LVD is excited to introduce its new robotic bending cell, a highly flexible bending automation solution designed for a wide range of parts. This innovative system, along with the electric-drive Dyna-Press Pro press brake and the new CADMAN®-Flow software, will be showcased at TechniShow in Hall 7, Stand D056. LVD’s press brakes and bending cells, powered by their fully re-engineered benchmark bending software, enhance ease, precision, and productivity for job shops and OEMs alike.
Flexible Scope
The new Easy-Cell 80/25 combines an Easy-Form 80-ton press brake with a Kuka industrial robot, capable of handling parts ranging from 100 x 100 mm to 1600 x 1200 mm and weighing up to 25 kg. The press brake features a 2500 mm bend length, a five-axis backgauge, and a 2500 mm crowning table, offering versatility for a broad range of bending applications. Easy-Cell provides high flexibility to produce a wide variety of parts with the precision of an integrated adaptive bending system, ensuring bend angle accuracy from the first part. The LVD CADMAN software enables fast and simple offline programming of both the press brake and the robot.
Precise Part Production
At TechniShow, the Dyna-Press Pro will demonstrate LVD’s Easy-Form® Laser, an optional feature that offers adaptive bending with repeatable accuracy from the first bend. The Easy-Form Laser transmits real-time data to the CNC control, which processes the information and immediately adjusts the punch position to achieve the correct angle, automatically compensating for material variations such as sheet thickness, strain hardening, and grain direction. This ensures a seamless bending process without interrupting production or losing any production time.
Press brakes and punch presses are central to most fabrication workshops across Australia. They deliver precision and productivity, but they also introduce serious risks if not managed correctly. Clear and practical press brake safety tips are essential for maintaining a safe working environment without slowing production. When safety becomes part of daily operations rather than … Press Brake Safety Tips Every Aussie Workshop Needs
Short lead times, tight margins and labour shortages continue to challenge sheet metal workshops across Australia and New Zealand. Every inefficiency in production adds cost, especially when machines are not being used to their full capability. This is why the discussion around laser cutting vs punching remains so important. Rather than choosing one process over … Laser Cutting vs Punching: Choosing the Right Mix
Rising labour costs, a shrinking pool of skilled tradespeople, tighter tolerances, and faster customer expectations are reshaping metal fabrication across Australia and New Zealand. Many workshops have pushed manual processes as far as they can. Overtime and additional staff no longer deliver the gains they once did. Automation systems for fabrication now offer a practical … Automation Systems for Fabrication
