TWS and TWD Series

TWS Series – Left and Right Hand CNC Benders. We have created a machine that will cost less while retaining all of quality, speed, and flexibility. We have achieved this by re-engineering and utilizing all the newest technologies available, specifically from Mitsubishi. In our extensive interaction with our customers, they have told us today’s critical challenges are quicker tooling changeover and decreased cycle times. Comco not only listened but also implemented a quick-change tooling process that allows set-ups in less than 10 minutes, as well as a faster servo response for a quicker cycle time.

TWD Series – Left and Right Hand CNC Benders, but is equipped with two bend heads. One on each side. Truly, designed to maximums clearance.

Mechanical Features

  • Dual and triple radius available
  • Compact footprint saves your floor space
  • Compact, heavy-duty Bend Head provides maximum clearance for difficult part shapes
  • Drop-away, positive-locking clamp die assembly
  • Sealed, air cooled hydraulics for chuck, clamp & pressure systems
  • Standard 3 jaw chuck system
  • THK bearings & rails used throughout provide smooth, precise movements of axes
  • Sealed cabinet for electronics to prevent contamination and associated noise issues

Safety Systems

  • Safety Mat system has selectable features: Provides a true ‘one-stop’ capability that will allow automatic continuation of bending from the point of stop at the press of a button; or stops bender with clamp and pressure open or closed, shutting off the hydraulics.
  • E-Stop on Console & Operator Pedestal
  • Hydraulic Motor Shut-Off (E-Stop or Safety Mat) with tool release for maximum operator protection
  • Bend Arm Return, Safety Shut-Down Plate
  • User-friendly platform that can be configured to standard PC components (printers, external media storage, networking) for backups, CAD and measuring center interface, or standard PC printers.

Electronic Systems

  • Mitsubishi AC servo drives and motors (Up to 10)
  • Absolute encoders eliminate “origination” process, as well as zero and speed reduction sensors, therefore improving operation and reducing failure points
  • Mitsubishi PLC machine controller ensures flexibility and stability, providing safe, fast, and efficient operation.
  • Input/output isolation modules improve diagnostics and reduce repair expenses.

Windows Controller Features

  • “Teach Mode” function for part programming provides easiest method of creating advanced part movement quickly without complicated avoidance moves or sequencing.
  • Detailed production history, alarm history, and machine monitoring functions help track production, monitor performance and diagnose programming or machine faults quickly.
  • Extensive part storage capability allows quick changeovers and easy access to all programs
  • Log-in levels as “operator” and “manager” allow control of access to machine function. “Manager” can allow or limit access to any and all operator functions including change of programs, part appointments, clear and store of data, and machine parameters.
