Smart four-roll plate bending system
HAEUSLER AG , a manufacturer of platebending machines , has introduced its VRM- NEO . This four-roll plate bending machine integrates the latest technologies and innovations for a wide range of applications .
“ Whether wind towers in onshore and offshore operation , shipbuilding and mechanical engineering or vessel production , the VRM NEO masters the challenges of these industries like no other four-roll plate bending machine . With its numerous advantages and innovations , it gives manufacturers a clear competitive advantage in their production ,” it explained .
“ The heart of the machine , the smart BENDtronic ® software , is a user-friendly and intuitive control system that optimises both the movements of the machine and the bending result itself . Using this control technology , even less experienced operators can always achieve top results with minimal waste , which significantly reduces the amount of training required for new operators . Regardless of the requirements , the VRM NEO achieves consistently high quality with different shapes , materials or operators ,” it continued .
With its compact linear guide , in combination with a flexible exchangeable roller , the VRM NEO can also bend small
diameters . The HAEUSLER design of the linear guide is aimed at stability and durability of the machine , which significantly reduces wear on the machine components .
“ In combination with smart hydraulics and optimised oil management , for fast and smooth movement of multiple axes with minimal oil consumption , precision results are possible . These technologies contribute significantly to outstanding product quality , as they ensure a high level of positional accuracy during the entire bending process ,” added the manufacturer .
The HAEUSLER machine also features electric rotation , which reaches a standard speed of 8m / minute and enables higher speeds as an option . The machine ’ s low noise level helps to reduce emissions and makes the VRM NEO one of the quietest machines in the industry .
“ Our system , in combination with BENDtronic ®, enables precise execution and accuracy in production . Reproducibility is easy to handle and the production results are always the same ,” concluded HAEUSLER .
