Soon to be installed, the machine will be bending parts for the transportation industry.<\/p>\n<p>Servo-controlled with advanced hydraulics and electronics, the custom press brake can form parts up to 12 meters long. The machine has an opening table\/ram of 1070 mm, cylinder stroke of 600 mm and a gap of 1000 mm. It features heavy-duty CNC sheet followers T1-T2-T3, each supporting a maximum 600 kg, adjustable along the length of the press brake for handling large plate material. It is equipped with a 9-axis heavy back gauge and automatic programmable bed crowning. The machine is also designed for a tandem set up with a PPEB-H 640-ton 4.5-meter press brake.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sophisticated features<br \/>\n<\/strong>Modern technology and material handling options make the job of bending heavy plate easier.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>LVD\u2019s Easy-Form\u00ae in-process angle monitoring and correction system adapts the ram position in real-time to ensure precise, consistent bending.
