Advantages at a glance

• Reduction of maintenance costs
• Maximization of the plate bending range
• Modern and functional design
• Avoidance of downtimes

 

Optional Autonomous Bending

With the help of the system’s intelligent information feedback, a fully automatic bending process is possible from the first sheet with little rework and no rejects.

High productivity with simple operation

THE EVO is packed with innovative and patented features that increase your production capacity and productivity while offering the lowest total cost of ownership. In addition to the high-quality components used in this machine, a special highlight is the latest version of the BENDtronic control system, which is installed as standard on all EVO machines. This patented control system is the only one that uses artificial intelligence to optimize your bending result from the very beginning. At the same time it is absolutely intuitive and easy to operate.

 

• Reduction of maintenance costs. The Haeusler Drive System HHDS reduces maintenance costs by up to 50% and allows for 60% increase in rotation speed compared to other bending machines.
• Maximizing the sheet bending range. With the newly developed and patent-pending VSA technology, a performance increase of up to 85% can be realized.
• Avoidance of downtime. The use of optionally available special sensors enables predictive maintenance of the machine. This can reduce unplanned downtime.
• Modern and functional design. Modern appearance, high protective function and at the same time optimal operability. These criteria were decisive in the development in the machine.
• Bending becomes child’s play. The latest generation of Haeusler’s patented BENDtronic 2.0 control with artificial intelligence enables the operator to achieve perfect bending results right from the start.

 

HHDS – HAEUSLER Hybrid Drive System HHDS®

THE EVO is packed with innovative and patented features that increase your production capacity and productivity while offering the lowest total cost of ownership. In addition to the high-quality components used in this machine, a special highlight is the latest version of the BENDtronic control system, which is installed as standard on all EVO machines. This patented control system is the only one that uses artificial intelligence to optimize your bending result from the very beginning. At the same time it is absolutely intuitive and easy to operate.

The two graphs shown above illustrate the two major advantages of HAEUSLER‘s HYBRID-DRIVESYSTEM. 60% faster speed, which is particularly interesting for bending and calibrating large diameter shells, as well as the huge savings potential in maintenance costs that can be achieved by using the HAEUSLER HYBRID DRIVE SYSTEM.

VSA TECHNOLOGY

ALLOWS BENDING OF THICKER PLATES AND SMALLER DIAMETERS

The new and patent pending VSA® – technology allows the operator to bend either very heavy wall thicknesses or alternatively very small diameters. This can be realized by a unique adjustment of the bending geometry. The EVO is worldwide the only 4-roll plate bender with this unique feature. For our clients it means that they are now in a position to get a machine with up to 85% more bending moment compared to conventional bending machines. Additionally they get the possibility to use super small interchangeable top rolls for bending tight diameters.

RANGE OF APPLICATIONS

The plate bending machine is used to form pipes and pipe segments of cylindrical or conical shape from plates. The following bending operations are possible:

 

• Pre-bending Pre-bending of the plate ends. Rounding Bending of plates to cylindrical work pieces/ work piece segments
• Cone bending. Bending of plates to conical work pieces/ work piece segments
• Press forming. Press forming  of plates to conical work pieces/ work piece segments
• Calibration Equalizing. the diameter of the welded work piece over the whole (Re-rolling) circumference

 

MACHINE RANGE

The following sizes are available as standard with short delivery time.

 

Optional equipment

• HAEUSLER BENDTRONIC® HAEUSLER’s revolutionary BENDtronic® enables anyone to control not only the movements of the machine but also the bending result itself. The software is graphically supported and allows bending in one or more passes. It can also be used for any type of product shape such as cylinders and tubes, ovals, tanks or other more complex geometries.
• Fast reacting overrun brake for precise bending The quick-reacting overrun brakes fitted as standard enable the operators to work very precisely. Furthermore, these brakes are an important safety factor, as they prevent plates from slipping out of the machine unintentionally.
• Fast rolls rotation for increased productivity The quick-reacting overrun brakes fitted as standard enable the operators to work very precisely. Furthermore, these brakes are an important safety factor, as they prevent plates from slipping out of the machine unintentionally.
• Change rolls for bending small diameters Exchangeable rolls enable our customers to bend even very small diameters. HAEUSLER machines are equipped in such a way that the roll in use is automatically recognized and the operating pressure is regulated accordingly.
• Cone bending device, for bending conical parts Allows continuous bending of conical parts with a cone angle greater than 5°.
• Gas accumulator for calibration of welded cylinders During the calibration process, the welded cylinder is clamped between the upper and lower rolls. While the cylinder rotates, the welded seam passes repeatedly between the top and bottom rolls. Due to the gas accumulator the lower roll adapts to the weld seam during rotation. This prevents overloading of the rolls bearings and the drive system.

 

Optional Accessories

• Upper support for simplified bending of large diameters Upper supports simplify the bending of large diameters, since during the bending process the plate to be bent can be held and supported at 12 o’clock position.
• Lateral support for simplified bending of large diameters Lateral supports can be mounted on both sides of the machine and support the plate during bending.
• Infeed roller table for quick and easy feeding of the plates into the machine Infeed roller conveyors (optionally also with centering device) simplify the loading of the machine. Plates are deposited on the roller table and transported from there into the machine.

With the best testimonials

„THE REFERENCE IN ROUND BENDING MACHINES“
In the course of the continuous modernization process at Apaco, the production and management decided to use the newly developed Haeusler EVO. We have now owned the new plate bending machine for almost a year and we are very satisfied. In addition to the excellent HAEUSLER quality, the operation of the EVO in particular is convincing all along the line.
