An electric broaching press 1 with electric cylinder 4 having a ball nut assembly with internal linear guide way support 5 is presented herewith. The ball nut assembly 5 is driven by electric motor 2 through set of pullies 4a. Rotational motion generated by the electric motor 2 is transmitted into linear motion by a ball screw and nut assembly 8. The ball screw and nut assembly 8 comprises a ball nut 8a, a ball nut housing 8b, and a ball screw 8c. The ball screw 8c transmits the rotational energy in to linear energy to a piston rod 12. The piston rod 12 causes vertical displacement and is attached to a cantilever support structure 20a holding broach tool to carry out broaching operation.

A method for shaping a blind slot in a workpiece includes using a standard computer numerical controlled machine center to radially step a single slot broaching tool into a precursor slot in the workpiece for a predetermined distance to form a slot with a blind end. After the slot with the blind end is formed, the method includes rotating at least one of the workpiece and the single slot broaching tool and radially stepping the single slot broaching tool into another precursor slot for another predetermined distance to form another slot with another blind end in the workpiece. The another predetermined distance is the same as the predetermined distance, or in the alternative, the another predetermined distance is different than the predetermined distance.
