So you’re in the market for a new press brake. With so many makes and models available how do you choose the right machine and how can you be sure you’re getting the very latest technology with the highest possible levels of productivity and performance? Advanced technologies accessible today deliver safe, high speed and efficient machine control, greater functionality and usability, highly advanced optical protection and exceptional performance. In addition to these technologies, the latest advancements in embedded optical imaging aid productivity through more accurate and consistent part production, managing faster bend speeds, real-time angle measurement, high speed angle control and instant part sampling. Unfortunately some press brake manufacturers make the mistake of treating productivity aids, user functionality, operator protection and safety as an afterthought. Simply adding on or offering an array of third party devices and components may provide basic functions but without the latest technology embedded as a complete solution these add ons can dramatically reduce machine productivity, performance, functionality and usability. In the end this costs you money. What if you could own a machine that provides you with the very latest in functionality, safety and operator protection while at the same time enhancing productivity and performance to levels never before possible? In this guide we showcase the industry’s leading press brake manufacturers who have embedded the very latest technologies into their machine designs to provide users efficient and streamlined operation, enhanced functionality and outstanding levels of productivity and performance.

Technology
RapidBend Turbo charge your press brake. Press brake optical protection doesn’t have to slow you down. Machines with embedded RapidBend technology utilise high speed progressive muting that enables the tools to close safely at high speed until the punch is only millimetres above the material. This reduces the slow speed travel distance on every bend to boost machine performance and significantly enhance your productivity. RapidBend enables the press brake to close safely at high speed until the punch is just 6mm above the material.
RapidBend Plus Not fast enough? RapidBend Plus reduces the speed change point even further from 6mm down to just 2mm to significantly enhance machine productivity, especially in high level production environments.
RapidBend Ultimate Why go slow when you can always go fast? RapidBend Ultimate eliminates slow speed altogether by enabling the tools to close at high speed right down to the pinch point for the ultimate in high speed performance. Press Brakes with RapidBend technology consistently outperform any other machines on the market. Only press brakes with embedded RapidBend technology can guarantee this high level of performance so look for RapidBend, RapidBend Plus or RapidBend Ultimate when purchasing your next machine.

SmartLink Work smarter not harder. SmartLink seamlessly integrates machine safety, optical protection and optical imaging functions with the CNC system to enhance the operation, functionality, performance and efficiency of the press brake. Press brakes with SmartLink offer a wide array of functions and not only operate without restriction or interference from the optical protection system but with enhanced efficiency and productivity.
Functionality & productivity. SmartLink enables optical protection modes to be selected and customised in the CNC bend program. A different mode or combination of modes can be selected for each bend step allowing the operator to streamline set-up to suit the profile of the work piece. SmartLink automatically switches modes on each step of the bend program with automatic blanking of individual sensors to eliminate unnecessary stops and pedal presses for reduced cycle time and the fastest possible part production. Press brakes with SmartLink technology produce parts more efficiently and faster than ever before.
FlexSpeed Who said safer is slower? FlexSpeed safety control with high speed processing technology provides the platform for more efficient machine operation and superior performance. Traditional press brake designs employ a combination of hardware and software safety processing. This inefficient process slows down overall response and reaction times and when coupled with optical protection systems leads to a reduction in machine performance by forcing the machine to operate at reduced closing speed in order to improve stopping performance and increasing slow speed travel prior to bending. Machines with FlexSpeed technology operate with maximum efficiency and productivity with no restriction on operating speed or performance.

PRESS BRAKE BUYER’S GUIDE
AutoSense AutoSense automatic monitoring technology tracks machine operation and performance in real time. AutoSense automatically monitors control commands, motion, direction, speed and stopping performance to maintain a high level of machine and operator protection. Press brakes with AutoSense guarantee compliance with international safety standards that mandate automatic monitoring of machine overrun and safe speed.
AutoSense Plus AutoSense Plus provides additional monitoring to detect and diagnose specific machine electrical and hydraulic faults with visual alerts displayed on the CNC. Machine problems are quickly and easily identified to help get your machine back into production with minimal downtime.
AutoSense Ultimate AutoSense Ultimate adds advanced Dynamic Valve Monitoring technology to automatically monitor hydraulic valves, associated control commands and machine actions independent of traditional valve sensors. Press Brakes with embedded AutoSense technology give you peace of mind so you can focus on getting the job done.
BendShield Protecting your productivity, not just your operators. BendShield technology provides advanced optical protection by enveloping the punch tip with a protective field that has no gaps while maintaining high speed operation. With an object detection resolution of 2mm, BendShield detects even the smallest obstruction from any angle. Press brakes with BendShield technology are not only the safest but also the most productive with guaranteed high speed performance.

TRUMPF opens smart factory in Chicago The leading machine tool manufacturer and Industry 4.0 pioneer TRUMPF has opened a new technology center in Chicago. It is the first smart factory for Industry 4.0 solutions that was designed for digitally connected production processes throughout. Investments for the facility, which covers more than 50,000 square feet, totaled 13 million euros in construction investment and 13 million euros in equipment investment. This smart factory will focus on consulting and training its customers as they introduce digitally connected production solutions. To this end, the company designed a factory that intelligently connects the entire sheet metal process chain – from the initial order for a sheet metal component to its design, manufacture and delivery.
Chicago is at the center of the North American market for sheet metal processing. Some 40 percent of the entire sheet metal processing industry is based in directly neighboring states. “For us, America is one of the most important markets there is. And in Chicago, we can present our vision for connected production to our customers in the Midwest practically at their doorstep – and work with them to drive forward connected production in the Industry 4.0 era,” said Nicola Leibinger-Kammüller, Chief Executive Officer of the TRUMPF Group, at the opening of the smart factory before 250 invited guests.
TRUMPF increased its sales in the American market by 14 percent in the past fiscal year – making the U.S. the company’s second-largest market after Germany.

The TRUMPF smart factory boasts custom-designed architecture: The control room and its large screens provide visitors with real-time process performance data for the current production process. A production hall 55 meters in length houses a connected sheet metal manufacturing line, the centerpiece of which is a high storage bay that supplies materials to the machine tools connected to it.
Top Image: TRUMPF Smart Factory Chicago was consciously chosen as the location for the Smart Factory of TRUMPF. The directly adjacent states contain around 40 percent of the country’s entire sheet metal working industry.

A skywalk spans the production hall, offering a bird’s-eye view of the factory and enabling those who stand on it to comprehend the production systems as well as their material and information flows as a whole. It is part of the self-supporting steel ceiling structure that was manufactured by one of TRUMPF’s customers in Atlanta. The showroom was designed by Berlin-based architecture firm Barkow Leibinger.
TRUMPF increased its sales in the American market by 14 percent in the past fiscal year, to 421 million euros – making the U.S. the company’s second-largest market after Germany. The company plans to continue expanding in this market over the long term. Opening the smart factory in Chicago was a key milestone in this endeavor. In this regard, Leibinger-Kammüller warned against protectionist tendencies: “Our industry needs free markets like people need air to breathe. Free and fair trade as well as the exchange of specialists and talented individuals are the only way to improve the standard of living for all people – whether in the U.S., in Germany or elsewhere in the world.”
“In Chicago, we can present our vision for connected production to our customers and work with them to drive forward connected production in the Industry 4.0 era,”
