LVD/Strippit – ToolCell

Friday, April 12th, 2013

ToolCell is a press brake with an integrated automated tool changing system. Storage of a library of top and bottom tooling is housed within a “tooling stadium” located behind the machine’s backgauge unit. An innovative gripper design built into the machine’s backgauge finger allows the backgauge to serve as the tool changer mechanism.

The ToolCell automatically changes the top and bottom tooling as required for the job. Tools are all held within the machine, significantly minimizing tool changeover time and improving bending productivity.

ToolCell features LVD’s patented Easy-Form® Laser in process angle monitoring and
correction technology ensuring first part, good part accuracy. LVD’s latest generation 19” touch screen control, Touch-B, features intuitive graphical icons used to control all parameters of the machine for fast and efficient operation

LVD STRIPPIT INTRODUCES AUTO TOOL CHANGING PRESS BRAKE

ToolCell LVDST 490x392 LVD STRIPPIT INTRODUCES AUTO TOOL CHANGING PRESS BRAKE

Akron, NY – LVD Strippit introduces the ToolCell press brake system with integrated tool changer unit. ToolCell’s automated tool changing system reduces press brake set up time, maximizing throughput and efficiency for small to medium batch production.

ToolCell addresses the trend toward reduced batch sizes and shortened lead times, as well as the need to increase throughput to allow for reduced stock levels and the manufacture of the exact quantity just in time for the production line. ToolCell also reduces labor cost by eliminating the necessity for skilled labor experienced in tool set-up procedures.

INNOVATIVE TOOL CHANGER 
ToolCell is a hydraulic press brake with integrated storage of a library of top and bottom tooling housed within a “tooling stadium” located under the machine’s backgauge. An innovative gripper design built into the machine’s backgauge finger allows the backgauge to serve as the tool changer mechanism.

As the operator prepares for the next job, selecting the worksheet or moving blank parts to the machine, the press brake automatically changes the top and bottom tooling as required for the job. Tools are all held within the machine, significantly minimizing tool changeover time.

PRECISION SET UPS 
All tool stations are precisely positioned by the gripper mechanism. Adjustment of tooling stations typically experienced when manually setting tools is eliminated, therefore optimizing overall bending performance.

ADVANCED PRESS BRAKE 
ToolCell is a robust, precision press brake equipped with state-of-the-art hydraulics and electronics offered in multi-axis configurations. The press brake is built on a rigid frame design to ensure accuracy.

This press brake system features the patented Easy-Form® Laser in process angle monitoring and correction technology ensuring consistency from the first to the last part.. Easy-Form Laser uses measurement at the front and back of the die to determine the exact value of the angle of the workpiece. The sensing devices transmit information in real time to the CNC control unit, which processes it and subsequently recalculates the correct depth adjustment in process to obtain the correct angle. The bending process is not interrupted, and no production time is lost.

ToolCell is equipped with LVD Strippit’s latest generation 19” touch screen control, Touch-B. Touch-B features intuitive graphical icons used to control all parameters of the machine, ensuring fast and efficient operation. ToolCell can also be simply programmed offline using LVD Strippit’s CADMAN®-B Tool Changer module.

ToolCell is initially in a 150 ton by 10 foot configuration with additional models of 190 or 240 ton bending force and 10 foot or 13 foot bend length configurations to follow. The system features capacity to hold up to two complete lengths of self-seating top tooling (punches) and five complete lengths of bottom tooling (Vee dies). The tooling stadium can be equipped with a flexible tooling configuration to suit specific application requirements.

LVD introduces patented Adaptive Laser Cutting system for high productivity, consistent processing accuracy.

Thursday, March 28th, 2013

thumbcc lvdadaptivelaser450px LVD introduces patented Adaptive Laser Cutting system for high productivity, consistent processing accuracy.

LVD introduces patented Adaptive Laser Cutting system for high productivity, consistent processing accuracy. LVD introduces its patented Adaptive Laser Cutting system technology that provides real-time monitoring and feedback control of the laser cutting process to achieve high productivity, quality control and reduced scrap.

The development of ALC continues LVD’s history of innovation in the field of machine intelligence and real-time in-process control systems such as the company’s patented Easy-Form® Laser bend angle monitoring and correction system introduced in 2002, which has revolutionized the industry assuring consistent and accurate bending from the first to the last part.

ALC uses a dynamic feedback system to monitor and regulate laser power, speed and assist gas pressure in real time during the cutting process, automatically optimizing cutting parameters and ensuring a consistently accurate cut.

Unlike other process controls systems, ALC does not rely on pre-defined parameters but measures and adapts in process to achieve the optimal cutting results.

This unique system is particularly useful when processing thicker mild steels in an unmanned environment. In such applications, machine speed is often restricted to ensure reliability and account for potential variations in material properties, limiting productivity and increasing the cost per part. ALC automatically adjusts to changing conditions, processing at the highest speed with the most efficiency and so alleviates the need to restrict or control the laser cutting system, providing up to a 10 percent increase in productivity. Consistently accurate processing also eliminates scrap or rework of expensive thicker materials.

ALC is now a standard feature on select models of LVD’s Impuls series laser cutting machines.     633241907558007994 m LVD introduces patented Adaptive Laser Cutting system for high productivity, consistent processing accuracy.

tool21 Advanced Tooling Technology

Strippit V-Series punch presses accommodate the latest tooling technology for high-performance

fabricating. These capabilities further reduce set-up time, enhance productivity and promote long life

with minimal maintenance costs. Advanced tooling technology provides:

  • Quick set up
  • Long tool life
  • Quick and precise tool length adjustment
  • Low maintenance costs
  • Slug control capabilitytool1 Advanced Tooling Technology

Multi-Tool, a unique concept in machine tooling, dramatically boosts turret capacity. The Multi-Tool

indexing mechanism, standard on all Strippit V-Series punch presses, allows each station within the

Multi-Tool to be automatically indexed. This eliminates the need for specially keyed punches and

dies and allows indexing of a greater range of commonly used tools. Once loaded, Multi-Tool

remains in the turret, reducing set-up time. Subsequent tool selection by program is completed

in less than one second.

Form tooling increases machine versatility and reduces secondary operations. Precise programmable

ram control on the hydraulic ram minimizes part springback and produces an exceptionally accurate

formed part. Wheel tooling, including rollcut and rollform capabilities, permits quick and efficient

cutting and/or forming of straight or curved shapes without nibbling. Strippit V-Series punch presses

also employ part marking technology for part number or sheet marking requirements and can utilize

tapping tools. tool3 Advanced Tooling Technology
