Scalable-automation press brakes
The ideal press brake for dynamic production, the B3 was designed by combining the features and benefits of electric and hydraulic press brakes with Salvagnini’s in-depth knowledge of automation, software, mechanics and electronics.
Change perspective, think results
Regardless of the level of automation chosen from the four available, the B3 remains the solution with the smallest footprint currently available on the market.
Electric Press Brake Overview
Combining the advantages of hydraulic and electric technology with scalable automation and long-term productivity, the Salvagnini B3 electric press brake is a flexible, adaptable machine. The B3 was created with extensive expertise in press brake automation, software, mechanics, and electronics. The B3 is at the forefront of the press brake industry's evolution to emphasize accuracy, efficiency, and flexibility. Its adaptive technology guarantees accuracy without the need for manual corrections, and its automation increases production. The machine's capabilities are further increased by integrated software programs like LINKS, VALUES, and OPS, which provide smooth communication across factory activities, real-time progress tracking, and optimized production procedures that give operators more authority and efficiency.
Product overview
The technical solutions adopted allow it to respect both people and the environment, without reducing productivity. The architecture increases the machine’s versatility, relaxing part geometry constraints.
The integrated adaptive technologies (S-CROWNING, AMS) make the system intelligent, eliminate scrap and part correction, and expand the range of products which can be produced.
The automation devices available (ATA, MVM, AU-TO) combine productivity and flexibility, both for kit and batch-one production.
The proprietary LINKS and OPS softwares establish communication between the system and the company departments involved in the production flow.
Discover How the B3 Is Right for You
AMS: angle measurement system
Laser system that detects variations in the bending angle due to sheet metal springback. Angle measurement can even be performed in a single point, regardless of the length of the press brake, for shorter cycles. It allows measurement recording and active monitoring for greater productivity.
S-CROWNING
The adaptive mechanical crowning system ensures consistent bending along the entire bending length, even if the parameters change, without operator intervention.
Direct Drive
Ram movements are driven by two independent direct-drive brushless motors, which allow both fast approach and fast return movements to be achieved, with speeds as high as 250 mm/s.
Industry 4.0
Digital transformation and Industry 4.0 are key topics for staying competitive on the market. When adopted, they can implement and manage complex, integrated, highly automated high-performance systems, and can help to develop simple solutions that require no structural changes to the production layout, making the world of smart manufacturing much more accessible.
Intelligent system, constant quality
Practically everything you ever wanted to know about the B3 press brake, satisfactorily explained.
ATA/ATA-LT and ATA/MVM are proprietary Salvagnini automation solutions for tool management. They allow kit and batch-one production on press brakes, while keeping high productivity
AU-TO is Salvagnini's patented automatic upper and lower tool changer. It sets up the press brake, guaranteeing it complete independence and efficiency in applying the best strategies according to the production flow
The architecture and technical solutions adopted allow the B3 press brake to respect both people and the environment, without reducing productivity.
MAC2.0 is the set of adaptive technologies (S-CROWNING, AMS) embedded in the press brake. It makes the system intelligent, eliminating scrap and part correction, widening the range of products which can be produced.
Each B3 press brake offers extensive configurability: options and accessories facilitate operation and part handling, enhance the versatility of the press brake or improve its ergonomics (locking devices, backgauges, sheet followers).
All B3 press brakes can be equipped with the OPS process software, which enables communication between the machine and the company ERP. They are also ready to be connected to LINKS, the IoT solution for condition monitoring.
Thanks to their extensive expertise in systems and automation, and wide application experience in sheet metal processing, Salvagnini's specialists are able to help the customer to choose the best solution, whether it be a stand-alone press brake, a robotized bending cell (ROBOformER), a flexible bending cell (FlexCell) or an automatic factory (AJS).
Software
Industry has changed: flexibility and efficiency are fundamental requirements for managing increasingly smaller batches or rapid item turnover rate. And developments in technology have in some way upset the balance between workloads, with increasingly fast systems which however need to be guided by more and more specific machine programs, the generation of which is increasingly time-consuming. This is why software is increasingly crucial to improving the efficiency of machinery.
Salvagnini’s IoT solution, increases the global efficiency of the press brake. LINKS allows real-time monitoring of the machine’s performance and independent analysis.
