They can be managed using CNC and Barcode Scanner Reader technology, offering various benefits:
Both the IRIS and IRIS Plus models are combination systems that offer high-performance optical protection during high-speed tool closing. Once the bending process commences, image processing functions take over. These systems capture and process images in real-time and transfer live data to the CNC system via SmartLink. The image processing system is fully integrated within the IRIS and IRIS Plus receivers, eliminating the need for additional hardware or software.
The European press brake standard EN12622 limits bending speed to 10mm/s to ensure a basic level of operator safety by regulating the speed at which material facing towards the operator moves during bending.
However, the machinery directive and EN12622 have provisions for faster bending speeds with wider V dies, as long as certain operations can be adequately monitored. In the CNC system, manufacturers can set faster bend speeds for wider V dies, and the Bend Speed Management process automatically monitors the material's speed as it moves through its bending arc, facilitating a safe condition for faster bending.
