II. Outstanding Features of STON Bending Series

1. Rigid Mechanical Workpiece Clamping Technology

Suitable for standard bending processes with high flexibility; the heavy frame structure helps reduce vibration for heavier tasks.

2. Superior Operational Performance

  • Maximum productivity: Capable of performing over 5,000 bends per day, increasing efficiency by up to 260% compared to older methods.

  • Complex profiles: Flexibly handles everything from circular arcs, dead edge folding, and closed bending to special shapes without manual tool changes.

3. Intelligent Control System & High-end Sensors

  • Closed-loop Servo System: Utilizes Servo electric motors imported from TRIO (UK origin), enabling real-time motion synchronization with micrometer precision.

  • Bias Load Detection: Combined with an optical Grating Ruler to detect workpiece misalignment, protecting the tooling system and minimizing scrap.

  • Automatic Thickness Compensation: The machine automatically measures and adjusts the tool stroke based on the actual thickness of the metal sheet during each clamping.

4. Industrial Mechanical Construction

  • Ultra-rigid machine body: The machine frame is cast from QT500-7 iron, undergoing natural aging and high-temperature heat treatment processes to eliminate stress, ensuring no deformation over the years.

  • Copper tube lubrication system: Utilizes high-pressure copper oil lines, which are durable and offer superior leak resistance compared to standard PVC plastic tubes.

  • 42CrMo Alloy Steel Bending Tools: Pressure-forged and laser-hardened to ensure exceptional hardness and wear resistance.

5. Optimized Design for Harsh Environments

  • Dedicated electrical cabinet air conditioning: An integrated cooling system helps maintain a stable temperature for electronic components and servo drivers, ensuring 24/7 machine operation even in hot workshop environments.
