Electro-hydraulic bending machine AFE-2Dx

The AFE-2Dx line of equipment is designed around our standard AFM-2Dx line without all of the features that might not be needed from all users. It is a simplified version of our standard AFM-2Dx line and it does not have a tilting top plate. The AFM in the model number stands for “AccuForm Modular” which means that the machine can be configured in Modules. For common features please read our page Common attributes for the majority of our equipment. The basic version of the AFE-2Dx line has a feeder module and a bender module. Each module provides its own operation but all modules are controlled and synchronized from the same computer system. On the AFE-2Dx line, the computer system is mounted on the Feeder module. Technical Specs Standard (single stage) Bending Head The feeder module is feeding the wire, through a straightener, to the Bender module. The bender mechanism bends the wire, according to pre-programmed data and “shears” it with an integral hydraulic cutter. The turret option (-T) adds one servo axis to the Bender module, for automatic and programmable bending tool-change along with a second bending pin. This provides the flexibility to programmatically change the tool that the wire is getting bend on, making available 4-8 different bend radii. Two Bending pins are available with the turret option; usually one is a roller for generated radii and the other is a hard pin for “tight” bends. Turret Bender (Indexing Tool changer) Optionally, additional modules can be added to the configuration of the machine depending on the specific production requirements, for example in-line Chamfering Module (AL1) or in-line die module (AD1).
