Overview of fully automatic to manual panel benders

Model A-BA

The panel bender model series A-BA are robust all-round machines with flexible range of applicationbut ideal for the production of ventilation ducts.

The bending cycle runs fully automatically, the bending parameters are set bending parameters (cycle time preselection via database for PE / PP / PVC-U / PVDF).

The A-BA model has a position drive with PLC control.
This includes an automatic sequence of up to 6 bends on one workpiece.
The leg lengths are entered digitally via the display.

This machine is available in the following versions: 2m and 3m.
The maximum material thickness that can be processed is 25 mm.

Model A-BW

The A-BW model series is a semi-automatic series.
The bending cycle runs automatically.
The bending times are set via the display.
All entered values can be changed by the operator.

The bending radius are set manually using a bending line correction.
This enables infinitely adjustable bending angles from 10° – 95°. The machine works without the usual plate transport, as the heating process and bending take place in one position.
This allows simple and user-friendly handling of the machine.

This machine is available in the following versions: Working widths in 1m, 2m, 3m and 4m.
Material thickness to be processed up to 25 mm.

Manual bending machine model BH

The manual bending machine BHis the perfect solution as an entry-level model or for portable requirements.
The machine consists of a heating table for heating the material and a bending table for bending the previously heated material. The angle adjustment is infinitely variable from 10° – 120°. The bending cycle is carried out manually.

This machine is available in the following versions: Working widths in 1m, 1.5m and 2m.
Material thickness to be processed up to 12 mm.

General information about Panel bender

A sheet bending machine, also known as a press brake or folding machine, is a machine tool used for bending plastics.

How it works:

The panel bending machine is designed to bend flat panels or sheets into specific shapes.
It usually consists of a fixed upper cheek and a movable lower cheek.
The material to be bent is placed between these two cheeks.
By lowering the upper cheek, the plastic is pressed against the lower cheek and bent in the process.

Features of a panel bender:

Bending force:
Plate bending machines are available in various sizes and with different bending forces to meet the requirements of different thicknesses and materials.
Cheek length:
The length of the cheeks determines the maximum length of the material to be bent. There are machines with short cheeks for smaller jobs and machines with longer cheeks for larger dimensions.
CNC control:
State-of-the-art panel benders are often equipped with CNC controls that enable precise bending processes and can produce complex shapes with a high degree of accuracy.
Tool change:
Panel bending machines can be equipped with various bending tools to produce different bending profiles and radii. A quick tool change enables flexible adaptation to different requirements.
Backgauge:
A back gauge is an adjustable element that determines the position of the material to be bent. It enables precise and repeatable bending processes.

Applications:

Panel benders are used in various industries and applications, including:

Metal processing:
For the production of parts, housings, ducts and other components.
Construction:
For the production of building components for the construction industry, such as roof cladding and facades.
Automotive industry:
For the production of body parts, trim and other components in automotive manufacturing.
Electronics industry:
For the production of housings, casings and components for electronic devices.
aviation industry:
In the manufacture of components for aircraft and spacecraft.

The panel bender plays a crucial role in processing and enables the precise production of formed components for various applications.
