An essential for projects of every nature
CNC punching is a game-changer in the world of sheet metal finishing. It’s not just about cutting metal; it’s about precision, efficiency, and delivering results that meet exact specifications. Whether you’re in the automotive, construction, or electronics industry, the need for accurate and reliable punching is critical. PKD Precision Sheet Metal Ltd understands the challenges of maintaining quality while meeting tight deadlines. That’s why we’ve invested in state-of-the-art CNC technology to ensure every project is completed to the highest standard. From intricate designs to large-scale production, our CNC punching services are designed to save you time, reduce waste, and deliver exceptional results every time.
Introducing TRUMPF Trumatic 3000 R
Ensuring every punch is precise, every cut is clean, and every component meets your exact specifications is a standard that we maintain with the TRUMPF Trumatic 3000 R. This innovative machine allows for high speed punching and forming, intelligently utilising every inch of the sheet to reduce component costs and wastage.
Off-machine programming allows for faster set-up, meaning we can get your components to you even quicker.


Another masterpiece from TRUMPF, the S11 with automation
With the ability to automatically load raw materials and unload finished parts, this machinery allows us to produce units at a high rate, without cutting corners. The advanced form-tool technology can be used for thread forming, embossing, bridges, hinges and more, versatility that's a must for the range of sectors we support. We understand that each project is unique, and this excellent piece of kit allows us to offer tailored solutions to meet your specific needs. Want to learn more?

CNC punching capabilities for sheet metal components
CNC punching gives sheet metal a range of practical features without adding separate pieces to the finished component. We incorporate openings for airflow, cable access, fasteners, and component mounting directly into the design. Meanwhile, metal perforation creates consistent patterns of openings where ventilation or access is required. For products such as equipment housings and delivery lockers, the position and pattern of these features can matter just as much as the overall shape. A well-planned punched component makes assembly easier and gives the finished product a cleaner, more considered appearance.
PKD Precision Sheet Metal Ltd works from customer drawings and specifications, taking into account how each component functions once it leaves the workshop. This approach proves useful when a design has unusual apertures or features that need to align with another manufactured part.
CNC punching frequently forms part of a wider fabrication project. For example, a punched component often requires bending or laser welding services before it becomes part of the finished assembly. Planning those stages together avoids design changes further down the line. For companies looking for CNC punching services, discussing the intended application during the quotation stage helps identify practical manufacturing options. PKD also advises on requirements before work begins, giving customers a clearer understanding of what is involved.
Based in Stoke-on-Trent, PKD Precision Sheet Metal Ltd supports customers with sheet metal requirements from individual components through to large production runs.
