D-Cell

D-Cell provides automated bending functionality at an affordable price, featuring a PPED press brake and Kuka industrial robot. The cell keeps your cost per part as low as possible.

A PPED 50/20 hydraulic press brake features 55 US tons with 6-foot working length. Accurate and consistent bending results are ensured by the rigid, welded one-piece frame, high-quality hydraulic components, and high-precision linear encoders.

It takes the CADMAN® software just 10 minutes to automatically generate a bending and robot program and only another 10 minutes for set-up and production of the first part. Operators of all skill levels can work with the cell.

A universal gripper designed by LVD effortlessly handles different part sizes, bends three flanges without regripping and easily moves between the tool stations.

D-Cell offers the flexibility to also work in manual mode as the fingers of the four-axis backgauge are adapted for both rob tic and manual bending.
 

A full suite of software modules create a fully integrated process flow, including CADMAN-B bend programming software, CADMAN-SIM robot software, CADMAN-SDI drawing importer, CADMAN-JOB real-time data collection, job tracking and ERP connection, as well as a Touch-i4 tablet for KPI performance indication and sorting and validating parts.
