Accurpress ETS 3000 press brake tooling replacement

What tooling does an Accurpress ETS 3000 use?

The Accurpress ETS 3000 is cnc control generation and is commonly supplied with the American 1/2 in (12.7 mm) shank. Confirm by measuring the tang and inspecting the clamp, because machines within the same series have been delivered with more than one interface over the production life of the range.

What is specific to the Accurpress ETS 3000?

ETS 3000 refers to the control generation rather than a mechanical change, so tooling is specified by the fitted holder as with other American style machines.

• Record the machine model as well as the interface; it helps match the original specification.
• Where automation or tool changing is fitted, the handling interface matters as much as the tang.
• Segment combinations are specified per machine, because bed length varies within a series.

How do I confirm the interface on an Accurpress ETS 3000?

These four observations settle the interface on almost every machine without a site visit.

1. Measure the tang width across its widest point.
2. Measure the punch overall height from the shoulder to the tip.
3. Look for locking pin holes or a retention groove, which indicate a safety tang.
4. Measure the die body width and photograph the clamp with a ruler in shot.
