R42E

The R42E is a fully electric tube-bending machine with a fully automatic cycle with a double bending direction to process tubes in a single cycle, even tubes that would require re-machining operations. The main features are: High personalization and flexibility of the loading and unloading systems, which are programmable according to production needs. Lower maintenance due to the lubrification-free direct-drive bending head. Greater rigidity, precision, and repeatability due to fewer components. Simultaneous installation of multiple tools with different ratio and counterbond clamps. Extreme flexibility and absolute control of each movement ensuring high quality and precise bends, very short set-up time, and minimal scrap. The possibility of integrating devices onto the machine for additional operations (i.e., punching, knurling, drilling, marking). High rigidity of each mechanical element, particularly the frame, for maximum precision and repeatability. New Siemens SINUMERIK ONE control model for an unprecedented standard in processing speed with a PLC cycle time of up to 10 times faster than its predecessor. The capacity for bends with an Rm/Ø ratio of lower than 0.8. The UII (User ISO Interface) sofware for easy machine programming to create bends with variable radius. Touch screen control panel capable of remote monitoring and control.
