PRODUCT REVIEWS
Prima Power’ s PSBB line.
FMS innovations and new software
At EuroBLECH 2026( 20-23 October 2026 in Hanover, Germany), Prima Power will present two new flexible manufacturing systems showcasing its latest developments in integrated sheet metal production. These will include global premieres in automation, bending and software, reinforcing its strategy of‘ Evolve by Integration’. Visitors can meet Prima Power in Hall 12 on stand B146 at EuroBLECH 2026.
At the exhibition, the Group will present two flexible manufacturing systems combining multiple technologies, automation and digital solutions for dynamic sheetmetal production environments( where productivity, adaptability and operational continuity are key). The lines will feature several key innovations and first-time showcases, highlighting scalable solutions that evolve with market needs. Different automation architectures, from material flow to unloading and transfer, will demonstrate how systems can be configured for a wide range of strategies, from small batches to unattended high-volume production.
“ The first manufacturing line will focus on laser processing integrated with a new bending solution, as well as advanced automation and material flow systems, featuring three world premieres. Among them, we will preview a new concept in bending technology designed to make panel bending more accessible while preserving the performance, reliability and integration capabilities that define our approach to manufacturing. The launch builds on more than 40 years of panel bending expertise developed at our Bending Product Unit in Cologna Veneta( Italy). The manufacturing
line will also introduce new approaches to automation and material handling, together with advanced solutions for autonomous material transfer and logistics,” Prima Power told ISMR.
The second manufacturing line will demonstrate a highly automated production flow integrating punching, shearing, buffering and bending into a single, connected process. Designed to streamline operations from raw material to finished components, the system will highlight how integrated solutions can minimise manual handling, improve efficiency and ensure consistent output quality.
“ New features and enhancements further support extended autonomous operation, improving process stability and enabling longer periods of unattended production. Advanced material handling, intelligent buffering and optimised process coordination contribute to a more controlled and reliable production flow, helping manufacturers to maximise machine utilisation while maintaining flexibility across different production scenarios( from high-mix production to continuous, high-volume

output),” continued the Italian sheet metal specialist.
Prima Power also will present its All‐in‐One software platform, a unified environment designed to manage and control the entire production process through the integrated modules for all-day work steps Plan, Program, Run, Control and Trust. Particular focus will be given to the Trust module, with the introduction of a new AI-driven predictive maintenance service that analyses machine data to anticipate issues, enhancing service responsiveness with proactive alerts to technicians and reducing unplanned downtime through preventive intervention.
The Group’ s portfolio includes flexible manufacturing systems; automation & robotics; software; punching; shearing & combi; bending and laser processing. The Group employs about 1,700 people worldwide with 15,000 installations, six production plants and annual revenues of around 500 million euros. n
