Press brakes offer new features PDF Print E-mail
TRUMPF’s TruBend Series 5000 precision press brakes feature new enhancements designed to further improve productivity and efficiency in bending.  These enhancements include a new visual setup and positioning aid and the new Mobile Control. The visual setup and positioning aid is comprised of a large number of LED lights positioned in 1mm increments integrated in the cover of the upper tool clamp. During tool setup the visual setup aid indicates the positions where the bending tools should be loaded. The operator inserts the tools at the location of the LED lights rather than having to read the setup sheet and then locate the tools according to the scale on the machine. Productivity during the bending process is further increased by the visual positioning aid. It clearly identifies the next bend location, eliminating mistakes and constant reference to the control or setup sheet. Another enhancement to the TruBend Series 5000 is its new Mobile Control. It is an operation module which can be mounted in the ACB preparation rail in the milled channel on the ram.
