AUTOMATED EDGING WITH THE BENDMASTER

With the BendMaster we close the gap in automated sheet metal production. The BendMaster is a handling unit for bending sheet metal on a TrumaBend V170 press brake.

The BendMaster has 4 axes of rotation and a linear travel axis (floor track). This makes it ideally suited for its tasks and can move heavy and unwieldy parts up to 40kg in weight.

The integrated suction gripper system can be adapted to almost any condition. New to this system are the optical sheet metal detection using camera sensors, the ACB angle measuring system and the TRUTOPS_Bend offline programming system.

The contour of the board is recorded with the camera and the suction gripper is positioned exactly. In addition, an integrated scale ensures that only one circuit board has been picked up. If necessary, a separation mechanism is triggered.

  • Parts must be able to be folded in one pass
