Precision Edge is a high-speed, automatic, in-line single-stage benders for singlewide plates with a minimum of 276 mm (10.9”) or doublewide plates with a maximum width of 698.5 mm (27.5”).It is capable of producing up to 290 singlewide or doublewide plates per hour. The bender can be special ordered to accept plates with a maximum width of 965.2 mm (38”) and maximum length of 1193.8 mm (47").
Plates are fed lead or trail to the left or right via optional conveyor, then automatically registered by a plate edge contact system. Precision Edge’s plate edge contact system is accurate to +/-0.0254 mm (+/-0.001”). The edge contacts can be set to register the same side of the plate as the CtP engine. Plates are punched and then bent using Glunz & Jensen’s unique rotary bend leaf design. Air cylinders perform rotary leaves and bend head movement.
Precision Edge incorporates the AutoLube Punch System, which automatically lubes the punches to reduce galling and extend the life of the punches. The bender utilizes Glunz & Jensen’s unique rotary bend leaf movement to perform precise lead and trail plate bends. Bend mandrels are hardened and ground and plate platen contains a vacuum system.
