Cutting busbar fabrication machine HBC series

punchingbending

Overview
A busbar processing machine is industrial equipment used in electrical switchgear manufacturing to cut, punch and bend copper busbars. When panel current exceeds 125 A, copper busbars are used instead of cables to carry high currents with minimum resistance. PAYAPRESS busbar processing machines are designed for precision, repeatability and high-volume production in switchgear workshops.

Main functions

• Cutting: precise length cutting of copper busbars.
• Punching: high-accuracy hole punching to meet electrical connection and standard requirements.
• Bending: forming required profiles and shapes for panel installation.

Model series and operation modes
PAYAPRESS HBC product family is presented as a set of model series adapted to different workshop needs:

• HBC-A series: 3-in-1 machines (bending, cutting, punching) equipped with 3 power packs. Allows up to three operators to work on the three stations simultaneously without interrupting each other. Example models: HBC-A120 (up to 120×12 mm), HBC-A160 (up to 160×15 mm).
• HBC-B series: similar structural design to the A series but equipped with a single power pack; the operator can work on one station at a time. A cost-effective option for workshops with tighter budgets.
• HBC-CP series: cutting & punching series equipped with two power packs, allowing two stations to operate simultaneously. Includes a Programmable Length Stopper (supports up to 20 programmable positions) for repeatable, high-precision positioning of cuts and holes.
• HBC-BE / HBC-BExxx: dedicated bending machines in the HBC lineup, supplied with a full set of bending molds for workshop requirements.

Key features

• 3-in-1 capability (cut, punch, bend) available in integrated models to reduce floor space and streamline production flow.
• Multiple power-pack configurations across series: multi-power-pack for simultaneous station operation (A series), single power-pack for sequential operation (B series), dual power-pack for two-station simultaneous operation (CP series).
• Programmable Length Stopper (CP series): up to 20 programmable positions for accurate, repeatable cuts and hole patterns.
• Bending capability: includes a wide range of molds (Z-shape, Twist, Edge-Bending, etc.) for complex panel geometries.
• Model capacity options: commonly offered capacities are up to 120×12 mm and up to 160×15 mm depending on the model selected.
• Designed for precision: essential where copper busbars are costly and must meet strict standards from energy authorities.

Applications
Used by switchgear and electrical-panel manufacturers to produce busbars for panels rated above 125 A, enabling accurate fabrication of busbars for distribution, switchgear enclosures and electrical assemblies.

Technical specifications

• Primary operations: cutting, punching, bending.
