Mechanical gouging machines are a type of machine tool used for gouging holes and recesses in metal plates and sheets. They are also known as mechanical punches or punching machines. These machines consist of a punching die, which consists of an upper punch and a lower die holder that face each other. The material to be processed is positioned between the two parts, and a mechanical device, usually operated by a crank or lever, moves the punch down and punches the material through the workpiece. Mechanical punch-out machines can be used in a variety of applications, including the production of metal parts for the automotive, aerospace, machine building and other industrial applications. They have the advantage of operating quickly and providing high precision and repeatability in the production of holes and recesses in materials. However, mechanical punch-out machines tend to be less efficient than hydraulic or pneumatic punches, which can punch larger holes in thicker materials. They also often require more manual adjustments and settings to produce different sizes of holes and notches.
