Customized Solutions for Processing Wire

Our CNC coiling and bending machines are a precise and efficient solution for the production of two- and three-dimensionally bent parts from wire, tube and profiled materials. Thanks to highly dynamic drives, our bending machines enable an economical production of simple but also complicated parts. Due to a flexible amount of CNC axes and a large variety of options, the machines can be configured on a modular basis as required by different materials and geometries. This ensures maximum efficiency and productivity, lowers production costs and increases the quality of the products produced.

CNC-controlled dual- and multiple-head bending machines have been designed for the production of two-dimensionally and three-dimensionally bent parts and frames from round wire, tube and profiled materials. Dynamic bending head drives and precise straightening systems offer high production efficiency. These machines allow a precise and quick production of complicated, asymmetrical and symmetrical parts. The CNC control unit ensures an economical production of large batches. Due to their flexibility and adaptability, the machines are a customized solution for different production requirements. The machines' design allows to carry out various bending processes simultaneously which increases the production speed considerably. Thus the machines are particularly well suited for the production of complicated parts needed in different industries, like the automotive, furniture, electronic or mechanical engineering industry. Due to their flexibility and adaptability, the machines also are a customized solution for different production requirements.

The modular CNC transfer bending machine is equipped with several stations for bending, forming, flattening, thread rolling, and many more. The patented transfer system serves for transporting workpieces to the different stations that can be configured on a modular basis. These stations offer individual production solutions for round wire, tube and profiled materials.
