Get to Know the TruBend 5130 Automatic Bending Machine That Delivers Exceptional Productivity

TRUMPF is one of the largest machine tool providers in the world. For bending and shaping sheet metal, we use the TRUMPF TruBend 5130. TruBend is one of the most popular press brakes because it delivers outstanding productivity at every stage, from programming to tool setup to bending. TRUMPF has developed automated bending solutions that help companies stay competitive in today's manufacturing industry.

Most bending parts are manufactured using air bending, bottom bending or folding and hemming. All of these methods and processes work in the same way, the punch presses the workpiece into the lower chisel of the die. That is why the bending machine that performs this method and process is called a press brake. Then what are the uses of this TruBend 5130? Here are the uses of TruBend, including:

1. Air Bending
   Air bending is when the blow presses the workpiece into the mold without pressing it against the wall. As the punch moves down, the side of the workpiece bends up, which creates an angle.

2. Bottom Bending
   Down bending is when the punch presses the workpiece into the die completely so that there is no gap between the die, workpiece and punch. This is called a form lock. Hit and die must match each other exactly.

3. Angle Assistance
   TRUMPF's solution is called ACB, which stands for Automatically Controlled Bending. Using the angle measurement system from the ACB family means even the first part in the circuit is perfect. The sensor determines the actual angle along with the rear spring and guides the ram to reach the desired angle. TRUMPF offers two systems that complement each other perfectly. Depending on the application, the ideal system is used.

4. User safety protection
   The TRUMPF BendGuard integrates easily into the bending process, combining operator safety and productivity. This safety mechanism uses laser technology to detect intrusive obstacles, such as human hands. Once the obstruction is removed, the bending process can continue at a fast pace once the operator reactivates the foot pedal.
