Wems MP100 Electromagnetic Punch Press with Foot Pedal Control Light Duty
The Wems MP100 is a benchtop electromagnetic punch press designed for light-duty hole punching applications. It uses an electromagnetic solenoid mechanism to drive the punch on activation, triggered via the included foot pedal for hands-free, repeatable operation. Built by Wems Inc. of Hawthorne, California, the MP100 is a compact, floor-or-bench-mountable unit suited for punching thin materials such as light sheet metal, leather, plastics, gasket material, and similar substrates.

Applications
Electromagnetic bench punch presses like the Wems MP100 are used in light fabrication, electronics assembly, leatherworking, gasket cutting, and similar trades where clean, repeatable hole punching of thin materials is needed. The foot pedal activation is common in production and assembly environments where operators need both hands free to position and hold the workpiece. The MP100's compact benchtop footprint makes it practical for small shops, prototype areas, and light-production workstations. Wems Inc. was a California-based manufacturer of specialty industrial tools primarily serving the light-manufacturing and electronics industries, and the MP100 dates from that mid-twentieth-century era of American bench-tool manufacturing.
This Wems MP100 Electromagnetic Punch Press has been inspected and appears to be in good used condition. The unit shows normal wear consistent with prior use — the gray painted housing has light scuffs and surface wear, and the nameplate on the side shows edge wear and peeling at the corners. The punch tip, die block, toggle switch, and red power button are all present and intact. The foot pedal and power cable with twist-lock plug are included. This unit was not powered or tested at our facility, but came out of a working environment where it was previously in use. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
