TRUMPF’s TruBend Series 7000 precision press brakes are compactmachines for the production of small bent parts up to 40 inches. Typical applications include sheet metal parts used in the production of vending machines and electrical equipment as well as in the telecommunications and aerospace industries. The TruBend 7036 is part of TRUMPF’s TruBend Series 7000 press brakes. The TruBend 7036 is an ergonomic press brakewith its adjustable foot rest and table, plus tilt control. A feature of the TruBend Series 7000 includes the ability to increase its bending speed by making adjustments to the machine parts relevant to the bending process: the back gauge and the beam. The back gauge ismadewith lightweight carbon fiber, and the surfaces on which the bent part contacts the fingers of the back gauge are made of hardened steel. “In addition, the torque motor, which drives the beam, can deliver power even at low speeds. It can produce rapid axis movements and is low maintenance, since it has no gears and, therefore, needs no gear oil. The energyefficient electric motor also reduces energy costs,” said the spokesperson. The operator can control the machine while sitting down. Gas spring supported pedals allow the height and angle of the foot rests to be adjusted. The arm support is also adjustable in height, so that every operator can set up his or her workplace individually. In addition, the monitor for the TASC 6000 control system of the TruBend Series 7000 can be adjusted electronically and set to the appropriate angle. Optional TRUMPF LED lighting illuminates the area in front of and behind the beam to provide correct lighting conditions precisely at the bend, without heat radiation. An optional laser diode also projects the bend line onto the surface of the sheetmetal, simplifying the accuracy of guiding the workpiece into the back gauge.
