Busbar Punchers

Function and principle of busbar punchers

During punching, the busbar is positioned between die and punch. When the hand pump or external hydraulic pump is actuated, the punch is driven through the material into the die, producing the required hole. The result is a precise hole with clean edges and minimal burr.

Typical applications

Busbar punching tools are used in:

• switchgear and control panel manufacturing
• production of busbars for transformers and substations
• electrical installation and distribution board assembly
• maintenance and modification of existing switchgear

Benefits of hydraulic busbar punchers

• high punching capacity for thick copper and aluminium bars
• accurate hole sizes and repeatable hole patterns
• less noise, no sparks and fewer chips than drilling
• choice of portable hand tools or stationary machines

Selecting the right busbar punching tool

When selecting a busbar puncher, consider:

• maximum bar width and thickness (Cu/Al)
• required hole shapes and diameters (round, slotted)
• drive type – hand hydraulic, external pump or stationary unit
• whether the main use is on site or in the workshop
