Bending system 5000

The economical bending machine with electric drive for tight bending radii

The bending machine with free-standing bending head can be easily converted to right and left bending for difficult geometries. The plug-in bending tools allow quick conversion to other tube sizes. Fast hydraulics to shorten non-productive times is an important factor for series production.

The clamping pressure for the tube clamping can be optimally adjusted. The PLC control (arbitrarily expandable via USB stick) with data memory and latest X2X interface, can accommodate an almost unlimited number of programs for bending angle, linear dimension and twisting angle for max. 50 bending sequences on one tube length. A freely programmable database for up to 200 materials is available for monitoring springback values.

The machine has 2 operating modes: In "Simple bending" the length and twist of the bends to each other are automatically displayed. In the "Controlled bending" mode, the data is stored beforehand and a permanent target/actual comparison is performed during bending.

This excludes incorrect positioning within a tolerance window and thus minimizes the user-related error rate. General error messages are displayed on the large screen with full text. The mandrel retraction is programmable and can be retracted automatically ahead of time when the bending angle is reached.

The compact drive unit with the detachable mandrel carrier offers advantages for use at the assembly site as well as for special designs with a very large tube feed and is also available as a stationary variant with a tidy system for tools and mandrel bars. The low-cost alternative to the fully controlled CNC machine.
