Turret Punch Press Repeatability Tolerance
Turret Punch Press Repeatability Tolerance
(OP)
Hi,
We have an Amada VIPROS 357 Queen Turret Punch Press. Listed in the manufacturer specifications is a "Repeatability" tolerance of +/-.001. Can someone explain what this repeatability tolerance really means? I am trying to determine the overall tolerance of the machine combining Punch Accuracy and Repeatability. They also list a value called "Positioning Accuracy" which is, according to Amada, a meaningless number to the end user. That number is describing the positional tolerance of the servos and is not accounting for all of the mechanical components attached to them (and their corresponding tolerances).
Thanks for your help.
