Tube Bending machine Orbibend 112

The mandrelless tube bender you must have is even stronger

  • ORBIBEND with its mobile orbital cut surpasses the normal mandrelless machines and marks a new step in the evolution of bending machines. (Patent by Simat)

A smart orbital cut

  • A MOBILE ORBITAL CUT able to cut the tube in unique ways(Patented by Simat):
  • Cut at the end of the bend: cut of the tube at the end of the curve without the need to trim the tube later with short ends
  • Pre-cut while bending: the pre-cut is done in masked time during the bending phase and this allows to save cycle time

Description

Fast and always the same

  • Towing by means of a clamp supported by ball screw:

the tube is always securely held granting maximum accuracy between the bending planes. The clamp avoids deformations and slippings of the tube due to the feeding of the tube by means of rollers. No more marks on the surface of the tubes due to encoders

  • Motors with absolute encoders:

There is no need for zeroing with zero sensors or limit switches. The machine is always ready from the moment it is switched on

  • Zero backlash gearboxes for robotics :

Maximum accuracy and repeatability in positioning

Bend as you want

  • Tube bending with compression bending
  • Multi-radius tube bending in process
  • Right and Left tube bending in process

Quickly change production

Change of tools in few minutes thanks to quick change systems and solutions designed to make operations fast and easy, such for example the quick ghange system of the straightening rollers

You can also end-form

  • ORBIBEND can be combined with a end-forming machine of MACH series, so in addition to bending and cutting, you can also end-form, taper, ram form, mill, and roll the ends of the pipes
  • It is also possible to connect the machines with a robot to end-form both the endings of the tubes

 The factory of tomorrow

A tube bending machine ready for the Industry 4.0 to simplify the monitoring of your factory and always have control over the activities

Respect the environment

  • Latest generation motors with the reinstatement of the braking current into the network in order to limit consumption
  • Saving raw material you avoid wastes and eliminating the cleaning of the tubes you reduce the environmental impact.

Good first take!

Thanks to the GBS3D Simulator you can check the feasibility of the product before start the production. A 3D graphic interface shows the virtual generation of the piece, calculates the possible collisions and reports them. In this way you save material and the pieces are already suitable from the first one.

Product features:

  • Full electric machine, manual settings are not needed when you change production
  • Maximum workable diameter: 12 mm
  • Orbital cut patented by SIMAT: cut at the end of the curve and cutting while bending
  • Saw blade cut placed after the bend (optional)
  • Compression bending (bending without mandrel)
  • Multi- radii in process
  • Towing by means of a clamp supported by a ball screw for maximum accuracy and speed
  • Not motorized vertical and horizontal straightening rollers
  • Quick change of tools
  • Possibility to integrate the machine with robots and other SIMAT's machines
  • SimUI HMI, quick and intuitive
  • GBS3D graphic simulator
  • Sectors: HVSC, Automotive, Aerospace, furniture
