Punching mounting holes at line speed
The Crest Inline Hole Punching Unit is a universal punching station that punches mounting holes into license plates during production, at full line speed. Designed for seamless inline integration, it removes a manual finishing step and guarantees identical hole positions on every plate.
How the unit works
Plates pass through the punching station, where the configured hole pattern is punched in one stroke. Because the unit runs inline, hole punching adds no extra cycle time and no separate handling.
Key benefits
- Mounting holes punched at full line speed
- Configurable hole patterns for different markets
