The numerically controlled universal bending machine, electronically programmable, with one bending unit is capable of bending heating elements on one plane or on several planes in an automatic cycle in a great variety of shapes, sizes and bending angles.
With the CSM universal bending machine, simply entering the standard bending data in the 3D-graphic programming software, the machine automatically generates the part program after searching for prior bending experience in its database. Recalling preset programs, the machine leads with dimensional tolerances right from the first element with a minimum setup time and a repeatable accuracy.
The concrete advantages that make the difference

By entering standard curvature data, the machine automatically and reliably generates the execution program, drawing on its database of previous bending experience. This ensures a correct part on the first attempt, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.

CSM’s three-dimensional graphic programming software allows the bending program to be created and run instantly, simply by entering the heating element’s geometric data. Parts can also be simulated before production, ensuring the best result with no risk of collisions.

Main movements are controlled by electric axes, with all position and power parameters saved together with the part program. Fewer mechanical adjustments mean fast set-up times and a precise, consistent position at every production changeover — no specialist required to operate the machine.

An optimized design reduces maintenance needs and wear on the bending machine’s components, making the machine more reliable and dependable.

The machine offers simple, fast programming, with the ability to store up to 10,000 programs.

The machine bends heating elements of varying lengths, with the ability to program tolerances for each branch of the element.

NOTE
The universal NC bending machine includes an electronic device for measuring the length of resistors and a dedicated safety PLC.
The rotating clamp offers the possibility to produce 3D (multiplane) elements in automatic mode (for elements with a diameter up to 12 mm The clamp is supplied with a bending roll for 3D elements with OD=18 mm and a clamp for a diameter (to be defined).
It offers the possibility to delimit a programmable work area and launch the bending cycle without two-hand control.
A wide range of extensions from 1000 to 6000 mm to be added to the base model.
Various tooling sets are available depending on the desired shape and on the diameter and bend radius of the heating element (See technical data sheet for details).
Heavy-Duty Head – extends max. element diameter up to 16 mm.
Small Radii Head – enables tight-radius bending using bending rolls of diameter 12–17 mm; suitable for elements with diameter up to 8,5 mm.
Connect the bending machine directly to your company server, enabling programs and data tables to be read and written in real time-
