RAS GigaBend

Never before in metal folding have two dynamic features been brought together: power and speed. With the GIGAbend folding system, RAS not only reaches the heavier material market, but addresses stainless steel applications up to 4mm as well.

The maximum capacity of this RAS metal folding line is 6mm mild steel or 4mm stainless on 3200mm working length. These characteristics alone would be enough to create interest in this powerful package, but RAS designers are offering many more advantages with their multi-functional innovation. This is the first time that a folding system combines the characteristics of high clamping pressures and rapid speed. The additional clamping pressure holds the blanks safely and securely during bending. The 120 tons of clamping pressure insures that the GIGAbend delivers more than adequate power to close hems. In addition there are no compromises in terms of speed. With 60mm/s the upper clamping beam closes and opens quickly and dynamically. The folding specialists from RAS have overcome the differences between mass and dynamics by using an all new upper beam drive system.

An innovative hybrid drive system moves the upper beam quickly and effectively under servo-control to close to the correct clamping position. The system has two Power Boosters to create enormous clamping pressure. The three-axis drive system moves the upper beam accurately to any programmed clamping position, so open and closed hems are produced perfectly. The distance-based upper beam clamping also offers perfect parallel material clamping and allows a tool setup with multiple stations along the upper beam. With an upper beam open height of 500mm, the machine has a tremendous amount of flexibility to do deep boxes when the need arises.
