[0002] A punch press is a stamping press. Stamping production is mainly for sheet metal. Through the stamping die (die), blanking, punching, forming, drawing, trimming, fine blanking, shaping, riveting and extrusion can be made, etc., which are widely used in various fields. For example, the switches, sockets, cups, cupboards, plates, computer cases, and even missile aircraft we use... There are many accessories that can be produced by a punch press through a die. The material is placed on the die, and the machine applies pressure to deform it. The reaction force caused by the force applied to the material during processing is absorbed by the punch machine body.

[0003] When stamping a workpiece, it is usually manually sent to the stamping station of the punch press and fixed by hand to facilitate stamping, but this practice has been eliminated by castings because it is not safe and efficient. At present, the workpiece is mostly clamped by a cylinder to fix the workpiece on the die. However, this clamping method generally requires an air source to drive the cylinder, which requires high working conditions. In addition, as a processing equipment with huge production volume, the punch press consumes a large amount of air in the cylinder, which is not conducive to energy saving and consumption reduction.
