.8–25 mm, so the tower moves thin sheet and heavy plate through the same system, and finished sheets can go back in over the same range. Maximum sheet weight is 890 kg. Bystronic's table states no cassette load, cycle time or floor dimensions, so ask for those along with which machines the tower can be attached to.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- Three versions with 11 / 8 / 6 cassettes, so storage can be matched to the hall
- Loads and unloads the same 0.8–25 mm thickness range
- Handles single sheets up to 890 kg at a nominal 3000 × 1500 mm
Limitations
- The largest version stands 5.6 m high, which rules out low buildings
- Nominal sheet size is 3000 × 1500 mm only; no larger format is listed
- No cassette capacity or floor dimensions are stated, so the layout cannot be planned from the table alone

Frequently Asked Questions
01
Bystronic lists 11 / 8 / 6 cassettes against system heights of 5.6 m / 4.5 m / 3.8 m. The rows are given in the same order, so the choice of cassette count follows from the height the building allows.
02
The nominal sheet size is 3000 × 1500 mm. Sheet metal thickness is 0.8–25 mm for loading and the same 0.8–25 mm for unloading, and the maximum sheet weight is 890 kg.
03
System height is 5.6 m / 4.5 m / 3.8 m depending on the version. Those are the heights of the system itself, so allow for installation and service clearance above them and confirm the requirement with Bystronic.
