OPEN INTERFACES

thalmann-steuerung-offene-schnittstellen

For a flexible exchange of data with existing production lines and ERP systems the controller is fitted with Open interfaces for widely existing software packages such as NuIT, Bendex and Sema and DXF data formats.

AUTOMATIC FOLDING SEQUENCE

thalmann-steuerung-automatische-biegefolge

Automatically different folding sequences are being calculated, proposed and displayed.

INTERCHANGEABLE TOOLS

thalmann-maschinen-tc-doppelbieger-wechselwerkzeug

Mounted on the bending beam, a selection of different interchangeable beam extensions can greatly extend the scope of bends produced on a THALMANN machine.

GRIPPER FINGERS

thalmann-maschinen-tc-doppelbieger-greifereinheiten

To increase the scope of product dimensions that can be folded on a THALMANN machine, a wide range of gripper designs can be selected.

Spring-loaded fingers are automatically activated to position the sheet metal in the right place when the smallest possible gripper measurement is exceeded.

VERTICAL FORCE DRIVE (VFD)

thalmann-maschinen-tc-doppelbieger-vfd-konstruktionsprinzip

Evenly distributed ultra-high pressing force is critical to clamp the sheet metal parts for challenging folding cycles such as open or closed hems. The unique design of the rigid C-frames combined with the vertically positioned clamping beam is the basis for this unique Technology not found in any other design of folders around the world. All the force is evenly distributed over the full length of the sheet being bent.

THALMANN’s Vertical Force Drive (VFD) ensures that all forces are vertically applied to the sheet metal that is being bent. This design principle of THALMANN machines guarantees that the forces applied for the bending process are efficiently used without significant losses.

Unlike other technologies in the market the vertical force is applied directly at the zone where the actual bend is being formed.

TORSION SHAFT TECHNOLOGY

thalmann-maschinen-tc-doppelbieger-steuerwellentechnologie

The kinetic Torsion shaft technology provides maximal precision and reproducibility of folded parts. This technology is unmatched and unique to all THALMANN folders.

The synchronized distribution of force to the machine is at the heart of all THALMANN machines and can be compared to the synchronised mechanical control used in aircrafts. No other folder in the market is capable to deliver folded parts with an accuracy delivered through this technology.

SAFETY CONCEPT

thalmann-maschinen-tc-doppelbieger-sicherheitskonzept

Laser guides around the machine guarantee a safe environment for operators to work in. The safety zone is placed as such that efficiencies and sufficient workspace during operation of the machine are maintained.

THALMANN’s safety concept is fully complient with the EU-guidelines for “Standard-Sicherheitsausrüstung” and “Sicherheit von Steuerungen”.

SIDE LOADING DEVICE

thalmann-maschinen-tc-doppelbieger-blecheinzug

The automated integrated side loading equipment mounted on a folder provides significant efficiency gains and operational cost reductions. The only operation required at a machine with automated side loading is to keep the feeder filled with sheet metal and turn or unload the folded sheet-metal parts. Reduction of labour time at the machine is significant. With the automated sideloading device multiple parts can be loaded and folded at the same time.

The loading table with a high load capacity is mobile, can be automatically adjusted in height and can be supplied in different lengths. Optionally, the sheets are automatically made available in single feed, from a stack or directly from an upstream de-coiler.

The additional benefits are multiple: the operation is faster, safer for operators and can be integrated on the operations with minimal need for extra floor space. The integrated sheet loading device improves accuracy and increase capacity at reduced costs.

In combination with the integrated flipping device THALMANN offers a fully automated solution for the folding operation. Operator activity is limited to loading a stack of sheets in a feeder and discharge bended parts from the machine.

MODULAR TOOL GEOMETRY

thalmann-maschinen-tc-doppelbieger-modulare-werkzeuggeometrie

A cropped bending beam allows more freedom and possibilities in the production of sheet metal profiles. The free space is extended through the folder cropped beam dimension. The additional space allows for bends with a 1:2 aspect ratio.

Architects, industrial designers and façade designers are continuously looking for new profile geometries. With the addition of a cropped bending beam on a THALMANN folder a wider range of dimensions of bended sheet metal parts can be produced. With this feature THALMANN customers are able to expand their product portfolio and business for folded sheet metal parts.

MULTI SECTION GRIPPERS

thalmann-maschinen-tc-doppelbieger-mehrzonen-greiferansteuerung

Efficiencies, process flexibilities can be significantly enhanced by folding several sheets at the same time within one folding cycle.

The THALMANN machines can be custom equipped with fully automated multi section grippers that allows to handle and process several parts at the same time by one operator. For example 2 x 3 meter sheets can be folded simultaneously by one operator on a 6.4 meter Thalmann TD folder.
