Production efficiency is the core indicator for measuring card production capacity and cost control, which is affected by multi-dimensional factors such as equipment performance, process design, automation level and personnel operation.

Versatility of the Wen Tong card punching machine

      1.The core performance of the equipment directly affects efficiency

High-speed punching capability. Wentong Mechanical card punching machine adopts servo clicking system, and the punching frequency can reach 7500-9000 times, depending on the card size and material, with multi-station molds (such as punching 6-15 cards at a time, the hourly production capacity can reach 45K to 135K. High-speed punching speed means that a large number of orders can be completed in a shorter time, improving production efficiency and meeting market demand.

 

Empty cutting and effective punching ratio: The visual positioning system is used to calibrate the card position in real time, and it has automatic deviation correction to eliminate empty cutting or waste. The effective punching rate is increased from 85% of traditional equipment to more than 98%.

 

Super continuous working ability: long-term stable operation without failure or performance degradation Capacity is also critical. If the punching machine needs to be frequently shut down for cooling and maintenance after working continuously for several hours, it will seriously affect the continuity of the production plan and increase production costs, including equipment idle costs and additional labor costs.

 

2. Positioning accuracy and automatic positioning

 

High-precision cameras (resolution ≥ 5 million pixels) with algorithm optimization can control the positioning time of a single card within 50-100ms, ensuring real-time correction during high-speed movement and avoiding repeated positioning or shutdown due to position deviation.

The intelligent feeding system uses automatic suction cups and heavy card detection, and automatic feeding to achieve automatic alignment and automatic correction of cards, reducing manual material placement time, especially suitable for efficient feeding of special-shaped cards.

Intelligent and accurate positioning

3. Full process automation

 

This card punching machine realizes full-line automated production through fully automatic loading and unloading of trays, automatic feeding of suction cups, automatic visual correction, one-step punching, automatic card sorting, automatic collection of waste and other steps. Only one operator is required for single machine operation. Avoid problems such as manual card sorting, missing cards, sorting errors, etc., and no manual tedious cleaning of waste is required.

 

4. Intelligent efficiency improvement

This machine collects equipment operation data including punching and cutting times, failure rate, energy consumption, etc. through the PLC system, monitors the equipment operation status in real time, and performs timely maintenance and parameter adjustment. Optimize production scheduling, centralize the production of card orders of the same specifications, reduce the frequency of changing molds and debugging machines, and avoid efficiency waste caused by frequent model changes.

 

5. Assembly line coordination

 

The punching machine is linked with the packaging system to achieve post-printing punching and unmanned packaging circulation, reducing manual handling and waiting time in the middle. The punching machine connection can be matched with different packaging systems according to the customer’s production needs, such as cable tie machines, cigarette packaging machines, hot stamping, cartoning machines, etc.

 

6. Material application

 

The whole process of automatic production of card punching machine

Currently, the punching machine is suitable for punching a variety of paper cards and plastic cards, the most common ones are black core paper, PVC, PET, metal foil, etc. For different materials, the feeding speed is dynamically adjusted through the tension sensor to avoid punching and cutting dislocation caused by material stretching and deformation, especially suitable for composite cards (such as high-end cards with film coating)

Although the punching machine is applicable to many products, in order to maximize production efficiency, we still recommend that the machine be used for a dedicated purpose to reduce the time for mold change and adjustment (usually about 40 minutes). Considering the operating cost, one machine can also be used for multiple purposes, mostly for orders with large production demand, and one machine can be equipped with a variety of card layout molds.

In short, the efficiency improvement is mainly the following core paths

 

1. Technology upgrade

   Introduce high-speed servo system, high-precision visual positioning and correction system, fast mold change structure support and technology, break through the bottleneck of traditional card processing machine change production

 

2. Process optimization:

   Through automated connection and intelligent punching and cutting, reduce non-production time waste. One machine can be used for multiple purposes to produce various paper cards, plastic cards, and other cards including punched corners and other special-shaped cards.

 

3. Human-machine collaboration:

   Simplify operation, one machine and one person mode maximizes the equipment operation time.

Through the above equipment performance, the production efficiency of the card punching and cutting machine has increased from 60% to 85%-90%, significantly reducing the production cost of card making, especially for high-end card production scenarios with high precision and production capacity requirements.
