SHEET METAL FOLDING MACHINES

A5CO Maschinenbau GmbH offers two Variobend machines that offer unprecedented efficiency for metal roofing companies and elegant solutions for manufacturers that general sheet metal manufacturers alike. Driven by a passion to innovate and bring the need to bend sheet metal, double bending capability to not only large but also medium and small manufacturers, the engineers at A5CO developed and patented a unique bending system. This system not only offers flexibility and dramatically reduced material handling but is also capable of bending profiles not previously possible.

With precision and attention to detail, all Variobend machines have been beautifully designed and constructed and continue to evolve with close consultation of both present and future clients. Once you see the quality, versatility, and outstanding technical design, you will understand why no other machine can match Variobend on a performance-to-price ratio.

The Variobend touch screen control allows the fast and easy input of new profiles. The input of any number of profiles and folders is done with the fingers in a user-friendly way. The following actions are activated with the buttons: Cutting and Gripper. Operator convenience and software possibilities offer a new standard. Complete folders can be shifted to a USB at a workplace and saved there simply by clicking and shifting. Sophisticated industrial monitors ensure that any finger command is precisely implemented.

Cutting: Prior to bending, the sheet is cut to the calculated dimensions. Gripper: If the machine is equipped with a depth stop with grippers, the profiles can be manufactured fully automatically.

An additional blue profile contour is displayed in simulation mode. The complete bending cycle and the plugging together of profiles can be checked for collision-free operation by pressing the button. In this case, all sides of the Variobend double bending machines with profile are automatically chamfered by one material automatic gripper system. It can also define the position of the grippers and stop hinges.

During the following automatic mode, the operating staff is guided through the complete bending program, and all sheet handling activities such as turning and rotating are displayed optically and with text messages.

The biggest gains in productivity when utilizing the Variobend DB are made when bending heavy, long, and awkward parts. On this type of part, a great deal of time is wasted turning and flipping. In fact, more time is spent handling than on Variobend DB Benders are quoting a minimum doubling and often as much as quadrupling the output on common profiles. Variobend DB technology guarantees outstanding clearance and unique profile variety. The bending sequence can be overwritten or manually entered as an option. The correct bending sequence is immediately determined based on the automatic bending sequence calculation.

This EB Series is technically unique compared to other long folders on the market. Most notably is the geometry of the clamping beam. Specifically, the Variobend has a work envelope of 280 degrees, this is notably more than other benders on the market and allows the operator to achieve many profiles otherwise impossible. Further enhancing the Variobend is the torsion bar clamping system that ensures accurate level closing of the clamping beam even under the load of hemming operations. This feature includes an Variobend long length folding machines opening height that is infinitely variable via the touch screen control and allows hemming offer a unique flexibility and profile possible including maintaining even a gap if required. variety. Variobend offers one of the fastest bending, clamping and slitting speeds on the market.
