Long term reader but this is my first post.
I'd like to know about the turret punch lessons you had that you wished you had learnt earlier because the company I'm a part of is considering purchasing one.
We have an opportunity to buy an early 90's Amada Vipros 357 Queen. It appears to be in pretty good shape and comes with a tool grinder and bunch of material. The seller is extremely motivated (plant shutdown) and we can get the entire spread for about $6000 above the cost of the material. I realize it depends on condition but what are these machines worth?
The bulk of our market will be dimpled/perforated steps, louvred machine enclosures and custom safety guards in 14GA mild steel and .125 aluminum. Will we have any trouble dimpling or punch small louvres in those thicknesses of mild steel or aluminum?
