Key Features
Intelligent CNC automation
High-speed folding performance
Dynamic multi-axis movement
Low-noise hydraulic system
Automated material handling
Advanced graphical programming
Synchronized Drive-Shaft Technology
The synchronized control drive-shaft system provides smooth, stable, and highly accurate folding performance. Its robust design improves long-term machine reliability and supports continuous, high-volume production.
Optimised Working-Area Design
The machine features 35° upper and lower clamping tools combined with a 15° folding-beam recess. This design improves accessibility, increases forming flexibility, and simplifies the handling of complex workpieces.
Dynamic Folding System
Multiple machine axes can operate simultaneously, reducing repositioning time and shortening production cycles. This coordinated movement significantly improves overall efficiency and productivity.
CNC-Controlled Material Thickness Adjustment
The clamping tools are automatically positioned according to the programmed sheet thickness. This ensures consistent bending accuracy while helping protect the machine and tooling from incorrect setup.
Advanced Hydraulic System
The low-noise hydraulic system operates at approximately 72 dB and uses independently controlled servo-proportional valves. This provides smooth, precise, safe, and reliable machine movement.
Backgauge and Material-Gripping System
A high-speed material gripper with vacuum assistance ensures accurate positioning and reliable handling, including for complex or partially folded components.
Automatic Tapered Backgauge
The fully automatic tapered backgauge supports programmable left-to-right offset adjustment, enabling the production of tapered and non-parallel components without manual repositioning.
Graphical CNC Controller
The intuitive touchscreen controller provides graphical programming, automatic folding-sequence generation, and collision simulation. This simplifies operation, reduces programming time, and improves production safety.
Integrated Electric Slitter
The integrated electric slitting system allows trimming and dimensional correction during production. It helps compensate for layout variations while reducing unnecessary loading on the folding beam.
Automatic Extendable Sheet Loading and Support
The servo-driven, programmable sheet-support system automatically extends to assist with loading and supporting large sheets. This improves material stability, operator safety, and handling efficiency.
Automatic Side-Loading System
The automatic side-loading device can load individual sheets or multiple sheets, supporting continuous production and reducing manual material-handling requirements.
Automatic Part Flipper
The automatic part-flipping system enables double-sided folding without manual intervention. It increases automation, reduces operator workload, and improves the efficiency of complex folding operations.
