Used Ironworkers, Punching Machines, Notching Machines & Power Presses for Sale in Ireland
We stock a rotating selection of used ironworkers, punch presses, power presses, and notching machines at our Longford facility — sourced from workshop clearances and trade-in programmes across Ireland and inspected before sale.
Multi-function ironworkers in particular represent outstanding value on the used market: a good used Geka, Kingsland, or Piranha machine will typically deliver many years of reliable service at a fraction of the cost of a new equivalent, and the mechanical simplicity of hydraulic ironworkers means they're highly serviceable if and when maintenance is required.

What is an Ironworker?
A hydraulic ironworker is one of the most versatile machines found in a fabrication workshop.
Instead of purchasing separate machines for punching, shearing and notching, an ironworker combines multiple operations into a single compact machine.
Depending on the model, an ironworker can perform:
This versatility makes ironworkers an excellent investment for fabrication businesses looking to maximise productivity while reducing workshop space requirements.

What Should You Consider Before Buying?
Before investing in an ironworker or punching machine, consider:
Punching Capacity: Select a machine capable of punching your maximum material thickness and hole diameter.
Material Thickness: Ensure the machine matches the range of materials you regularly process.
Available Tooling: Consider punch sizes, dies and future tooling requirements.
Hydraulic Capacity: Higher tonnage provides greater versatility and future-proofing.
Production Volume: Higher-volume production may justify larger hydraulic machines or dedicated punching equipment.
Workshop Space: Multi-function ironworkers often reduce the need for several separate machines.

Things To Check When Buying a Used Ironworker
- Punch and die condition — worn or damaged tooling needs replacement before the machine is productive. We supply a range of new punches and dies to suit all ironworkers - from round to slot to off centre punches and dies - lead-time approx 5 days
- Stripper springs and guides — worn guides cause misalignment and rough punched holes.
- Hydraulic seals and fluid condition — hydraulic leaks are common on older machines and should be assessed before purchase.
- Frame and table condition — check for cracks or deformation around the punch station throat.
Every used ironworker and punch press at Kenequip is inspected by our team before going on sale. Where servicing is required, it's carried out before delivery.
Frequently Asked Questions - Fabrication Machinery [FAQS]
Q: What tonnage ironworker do I need? A: This depends on the thickest material you need to punch and shear. As a general guide: 40–60 tonnes covers most light fabrication work up to 10mm plate; 60–100+ tonnes is required for heavier structural steel work.
Q: Do used ironworkers come with tooling? A: Where tooling is included, it's listed with the individual machine. Contact Billy to confirm what punches, dies, and accessories come with a specific machine before purchase. We can supply new punches and dies at an additional cost.
Q: Can I see the machine working before I buy? A: Yes — visit our Longford facility by prior appointment to see machines demonstrated under power.
Q: Do you accept trade-ins on ironworkers? A: Yes. If you have a surplus ironworker or punch press, contact us via the WANTED page → or call Billy directly by clicking here.
