8. Key Points PEM 3000
PC based windows operating platforms. Similar capability to Haeger’s control
4-station servo-driven QX lower tool holder system, all tools present from Step to step (similar to the Haeger TIS turret system) Limited Part clearance
Lower tools rotate on a solid round disc which can hamper part accessibility Possibly causing multiple part handling
Single Auto-feed system is optional and mounted on machine. Additional Auto-feed systems are mounted on mobile carts (20”W x 31”L) taking up much needed space and cumbersome tooling set-up
LIGHTSTREAM safety system must be set-up per job and steps whether auto-feeding or manual tooling applications. No safety system unless it is set-up (Sets up like the Haeger TPS (tool protection system)
Longer auto-feed tooling set-ups and not as reliable and flexible as Haeger tooling. Limited special Auto-feed tooling availability
Ram is set back further than Haeger and PEM operators complain about the controls being right in their faces
Decreased life span on servo driven Ram
Auto feed tooling difficult to set up

9. Key Points PEM 2000

Optional single Auto-feed system and optional manual 4-station lower tool turret. (Fingers cannot be removed for greater accessibility on complex parts)
Ram force: hydra-pneumatic (air-over-oil) can be a maintenance nightmare.
Single Auto-feed system is optional and mounted on machine. Additional Auto-feed systems are mounted on mobile carts (20”W x 31”L) taking up much needed space and cumbersome tooling set-up.
