Design and Innovation
Design Concepts:
- Highest Accuracies and Repeatability (< 0.05 mm)
- Short Changeover Times through "Quick-Change" Tooling Concepts
- Left / Right Bending with multi stack tooling and single or dual bend heads
- Tube processing systems, up to 60mm (2.40) diameters, for most materials
- Low energy consumption (i.e., 3 KW for Benders up to 20mm / .787" capacity)
- Compact Design / Small Footprint
- No oil / vapor contamination
- Low noise (db) level
- Free-Programmable Bend Velocities to achieve highest process accuracies relative to tube material & tube geometry requirements
- Free programmable / "Closed-Loop" pressure settings for Follower & Clamp Die Tooling Functions
- Ease of programming and program storage (MS-NT software platform)
- PC based, Off-line Programming
- Storage and management of application specific data, including part numbers and relevant machine parameters
- Bus-based networking between individual machines / system modules
- High machine / system flexibility (Systems are field upgradeable)
- In-Line bend angle measurement with closed loop correction for "under-bend" conditions
- "First off" Programming Support based on available in-house bend data (i.e., bend angle settings vs. tube material, vs. tube geometry)
- "Reverse Engineering", using standard 3-D measuring system download feature
- Worldwide Programming Support and Program Exchange, via (Internet / DSL) "Remote Support Interface"
- Extensive integrated System Diagnostics and System Maintenance Data
- Worldwide Service Support
