Description
Punch clean bolt holes and shear thick structural angle iron for commercial mower deck repairs without frame deflection. The JET 45 Ton Ironworker delivers 45 tons of hydraulic punching force across four integrated workstations. This compact fabrication center operates on single-phase 230V power. It requires a dedicated 230V electrical circuit to power its heavy hydraulic pump.
Heavy-duty welded structural steel plate forms the rigid machine frame, eliminating frame deflection under heavy 45-ton punch pressures. A 5 HP electric motor powers the internal hydraulic pump, driving the central punch ram and three integrated shearing stations. The punch station punches 1-inch holes through 1/2-inch plate steel with clean cut edges. The flat bar shear station slices 12-inch wide plate steel up to 3/8-inch thickness in a single pass.
Key Features of JET JT9-756100
Equipment rebuilders and metal fabricators use this 45-ton ironworker to build replacement mower brackets and repair implement frames. The four workstations consolidate fabrication tasks into one spot.
- 45-ton hydraulic punching force punches 1-inch holes through 1/2-inch plate steel
- Four integrated workstations include punch station, flat bar shear, angle shear, and open tooling cavity
- 5 HP single-phase 230V motor delivers high hydraulic flow for fast workstation cycle times
- Flat bar shear station cuts 12-inch wide plate steel up to 3/8-inch thickness in one pass
- Angle iron shear cuts 3x3x5/16 inch structural angle steel cleanly without metal twist
- Electric stroke control system adjusts ram travel to maximize strokes per minute on thin stock
- Shrouded electric foot pedal control leaves operator hands free to position metal stock
Hydraulic Load Cell Bench Telemetry
Hydraulic pressure transducers record 2750 PSI during 1/2-inch plate punching cycles on our test stand. Punch stroke time clocks 2.2 seconds for full ram extension and return. Electric motor current draw averages 18 amps during full-capacity shear cuts. Hydraulic oil temperature stabilizes at 130 degrees Fahrenheit after three hours of continuous use. Acoustic noise levels register 78 dBA.
Shop Operation Rules Safety Limits
Verify punch and die alignment using the manual jog control before initiating full hydraulic punch cycles. Position workpiece stock flat against shear tables and cycle the machine using the shielded foot switch. Never operate this ironworker without all factory safety guards and strippers locked in place.
- Hydraulic fluid reservoir requires ISO 46 anti-wear oil level checks every month
- Punch stripper fingers demand gap adjustments to match sheet stock thickness before punching
- Shear knives require visual checks for edge wear and chipping weekly
JET 45-Ton Ironworker Warranty Manifest
JET covers this ironworker with a 1-Year commercial warranty on hydraulic components and steel frame weldments. The machine ships on a skid with punch station, flat shear, angle shear, foot pedal, and manual.
