Autobrake 2000
The Roper Whitney Autobrake 2000 folding machine is
offered in a range of models from 4 feet to 13 feet , and capacities
through 1/4" steel , the Autobrake 2000 folding machine is designed
to meet the needs of job shops, metal roofing contractors, and architectural
sheet metal fabricators. These CNC metal folding systems incorporate
automatic gauging, clamping, and pivot bending for versatile, efficient
part production. Bending and gauge positioning accuracy alllow a wide
range of parts to be fabricated with repeat precision.
Computer Controlled Auto Brake- Flexible, powerful,
and easy to use makes the Orion control system a must have for any
sheet metal fabricator.This all new Windows®based controller was
specifically designed for the Autobrake 2000 folding machine and uses
a touch-based graphical user interface for quick editing and creation
of part programs. With minimal training, operators can quickly learn
to dynamically generate part drawings complete with up-to-date bend
angles and lines, material handling instruction, plus hemming and
radius macros. An internal modem allows our technicians to troubleshoot
your Orion Control using a phone line.
Dual Clamping System- Clamping pressure is easily programmed
at the control without manual adjustments allowing soft and painted
materials to be held without marrign. The Roper Whitney Autobrake
2000 folding machine is activated by footswitch through a unique spring
loaded system, and driven from both ends, clamping ressures approaching
40 tons are achieved.
Powerful Bending System - Folding of the part is accomplished
by a rotating beam driven from both ends by heavy duty low-friction
roller chains with an automatic tensioning device for low maintenance.
Accuracy of the bend is ensured by encoder feedback attached directly
to the rotating center of the bending beam.
Universal Tooling - Every Roper Whitney Autobrake comes
with continuous upper, lower, and bending tooling included, as well
as a complete set of box and pam (Kombi) tooling (1" through
24" widths).Specialty tooling, while seldom needed, is also available
to meet your needs for every Roper Autobrake 2000 folding machine.
Patented Kombi™ Beam - Found only on the Roper
Whitney Autobrake, this patented upper beam allows both straight full
length bending box work without changing tools.The box tooling is
mounted on the reverse side of the beam and rotated into position
in a fraction of the tool change over time required with other systems.
Angles, raduis bends, and hems all can be formed with the Autobrake
2000 folding machine without any additional tool setup during part
production.
CNC Backgauge -Multiple sets of steps are provided for
fast accurate positioning of the work material without pre-measuring
or scribing of the sheet. Low profile spring stops in the forward
position allow gauging between the clamping jaws for short flanges
without marking soft materials.
