Hydraulic press brake AHK M 2160

NCprecision

Overview
The AHK M 2160 NC is a compact NC press brake designed as an economical alternative to full CNC press brakes. It is suited for production of recurring parts and profiles where fast setup and repeatability are required. The back gauge (X and R axes) and depth stops are positioned via touchscreen, and bending sequences can be stored in the NC control for semi‑automatic or automatic operation.

Highlights

• Stress‑relieved welded steel frame
• Direct bend angle entry on touchscreen
• NC control with touch HMI
• Motorized back gauge with X and R axes
• European‑style segmented upper die (4V)

Machine frame and upper die

• High‑precision, stress‑relieved welded steel frame with rigid bending beam and bilateral hydraulic cylinders
• Large overhang and narrow table provide clearance for complex bending sequences

Hydraulics

• Hydraulic unit with reservoir located in the upper frame to save space and increase structural rigidity
• Torsion shaft links depth stops of both cylinders for exact upper beam positioning

Front support arms

• Height‑adjustable, robust support arms to facilitate handling of workpieces
• Stop ridge on support surface aids alignment

Bending tools

• Promecam toolholders for broad tool compatibility
• Manual quick‑action clamping reduces tool change time
• 4‑V segmented die allows processing of a wide range of parts

Safety and productivity

• Safety concept based on current CE regulations
• Light curtains protect the work area

Control
The machine is operated via a clear touchscreen showing all functions. The operator can enter the desired bend angle directly. Based on sheet thickness and saved tool data, the NC control calculates the required depth stop position to speed setup and ensure repeatable accuracy. Three operating modes are available: manual, semi‑automatic and automatic. In manual mode axes are positioned via motorized motion with values shown on the display. In semi‑automatic mode the control moves axes to operator input values. In automatic mode stored bend sequences are executed automatically. Up to 500 data sets can be saved internally; external backup and program import/export are supported via USB or network connection on the control panel.

Back gauge

• NC‑controlled back gauge provides stable, repeatable positioning
• Linear guides and large preloaded ball screws are low‑maintenance and robust
• Motorized R‑axis simplifies precise stop height setup
• Lateral positioning of back gauge fingers on smooth dual linear guides
