Sheet metal swivel folding machine AutoBrake®

CNC

The AutoBrake® is the component fabricator’s choice for unparalleled ease-of-use, speed and accuracy. Powered by an advanced CNC control system, the AutoBrake® sheet metal brake by Roper Whitney is capable of bending many types of materials and thicknesses with very little setup time and minimal tool changes. The Autobrake® provides accuracy and repeatability when forming 16 gauge or lighter materials. This sheet metal brake is a high speed solution to make multiple bends while maintaining a high quality level in the end product. Both backgauge options provide accurate part location through the use of servo drives and are expandable with optional backgauge extensions. The rigid design includes crowning adjustments to ensure accurate bending regardless of raw material stresses. Various options of tooling are provided to help customize to your specific needs, and can be provided in tool steel or hardened. The Synergy control offers high speed versatility to an end user. It offers multiple methods of programming from simple line-by-line to draw-to-auto program. Its network capabilities allow for multiple options, such as; Konnect, Konstruct, Mobile Konstruct, and overall shop management through linking multiple machines. The Autobrake® design is a plate and weldment steel construction, delivering superior performance and features in a simplified rigid design. End housings are a plate-type construction bringing drive components close together for improved stiffness and performance. Actuating mechanisms are secured in rigid mounts at the outside of the housings, allowing easy maintenance. Clamping and hemming capabilities come standard and are already included in the
