Schwarze-Robitec cuts out wasted time in bending sequences

Schwarze-Robitec has broken down the original sequence of the bending process and arranged the individual steps synchronously. It prepares the next working step during execution of the current process. For example, while the tube is being fed to the tool, the clamping functions close almost fully. This means that the tool is immediately ready for the next bending step when the tube reaches its target position. The software finds the optimal parameters for the respective bending order thus reducing cycle times considerably. Menu navigation and structure are also designed to facilitate workflow. The integrated diagnostic and maintenance tool guides the operator through all setting and optimising steps, and checks all data reliably for validity. If the machine operator forgets to define a parameter, the tool will remind him.
