Product Overview

The Robot Bending Cell supports both six-axis and seven-axis robot configurations. The seventh axis is independently developed and manufactured, allowing flexible rail travel length configuration according to different factory layouts and workpiece requirements.

With robot payload options from 20kg to 600kg, the APB Series Robot Bending Cell can be integrated with the full range of CNC press brakes and customized according to customer production needs.


Main Features and Advantages

Six-Axis and Seven-Axis Configurations Available
The robotic bending system can be configured with six-axis or seven-axis structures according to different application requirements. The additional seventh axis is a self-developed robot travel axis with flexible guide rail length configuration. This design allows the robot movement range to be adjusted according to workpiece size, production layout, and automation requirements.

Compatible with Full Series CNC Press Brakes
The Robot Bending Cell can be combined with different CNC press brake models to create customized automated bending solutions. The system is commonly configured with 6+1 axis CNC press brakes to achieve precise coordination between robot handling and bending operations. The final configuration can be selected based on product size, bending process, and production requirements.

Customized Automation Solutions
Every sheet metal product has different bending requirements. The APB Series provides customized robotic bending solutions based on customer drawings. Customers can provide workpiece drawings, and our engineering team will design a suitable automatic bending solution according to production requirements.

Improve Productivity and Reduce Labor Intensity
For companies producing large quantities of sheet metal components, the APB Series Robot Bending Cell significantly reduces repetitive manual operations. The robot automatically performs material handling, positioning, and bending assistance, reducing operator workload and improving production efficiency.The system can also connect with upstream and downstream equipment to build a complete automated sheet metal production line.

Company Profile Engineering Bending Around Your Production

Leadway was founded by a team of engineers who have worked in press brake development, manufacturing, commissioning and technical service for many years. Key technical members bring 17 to 22 years of industry experience, with expertise covering mechanical design, electro-hydraulic servo control, CNC systems, intelligent bending and automation.

This combination of experience enables us to connect machine structure, control technology and actual production rather than treating them as separate disciplines. From frame stability and ram synchronization to positioning, crowning and robotic handling, our team focuses on the technologies that directly affect bending accuracy, efficiency and long-term reliability.

Building on this engineering foundation, Leadway continues to refine its press brakes and intelligent bending systems around precision, efficiency and long-term reliability.
