Electropneumatics has constantly been improving its tube bender range with features and technologies to make the machines more productive and energy-efficient. Hydraulic systems generally consume large amounts of energy. Their low efficiency results in significant energy wastage. However, today, with the introduction of servo hydraulic pumps driven by AC servo motors, energy savings in tube benders are possible. The main drive CNC axes (push, turn, bend, vertical and lateral) are direct AC servo motor controlled while the auxiliary functions like clamp, pressure die, chuck, mandrel, etc. are servo hydraulic pump driven.
Benefits: • Energy savings from 30 to 60%
• Smaller hydraulic system, less maintenance
• Optimised programmable cycle as per need provides operational flexibility
• Much less heat generation, hence oil volume and heat exchangers drastically reduced
• Smoother and quieter actuator operation • Programmable position-speed for each axis with parallel axes motions for higher productivity and superlative part quality
