PAXY Plate Processor

PAXY Plate Processor

Description

The PAXY series from GEKA offers automated punching, marking, and drilling of steel plates with high precision and speed. Its robust frame and servo-driven axes ensure accurate positioning, while the punching unit can be configured with up to three selectable punches.
With a CNC control and intuitive software, the PAXY is ideal for manufacturers needing flexibility and repeatability. Available in various sizes, it suits sectors like steel construction, heavy fabrication, energy, and infrastructure.
