Compatible with punching station, shearing station and tool table.

Multi-Loc Punch Gauging Table

An economically priced solution for punching equally distanced holes on lengths of material. There are both 36" and 85" Extensions Available.

24" x 5' Conveyor with Angle Iron Support 

Useful for longer lengths of that need to be supported as the are feed through shear. Can be coupled with a back gauge to reduce measuring and labor requirements.
