It's familiar story. Press brake operators taking up to half an hour to set up the machine with long planer made tools and constantly having to make adjustments and re-alignments in order to bend accurate parts. Wila American Vintage punches and dies are precision ground, segmented, and CNC-Hardened to provide fast set up and long term accuracy - at very attractive pricing!
American Vintage Punches can be used directly in the press brake ram.
American Vintage punches have the standard 0.500" American tang width and can be mounted in the standard American press brake ram and secured with the machine clamping plates. All Vintage punches with weight of 28 lbs. or less come with Wila's patented Safety-Clicks allowing for fast vertical loading.

American Vintage Punches come standard with self-seating grooves.
Improve set-up time even further by using a Wila American Hydraulic Clamping System with the American Vintage tooling. With the self- seating grooves built into every Vintage punch tang, all punches in the machine are automatically clamped, seated, and aligned in seconds by the push of a single button.
Main benefits of American Vintage tools versus planer made tooling:
Flexibility – all punches and dies are segmented in lengths
of 20” or shorter. Achieve any bending length of ¾” to machine
length in ¼” increments.
Speed – all punch segments with weight of 28 lbs. or less
come with Safety-Clicks for fast vertical loading.
Accuracy – all tools are hardened and then precision ground
to +/- 0.0008”. Tool segments are interchangeable and
guaranteed to match up.
Durability – tools are CNC-Hardened at the bending
radii to minimum Rockwell HRC-52 to a minimum depth of
0.080” avoiding the need to replace tools prematurely or
having issues with worn punch tips or V-die shoulders.
Safety – all punches include patented Safety-Clicks or fixed
safety keys.
Ergonomics – short modular tools provide low tool weight
and easy one operator handling. No more using fork lifts
or two operators to load tools.
Lower Overall Cost – tools are pre-segmented. Purchase
just the tool length you need and add lengths as required as
tools are guaranteed to match up. No more purchasing long
tools and cutting them to length. CNC-Hardening process
maintains accuracy 6 – 8 times longer than unhardened tools.
