A range of functions make bending with the TruBend Series 8000 even safer, easier, more ergonomic and more productive.

Flexibility and precision

TruBend Series 8000, ACB Wireless angle measuring system
ACB Wireless angle measuring system

Sensor disks integrated in the upper tool measure and correct every angle so that you always get accurate results. The user-friendly ACB (Automatically Controlled Bending) wireless system automatically detects the sensor position, facilitating wireless communication between the tool and control.

TruBend Series 8000 Heavy-Duty
ACB laser angle measuring system

ACB Laser is an optical system for angle measurement. Without requiring any contact, the laser projects a line onto the sheet, and a camera detects the angle. This ensures that you get accurate results right from the very first component. For the angle measurement, 2 measuring units automatically move to the correct position without any operator intervention.

Backgauge on the TruBend Series 8000
Backgauges

Up to 6 CNC-controlled backgauge axes position your workpieces precisely and securely so that you can bend accurately along the entire length, even with deep flanges. Optionally, the backgauges are also available in an extremely robust heavy-duty version with a traverse path of up to 1,000 mm.

Crowning on the TruBend Series 8000
Crowning

Automatic crowning works precisely down to the last detail. At a distance of 250 mm, you can adjust the crowning curve precisely to your bending task as required. The crowning can be loaded up to 6,000 kN/m, so that you always get exactly the required press force.

TruBend Series 8000 with lower tool displacement
Lower tool displacement

The lower tool displacement enables you to perform two bending operations with one tool. Specifically, this means that you can increase your part variety, while cutting setup time and investment costs. In addition, special applications such as folding can also be performed effectively with the lower tool displacement.

Energy efficiency

On-Demand Drive

With its On-Demand Drive, the new TruBend Series 8000 also scores highly in terms of sustainability. The revolution speed of the motor is automatically adapted to the movement of the press beam. This achieves energy savings of up to 26% while maintaining extremely quiet bending.

Material handling

An additional screen on the machine control helps to keen operation simple. It can help you to perform shop floor programming while simultaneously carrying out production tasks. The user-friendly display of information on the monitors supports paperless manufacturing.

Innovative control

The new control and navigation of the TruBend Series 8000 combines the advantages of modern multi-touch technology with industrial-grade robustness. This enables you to operate your bending machine as easily and intuitively as a tablet or smartphone – and realise almost any application with ease.

Illumination of the work area on the TruBend Series 8000
Perfect illumination with LEDs

Additional LEDs illuminate the operating area as effectively as possible, ensuring safer operation and better working conditions. At the same time, they prevent heat generation that can be disruptive to the operating personnel.

Tool Indicator with status display

Setup with luminous display – the LED bar in the upper tool clamp clearly indicates the precise locations where the tool stations should be set up. It also provides a visual display of the current machine status and indicates which tool station will be used for the next bend. The illuminated signs reduce unnecessary trips to the control panel.

Bending line laser

The bending line laser allows you to accurately align the parts for bending. For this purpose, the system projects a laser line onto the sheet metal, which serves as a visual aid for the operator during bending. The main benefits of this are reduced rejects and increased productivity. The bending line laser also enables bending on a scribed line, i.e. bending without the support of the backgauge system – for extra working space.

TruTops Boost

Program your bending machine using Tops Boost, the all-in-one solution – from design to the finished NC program. Routine tasks that take up a lot of time can be automated with the click of a button, saving you valuable working time. You also profit from comprehensive rule sets that incorporate TRUMPF's collective technical expertise.

TecZone Bend

Program faster than ever before: with TecZone Bend you can combine bend programming in the office with shop floor programming at the TruBend bending machine. A program suggestion is automatically created in a few seconds based on 2D and 3D data – including NC program.

Software

The software portfolio from TRUMPF optimises your entire production process – from the customer query to delivery of the finished part. TRUMPF combines the software intelligently with machines and services to create customised Industry 4.0 solutions for your smart factory.

ToolShuttle
Tool magazine

ToolShuttle, the practical tool magazine, stands directly next to your TruBend Series 8000 machine. Tools are simply pushed in and out of the machine during setup, which is particularly convenient for heavy tools and also saves time. The ToolShuttle has space for nearly 60 m of tools and ensures everything is organised.

Standard tools

You can choose between more than 150 upper and lower tool types for your personal range. You can order tools individually or as a set.

CDW tools

These bending tools with consistent die width use an innovative die geometry to combine multiple functions in one design. This makes bending easier, faster and more flexible than ever. The special geometry simultaneously ensures a narrower impression width on the sheet, optimal bending foil effect, and a shorter minimum flange length.

Special tool

For specific requirements, TRUMPF will develop your own personal tool solution. To guarantee the quality of your parts, we test the tools in advance with your specific material and create initial sample parts. This allows you to remain as flexible as possible in the production of components, or even cover additional applications.

Automation solution with Starmatik

With the robot on a movable transverse rail, the TruBend 8000 can bend sheets up to eight metres in length with a maximum weight of 220 kilograms fully automatically. The configuration is tailored to your needs. If required, you can add a storage connection, centering station, gripper and tool change along with a regripping station and other sheet processing processes, such as joining or thermoforming. The entire solution can be programmed offline.
