PRESS BRAKE EVO APD
Press Brake EVO APD – Productive Bending with Greendrive, Precision, and Industry 4.0 Integration
Why Choose EVO APD?
The EVO APD Press Brake by Evomatec combines servo-hydraulic drive technology (Greendrive) with intelligent CNC control and full Industry 4.0 connectivity.
The result: shorter cycle times, consistent angular precision, and measurably lower energy consumption — ideal for automated production cells and demanding continuous operation.
Performance That Pays Off – Efficiency at the Touch of a Button
-
Fast approach, bending, and return speeds for higher throughput.
-
Greendrive saves energy: When no axis movement is required, the hydraulics stop — the servo motor activates only when needed.
-
Constant process quality through precise axis guidance and dynamic pressure control.
-
Automatic speed change 2 mm above sheet height ensures safe and smooth penetration.
Technical Core Specifications
-
CNC axes: up to 6 (Y1, Y2, X, R, Z1, Z2) – multi-axis backgauge with R-axis for height adjustment.
-
Positioning accuracy: up to ±0.01 mm (depending on configuration).
-
Automatic crowning: compensates frame deflection for uniform angles across the entire bending length.
-
Robot-ready: interfaces and layouts for tandem or robotic cells.
-
CE safety: light curtains, protective guards, dual-hand control, and emergency stop.
CNC Operation – Graphical, Fast, and Reliable
2D Graphical Control
The system features a 15″ touchscreen with fully graphical programming, including tool and material databases.
It automatically calculates bending force, sequence, allowance, radius, and compensation.
Real-time collision checking and angle control ensure process reliability (external angle sensors can be integrated).
Network/USB connectivity, remote maintenance, and backup functions are standard.
Control System Options
-
Delem DA-58T: 2D touchscreen, automatic bending sequences, crowning templates, and collision detection.
-
CybTouch 15 PS: compact 2D operation with guided assistants, closed/open-loop valve control, and WLAN diagnostics.
-
Beckhoff CNC (optional): PC-based platform open for full line integration and data communication.
Backgauge and Metal Forming Performance
-
Planetary gearbox for durable, repeatable accuracy — even with complex geometries.
-
XR backgauge: height-adjustable fingers enable fast reconfiguration between draw, box, and multi-bend operations.
-
Dynamic crowning: software-controlled system prevents angle deviations and reduces post-processing.
Ergonomics and Safety
-
Bending aid: supports up to 300 kg, tiltable up to 30°, automatic height adjustment — relieves the operator with large sheets.
-
Foot pedal control allows hands-free handling during bending.
-
CE-certified safety package: laser light curtains, integrated safety logic, and protective housings — also for tandem setups.
Tooling and Setup
-
European standard clamping system (upper/lower tools) for maximum compatibility.
-
Hydraulic quick clamping and lever-fastening system for short setup times.
-
Evomatec Multi-V lower dies for variable material thicknesses and radii — Z-bends possible thanks to a narrow lower beam.
-
Extensive range of punches, dies, radius, and flattening tools available.
Digitally Connected – Ready for Industry 4.0
The EVO APD integrates seamlessly into smart factory environments with Ethernet/USB connectivity, remote support, and centralized data management for programs and tooling.
It connects to robotic cells and MES/ERP systems, enabling live feedback on production, quality, and runtime data.
Integrated sensors provide the foundation for predictive maintenance by monitoring hydraulic and drive system conditions.
Typical Application Fields
-
Sheet metal and fabrication: enclosures, brackets, panels, and covers.
-
Facade and HVAC industries: long profiles and thin sheet metal components.
-
Machine and equipment manufacturing: high-precision serial and small-batch production.
-
Automotive and commercial vehicles: consistent precision for structural and functional parts.
