Features
A special numeric-control system is fitted with the mainframe of the bending machine.
The multi-work-step programming function is able to achieve an automatic operation and continuous positioning of multi-step procedures, as well as an automatic precision adjustment for positions of rear stopper and gliding block.
The machine is provided with a bend counting function, for a real-time display of processing quantity and power-failure memory of positions of stopper and gliding block, as well as procedures and parameters.
Imported ball bearing lead screw and linear guide rail are used for the rear stopper, to ensure the positioning precision of the rear stopper, for the processing precision of the machine to be higher.
A CNC press brake is a highly advanced and computer-controlled machine used in metal fabrication and sheet metal bending processes. It is designed for precise and efficient bending of sheet metal and plate materials into various shapes and angles. Here's an overview of the key features and functions of a CNC press brake:
Structure: A CNC press brake typically consists of a sturdy frame, a bending beam (or ram), a back gauge system, and a worktable with tooling. The bending beam is the moving part that applies force to bend the metal, while the back gauge system helps position the workpiece accurately.
CNC Control: The heart of the CNC press brake is its computer numerical control (CNC) system. This sophisticated control system allows operators to program and control the bending process with precision. Operators can input parameters such as bend angle, bend length, material thickness, and tooling information into the CNC control panel.
Tooling: The press brake uses a variety of tooling, including punches and dies, to shape the metal. Different tool sets are used for various bending operations, such as air bending, bottom bending, and coining. Tool changes can be automated or manual, depending on the press brake's capabilities.
Bending Process: To perform a bending operation, the operator loads a sheet metal workpiece onto the worktable and uses the CNC control to set the desired bend parameters. The CNC press brake then automatically positions the back gauge and moves the bending beam to the specified angle, accurately bending the workpiece.
Precision and Accuracy: CNC press brakes are known for their high precision and repeatability. They can achieve precise bend angles and maintain consistent results, even with complex geometries. The CNC control system ensures that each bend is performed according to the programmed specifications.
Versatility: CNC press brakes are versatile machines that can handle a wide range of materials, including steel, aluminum, stainless steel, and more. They are used in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, construction, and manufacturing.
Safety Features: CNC press brakes are equipped with safety features to protect operators and prevent accidents. These features may include light curtains, emergency stop buttons, interlocking systems, and safety-rated controls.
Productivity and Efficiency: CNC press brakes can significantly improve productivity and reduce setup times compared to manual press brakes. They can store multiple bending programs, allowing for quick changeovers between different jobs.
Overall, CNC press brakes are essential tools in modern metal fabrication, offering precision, efficiency, and versatility in bending sheet metal and plate materials to meet the demands of various industries.
