What are the functions of punch tools?

Punch tools are utilized to create and form objects by punching them from a piece of material. This can be done with various types of punches such as die-punching, slitting punches, and scoring punches.

Die-punching Punches are the most popular type and they utilize an air pressure or hydraulic mechanism to make tiny holes of different shapes on a single substrate. Slitting Punches operate similarly, but utilize a blade instead the hydraulic or air pressure mechanism to create long, long strips of a single object. Scoring Punches cut thin grooves in another object with bent blades that score the surface, rather than pierce it completely.
