Schröder EVO Center 4000×3.0: Automated Folding Center

Schröder EVO Center 4000×3.0: Automated Folding Center


Schröder EVO Center 4000×3.0 is a high-performance, automated folding machine from the Schröder Evolution series. It is designed for serial and high-volume production where minimizing setup time, increasing bend repeatability and accuracy, and minimizing manual labor are essential. This model features a working bending length of 4 and is capable of folding steel sheets up to 3 () thick. The machine is engineered for flexibility, offering bi-directional bending (Up’n Down) capability, automatic tool change, and integration with sheet positioning and handling systems, all managed through the advanced POS 3000 control and automation extensions.

Features and Advantages  
  • Automatic Tool Changer (ATC) for the Clamping Beam: Significantly reduces changeover time, especially when processing small batches or diverse product types.

  • Up'n Down Folding Beam with Programmable Control: Allows bending both downwards and upwards, enabling the processing of flanges and counter-bends without the need to manually flip or manipulate the parts.

  • Motorized Adjustment of the Folding Beam () and Central Crowning Device: Compensates for beam deflection to ensure a uniform bend along the entire sheet length.

  • Powerful and Fast POS 3000 3D Control: Features a color touchscreen display mounted on a traversing guide, enhancing operator convenience. Includes capabilities for remote maintenance and external programming.

  • Back Gauge System with Large U-Shaped Table: Equipped with segmented support plates featuring steel ball casters, suction cups, lateral angle gauges, and lifting elements, ensuring precise and rapid blank positioning.

  • Operational Safety: High safety standards include a light curtain at the rear, double doors at the front, and protected dual-pedal foot switches.
