Cutting busbar fabrication machine HBC-PC120

bendingpunchingmobile

Overview
The HBC-PC120 is a compact, workshop-grade busbar machine that performs cutting, punching and bending operations on copper and aluminium busbars. Designed for small workshops and mobile job sites, the unit uses a single hydraulic power pack and a set of quick‑change heads to carry out each operation sequentially. The machine is suitable for busbars up to 120 × 12 mm and is single‑phase 220 V compatible.

Main capabilities

• Cutting, punching and bending of copper and aluminium busbars (sequential operations with head change).
• Cable functions available via dedicated heads: crimping and cable cutting (optional).
• Punching with standard circular dies M6–M18; rectangular and oval dies available as options.
• Five quick‑change heads for rapid switching between operations (cutting, punching, bending, cable crimping, cable cutting).
• Designed for repeatable, accurate results with controlled bend angles via encoder and electronic bender controller.

Notable features and controls

• PLC control (Siemens components referenced) and HMI for bender management.
• High‑accuracy encoder for consistent angle control.
• Laser centre finder for precise punching position.
• Hydraulic station with combined high/low pressure pump and quality valve components.
• Fast tool change design; hand‑wheel for busbar axis up/down; foot pedal for hydraulic arm advance/return and automatic cycles.

• Sensors: Autonics listed in component table; AC contactor: Schneider listed.
• Industry 4.0 ready: optional connectivity/feedback features noted.

Operation & mechanical

• Single hydraulic power pack — only one station active at a time (tool head change required to switch functions).
• Hand‑wheel for vertical adjustment of busbar axis to seat heads; fast head change reduces downtime.
• Foot pedal controls hydraulic arm movement and automatic cycle start.
• Stroke data (summary): cutter/puncher/bender strokes and typical speeds referenced in spec tables (e.g. cutter strike stroke 88 mm; puncher strike stroke 38 mm; bender strike stroke 80 mm; typical stroke speeds ~0.39 m/min).
• Mounting type: wheels for portability (machine weight ~600 kg).

Operations, heads and tooling

• Cutting head — for copper and aluminium busbars up to 120 × 12 mm; dedicated cutting molds.
• Punching head — circular dies M6–M18 standard; oval and rectangular dies optional; laser centre finder for precise positioning.
• Bending head — electronic controller with encoder for repeatable angles.
• Cable crimping head — crimping capacity referenced as both 300 mm² and 240 mm² in different documents (final capacity to be confirmed).
• Cable cutting head — cutting up to 240 mm².

Applications & recommended use

• Small electrical workshops, panel builders and service teams requiring a compact 3‑in‑1 busbar workstation.
• Suitable for mobile job sites and manufacturers with limited floor space.
• Ideal where sequential operations (cut/punch/bend) are acceptable and fast head change is used to switch tasks.
