All electric (8 Axis) tube bending machine for oil and brake line. The SOCO SB-OTM-15 is a dedicated CNC brake line bender, designed for small tubing, especially Bundy tubes. Max. bending capacity up to OD 15 mm with 8 electric axis and a unique design to allow bending the most complex shapes and parts, it offers the most advanced solution and performance in its range.


Automation
  • 8 Electric Axis controlling bending, tube rotation and carriage movement
  • Automatic bending head reversal (left-to-right) when reaching central clamping area, providing a fully automatic cycle for the entire bending process
  • Optional automatic loading and unloading
Performance
  • Centralized clamping and rotation system for true simultaneous moving of all axis
  • Lowest cycle times because minimal number of moving parts
  • Suitable for brake line tubing up to 5000 mm
  • Unparalleled speed: 1 bend = 2.8 second (OD 15.9 mm x 1.5t)
Maximum Working Area = Minimal Interference
  • No interference with machine bed
  • No conventional bending arm
  • No pressure die and wiper die seat interferences
  • Central clamping and rotation away from bending zone
  • Overmode (arm return mode) capabilities
Software
  • May program up to 50 bends per part, with on-screen 3D part display
  • Data entry for both XYZ and YBC coordinates
  • Overmode (arm return mode) offers flexibility to offset each bend and avoid bending interferences
  • Integrated automatic bending vompensation and reverse engineering of bends when connected to CMM measuring systems
  • Connection to local area network (LAN) (optional)
Options:
  • Tube bender tooling
  • Machine feeding length / mandrel length extensions
  • 3 sides safety fencing with doors and interlocks
  • Safety mat
  • SICK laser scanner
  • Light curtains / photocell barriers
  • SOCO i2 controls – offline version
  • SOCO CAD reader
  • Interface to AICON systems
  • Interface to CMM systems
  • SOCO bending simulation + collision detection software
  • SOCO production report system
  • SOCO machine maintenance tracking system
  • Air conditioning system for IPC
  • Air conditioning system for electric cabin
  • Setup for future connection to SOCO automation systems
