CONTROL SYSTEM

Clear programming at the machine

GWMT WPA Press Brakes control system

The control, backgauge, tooling, and safety scope are selected together so the operating sequence remains clear from the first part to the next repeat batch.

  • Graphical program review
  • Material and tooling context
  • Repeatable positioning workflow
  • Clear operator feedback

DETAILED DESIGN & COMPONENTS

Precision systems for repeatable bends

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Mechanical crowning
01

Mechanical crowning

A deformation-compensation algorithm coordinates ram and bed deflection. The mechanical crowning mechanism offsets bending-load deformation to help maintain dimensional accuracy in repeat production.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Precision backgauge fingers
02

Precision backgauge fingers

High-strength, wear-resistant fingers provide a stable positioning reference. Adjustable travel and spacing support different sheet sizes while the locking adjustment maintains repeatable dimensions.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Teghmation integrated servo drive
03

Teghmation integrated servo drive

The integrated drive architecture keeps the layout compact. Bus compatibility and precise analogue control simplify commissioning, while its cooling design supports lower noise and controlled oil temperature.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Ball screw and linear guide
04

Ball screw and linear guide

The precision ball screw reduces transmission friction for accurate positioning. A rigid linear guide helps the backgauge travel smoothly and consistently through long production runs.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes GIVI linear scale
05

GIVI linear scale

The GIVI scale provides micron-level closed-loop detection with dual-signal output. Its industrial shielding resists interference and supports real-time compensation for consistent batch dimensions.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Quick clamping system
06

Quick clamping system

The three-section quick clamp distributes clamping force evenly across compatible tooling. One-step locking and release streamline tool changes while helping the tooling remain securely positioned.

OPTIONAL COMPONENTS

Extend the WPA platform for your parts

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Material follower

Material follower

An automatic follower supports large sheets in synchrony with the press brake, reducing gravity-induced movement during bending and improving handling efficiency.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Laser protection

Laser protection

Protection covers the high-risk zone beneath the upper die. Local protection can be disabled for complex bends, while automatic slowdown near the sheet balances access and safety.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Tool rack

Tool rack

A multi-level roller rack keeps different die sizes organised, smooth to retrieve, and ready for the next setup. Locking casters combine flexible movement with stable placement.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Laser alignment device

Laser alignment device

A projected reference laser accelerates sheet alignment, helping improve bend straightness and dimensional consistency. The adjustable bracket fits different tooling and sheet-processing setups.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Magnetic front support

Magnetic front support

A high-strength magnetic support holds the leading edge of thin or long sheets during bending. It installs without tools and has an adjustable angle scale for varied bend work.

GWMT WPA Press Brakes Custom tooling

Custom tooling

For complex workpieces, special structures, or high-precision bend requirements, custom dies can be specified from the drawing or sample to match the intended process.
