Intelligent flexible bending centers do not need to hold the workpiece manually, and the bending process is fully automated, which greatly reduces the potential safety hazards brought about by workers’ misoperation.
Ease of use：
Intelligent flexible bending center using graphical visual programming, workers only need to enter bending data according to the workpiece, the system automatically generates bending instructions, no need to use the code programming, ordinary workers can be mastered in 2 hours. Traditional CNC bending centers require workers to master complex programming skills, and in the bending process to memorize the bending sequence of each fold, difficult, high error rate.
Coherence：
Intelligent flexible bending center can realize automatic positioning of the plate, the system positioning accuracy is high, the consistency of the molded product is higher, more suitable for batch production. Traditional CNC bending centers do not have high precision positioning, which can result in dimensional errors due to multiple positioning.
