Bending

Bending is a procedure for forming a flat, sheet metal workpiece. It immediately follows cutting in the processing chain. The workpiece lies on a bottom tool with a v-shaped opening. A wedge-shaped tool (punch) presses the workpiece into the v-opening and thus bends it to the desired angle.

Dynamic crowning

Bystronic has long used dynamic crowning on the Xpert model range pressbrakes. This unique compensation system adjusts the curvature of the lower beam automatically during bending. State-of-the-art dynamic crowning makes this correction in real time and with the latest sensors. Users can therefore achieve exact, constant bending results, and this even with bent parts that are more than 3 meters long.

Precision

Precision is the most important yardstick for pressbrakes. Slight deviations from the desired bending angle are physically unavoidable. The bending angle can either be basically inexact or can vary across the entire bending length. During air bending, compensation systems balance out these errors. Bystronic uses the unique hydraulic dynamic crowning technique on its pressbrakes: The stamp and die are specifically curved to balance out the deformation caused by the bending process.
