LVD PPEB press brakes represent the latest technology in press brake automation, providing industry with the means to respond to an ever evolving marketplace. Features such as these help PPEB press brakes lead the way in process automation.
Powerful CADMAN Touch PC-based Windows Control ensures fail-safe operation of the machine while offering the operator considerable assistance in part programming. Exclusive CADMAN-B 3D bending software allows automatic programming of the part and precise determination of the blank size. Bending sequences are automatically determined from the user-drawn 2D part created with the simple to use graphics editor. All axes of the press brake, including the CNC crowning system, are calculated by the control and are automatically positioned for optimum bending results. 2D & 3D color graphics simulate part creation and display material handling sequencing for optimum part production. Tool Libraries and interactive databases are maintained automatically for application of the precise bend allowance factors and angle correction values, ensuring accurate first time bends with minimal or no trial bending. CADMAN Touch control provides the fastest and most accurate way to produce parts on a press brake today. Press brakes up to 400 tons are designed and built utilizing a welded one-piece frame, machined without repositioning guaranteeing machine precision. Hydraulic cylinders are machined from a solid steel billet. Double bed referenced encoders are connected to the bed in such a way that deformation of the side frames during bending does not influence the positioning accuracy of the upper beam (Y1, Y2).
Laser sensing mechanism tracks the plate during the bending process and transmits the digital information in real time to the CADMAN Touch control unit. The CNC unit processes the information and subsequently recalculates the depth adjustment to obtain the correct angle in real time with no process interruption and no loss of production time. CNC crowning ensures the ram and table are parallel during the bending operation. Sheet thickness, length, die opening and tensile strength data are entered into the control. Force and related deflection of the table and ram are automatically determined; preloading is optimally obtained for each bend.
The LVD PPEB-125 is a solid 8-Axis CNC press brake controlled by the CADMAN Touch with a 5-Axis back gauge.
