Precision and flexibility

TruBend Series 8000, ACB Wireless angle measuring system
ACB Wireless angle measuring system

Sensor disks integrated in the upper tool measure and correct every angle. The user-friendly ACB (Automatically Controlled Bending) Wireless automatically detects the position of the sensors, and the tool and control communicate wirelessly.

Heavy-duty TruBend Series 8000
ACB laser angle measuring system

The ACB Laser is an optical system for angle measurement. Without contact, the laser projects a line onto the sheet, and a camera detects the angle. For this, two measuring units are automatically moved to the right position.

TruBend Series 8000 backgauges
Backgauges

Up to 6 CNC-controlled backgauge axes position your workpieces precisely and securely. Optionally, these are also available in a particularly robust heavy-duty version.

Crowning of the TruBend Series 8000
Crowning

The automatic crowning works precisely down to the last detail. At a distance of 250 millimeters, you can adjust the crowning curve exactly to your bending task if desired. The crowning has a load capacity of up to 6,000 kN/m.

TruBend Series 8000 with lower tool displacement
Lower tool displacement

One tool, two different bending processes: the lower tool displacement makes it possible. In concrete terms, this means: You increase your part variety and save setup time and investment costs. The lower tool displacement enables special applications, such as folding.

Energy efficiency

On-Demand Drive

The new TruBend Series 8000 operates sustainably with the optional On-Demand Drive. The revolution speed of the motor is automatically adjusted to the press beam movement. This way you save up to 26 percent on energy and can perform bending work quietly and comfortably.

Material handling

Tool Indicator with status display

Set up in no time: The LED bar in the upper tool clamp shows exactly where the tool stations should be set up. It also shows the current machine status and displays which tool station the next bend is to be carried out on. The illuminated signs save unnecessary trips to the control panel.

Bending line laser

The bending line lasers enable you to correctly align the parts to be bent. For this purpose, the system projects a laser line onto the sheet metal, which serves as a visual guide for the operator during bending. The added value: Less rejects, more productivity. The bending line laser also enables so-called bending on a scribed line, i.e. bending without the support of the backgauge system, thus resulting in more work area.

ToolShuttle
Tool magazine

ToolShuttle, the practical tool magazine, stands directly next to your TruBend Series 8000 machine. During setup, tools are simply slid in and out of the machine, something that is particularly useful for heavy tools, saving time. The ToolShuttle has space for nearly 200 feet of tools and ensures everything is organized.

Standard tools

You can choose between more than 150 upper and lower tool types for your personal range. You can order tools individually or as a set.

ZN tools

During the processing of galvanized sheets, even after just a few bends, there may be zinc deposits on the die, resulting in cold welding. This causes imprints on the component and imprecision. This can be avoided with the TRUMPF LASERdur ZN bending tools. These combine a high level of surface hardness with excellent sliding properties, are corrosion resistant, and do not need to be cleaned.

Special tool

For specific requirements, TRUMPF will develop your own personal tool solutions. To guarantee the quality of your parts, we test the tools in advance with your specific material and create initial sample parts.

Automation solution with Starmatik

With the robot on a movable transverse rail, the TruBend 8000 can bend sheets up to eight meters in length with a maximum weight of 220 kilograms fully automated. The configuration is tailored to your needs. If required, you can add a storage connection, centering station, gripper and tool changing along with a regripping station and other sheet processing systems, such as joining or thermoforming. The complete solution can be programmed offline.
