1.) Comparison of planning and costing effort
2.) Comparison of throughput time for tool implementation
3.) Comparison of initial commissioning time (= machine downtime)
4.) Comparison of production costs for bending tool
5.) Comparison of setup time
6.) Comparison of machine and tool technology*
Technical recommendations
Radial: R60 (on RM-NC) / R100 (on GRM-NC)
- Strip dimensions (max.): approx. 2mm × 40mm / 2mm × 60mm
- Wire diameters (max.): approx. 4mm / 6mm
- Main working area diameter: 60mm (RM-NC) / 100mm (GRM-NC)
If the bends are within the main working area, the formed part can generally be mapped with the modular tool kit. - Up to approx. 8 bends for the bending part
(for >8 bends the linear principle is recommended)
Linear: L250 (on GRM-NC and BIMERIC Modular)
- More than 8 bends
- Strip dimensions (max.): approx. 2mm x 60mm
- Module length: 250mm
