Operation without expert knowledge

Unparalleled in the sector - our digital controls are suitable for all operators. They allow handling of profile bending machines and precise bending after just a short training period and without any programming skills.

Using a modern multi-touch display, even complex bending programs can be prepared, managed and executed comfortably. Here the graphic display of the programmed workpiece allows visual inspection of the programmed data; notes and information on the process are available to everyone via PDF documentation.

In addition, our uncompromising profile bending machine control system PC400 can be utilized as a central controlling hub for machine periphery (supplementary modules, robots, saws, MMS etc.).

    If you’ve ever tried bending tubes with channels for LEDs or glass panels in 3D, you know it’s not exactly a walk in the park. Keeping the channel perfectly at 90° over the entire pitch can be pretty tricky - but with the TBD4, it’s a piece of cake. 🙌 Our CNC controlled 3D bending unit is built precisely for these kinds of challenging profiles, giving operators the precision and repeatability they need without the usual headaches. ⚠️ Warning: The video is surprisingly satisfying to watch.
