VARIOBEND UP and DOWN Folder – model series DB 2.0

The DB models combine perfect interaction of precision and high speed. Using the VARIOBEND UP and DOWN Folder, you are unrivalled productive from programming to bending.

VARIOBEND UP and DOWN Folder of type DB is a high-performance long-length bending machine fitted with two folding beams. VARIOBEND innovations, such as the conical bending and slotting of profiles, the large opening height of the clamping beam, the segmented bending and clamping beams made of high-strength steel as well as the patented bending system with its inclined bending beams belong to the basic equipment of DB. The worldwide unique turning device is available for this model series as well.

The models are available in lengths of 4 to 12 metres and have a bending capacity of 1.5 mm to 2.0 mm of steel sheet.

Apart from its high bending performance, the model provides numerous technical possibilities that live up to the trend in every respect to produce ever more precise bent parts. Apart from the precision of the edge parts, the focus of every purchase decision is on the production time as well. During a change of the bending direction, for example, the required forward or backward movement of the clamping beam, the positioning of the back gauge and the closing of the clamping beam are carried out at the same time and in a correspondingly tight time slot. In combination with the servo technology used, these unique dynamics cause impressive and especially highly efficient movement patterns.

The electric clamp beam crowning is an outstanding feature. The fully automatic crowning system completely eliminates overbending at the outer sides of the edge parts. This is achieved by positioning highly-precise servo drives independently from each other to each machine stand depending on type and thickness of material. If the user requests additional individual corrections, they can be carried out easily and very user-friendly by means of the VARIOBEND touch control. The clamp beam crowning and the servo technology is available for model series DB as an optional feature.

Software

VARIOBEND 4.0 software solutions

Markets are subject to permanent change. In sheet metal forming, this also leads to an ever higher complexity of products and processes. Effective, highly flexible, but also user-friendly solutions are needed. The software solutions of ASCO will help you to get a grip on precisely these challenges, reducing expenses in the process as well. Networked production reduces the risks of error and increases profitability.

VARIOBEND Pro 4.0

Increase your output

Many orders and small lots mean that your machine operators or programmers must program faster – error-free! With VARIOBEND Pro 4.0, you have sufficient time for efficient work preparation. VARIOBEND Pro 4.0 software displays all process steps for an efficient planning process. With VARIOBEND Pro 4.0, you do not program your long-length bending machine or your twin bending machine at the machine but in one or several workplaces parallel to production. This process reduces auxiliary process times distinctly and thus increases the machine availability dramatically. No time-consuming training of the machine. Thus, your VARIOBEND works productively without brakes.

Save time and increase your overall productivity.

Once the order has been set up, the data are transferred to the machine paperless. In addition, the production order can be exported as a PDF and can be provided with a unique QR code. This PDF is handed over to the machine operator. The machine operator scans the profile to be produced. By means of the QR scanner, the profile prepared in the office previously is called up with all characteristics and can then be produced immediately. Avoid unproductive times – use the intelligent and highly efficient.
