The EGB 1303 ARs is a fully-integrated robotic bending system with a 6-axis bending robot with a traveling axis, automatic gripper changer, and automatic tool changer (ATC) with patented AMADA tooling. Each stage of the bending process, including tool loading, gripper exchange, and robotic bending are all performed at fast speeds to maintain high levels of unmanned machine productivity. The ATC is equipped with four tool manipulators that quickly and precisely position punches and dies along the length of the press brake to eliminate costly delays associated with manual tool changes.
To maximize bending flexibility, the EGB ARs is equipped with a 6-axis robot with a traveling axis. Mounted on a rail in front of the EGB ATC press brake, this fully-integrated robot can traverse along the length of the press brake to facilitate multi-stage bending. The enhanced motion capabilities allow this robot to easily perform acute and obtuse bends. Also, the newly developed robot controller improves cycle times and has a reduced footprint to make the machine more compact.
In adherence to the primary section of AMADA's Basic Policy on Sustainability, we are committed to treating people and the global environment with respect. We achieve this goal by reducing CO2 emissions, promoting the reduction and reuse of waste, and protecting the global environment, including biodiversity in all processes. We also provide environmentally-friendly products and services through our business activities. https://www.amada.co.jp/en/sustainability
An intelligent AMNC 4ie control allows voice commands to request, change, and verify bend information while the operator is on the moveall as an automatic foot pedal slides to the next bending position to ensure continuous operation.
By integrating a bending robot with the precision of AMADA's EGB ATCe press brake and patented Automatic Tool Changer (ATC), fabricators can automatically bend a variety of parts with maximum accuracy.
AMADA's ATC ensures that tools are loaded quickly and precisely. Four tool manipulators quickly load tooling from 18 punch stockers and 25 die stockers. Each stocker can hold 800mm of tooling. The ATC was engineered to eliminate costly delays associated with manual tool changes.
The Automatic Gripper Changer will exchange the gripper according to the workpiece to ensure efficient and stable processing. This machine is equipped with various types of grippers to accommodate a wide variety of parts shapes and sizes.
A two backgauge system with a side gauge ensures stable positioning of asymmetrical workpieces and simplifies positioning. The side gauge corrects lateral misalignments and stabilizes lateral positioning.
To further boost productivity, Bi-S II automatically measeure and corrects angles up to 85% faster than Bi-S Technology.
