Automation solutions optimize material flow, improve machine use and increase work and process reliability. The building blocks are modular so that the degree of automation can be adapted at a later date. The solutions range from simple handling to fully automatic operation.

Bending is a procedure for forming a flat, sheet metal workpiece. It immediately follows cutting in the processing chain. The workpiece lies on a bottom tool with a v-shaped opening. A wedge-shaped tool (punch) presses the workpiece into the v-opening and thus bends it to the desired angle.

During air bending, the upper tool presses the workpiece into the bottom tool opening, however without bottoming. The workpiece rests solely on the two edges of the bottom tool during the entire bending process.

Laser cutting is a thermal cutting process for processing sheet metal. The laser beam is created by the laser source (resonator), conducted by a transport fiber or mirrors in the machine cutting head where a lens focuses it at very high power on a very small diameter.

Waterjet cutting is a machining process. A high-pressure pump can pump up to 3 liters of water per minute through a 0.28 millimeter water nozzle. This creates a fine jet with extremely high energy density, which is perfect for cutting all kinds of materials.
