Thalmann TD is a high-performance folding machine featuring Up-and-Down technology, which eliminates the need to flip the material manually. This significantly increases production speed while making the workflow safer and more efficient. The machine combines unique Control-Shaft kinematic technology for synchronous force distribution with DFT (Dynamic Folding Technology) for a fast, smooth, and highly precise bending process. The Thalmann TD is designed for the industrial manufacturing of large and complex profiles with minimal operator intervention.
Features and Advantages
Up-and-Down Bending: Capability to perform counter-bends and complex sequences without flipping the workpiece, enhancing productivity and ergonomics.
Control-Shaft (Kinematic Synchronization): Ensures uniform force distribution across the entire machine length, guaranteeing repeatable accuracy and long-term durability under heavy loads.
Dynamic Folding Technology (DFT): Synchronous movement of multiple axes to reduce cycle downtime and accelerate the process without sacrificing precision.
Automatic Material Thickness Adjustment: Hydraulic correction of the tool gap for an optimal bend radius every time, regardless of material or thickness changes.
Programmable Crowning: Automatic deflection compensation to ensure consistent angles on long workpieces.
High Automation Potential: Options for side-loading, automatic flipping lines, and automatic unloading allow for single-operator management and lower production costs.
Standard Equipment
Technology: Control-Shaft synchronization and DFT (Dynamic Folding Technology).
Hydraulic System: Depressurized circulation circuit with a large 250-liter tank; provides high speed and low noise (Super-High-Speed option available).
Adjustments: Hydraulic automatic material thickness adjustment and programmable crowning.
Tooling: Modular (segmented) tool geometry for the upper and lower beams for high profiling flexibility.
Positioning: Basic backgauge systems and stop-fingers for automated sheet positioning.
Lighting: LED illumination of the bending zone.
Optional Equipment (Automation Modules)
Integrated Side-Loading: Automated sheet drawing into the machine from a supply rack; supports multi-feed loading.
Automatic Flipping Unit: Enables fully automated bend sequences without any manual handling.
Automatic Unloading: Buffer system for finished products to increase throughput and prevent surface damage.
Gripper Configurations: Double grippers, multi-section grippers, and tapered grippers for simultaneous bending of multiple parts or conical profiles.
Suction Units: Electric suction cups in the gauging table to fix the sheet for POS-controlled automated processing.
Longitudinal Slitter: Electric slitting unit integrated into the guide rail to cut and bend in one operation.
Hemming & Roll-former: Modular units for forming hems or curls in a single pass.
Hardox Tooling: Wear-resistant tools for heavy-duty bending operations.
M-Guard: Secure remote access for diagnostics, updates, and service.
