Application of Intelligent Technology in Bending Machines

With the advancement of Industry 4.0, the application of intelligent technology in bending machines has become a key driving force for the development of the industry. Intelligent technology not only improves the processing accuracy and production efficiency of bending machines, but also realizes the automation and intelligence of the production process. For example, by integrating advanced sensors and control systems, modern bending machines can achieve precise control over material thickness, bending angle, and force, thereby reducing scrap rates and improving product quality. According to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), the global installation of industrial robots reached a record high of 3.8 million units in 2020, many of which were used for metal processing and bending operations, indicating the enormous potential of intelligent technology in improving production efficiency and quality.

The application of intelligent technology is also reflected in the remote monitoring and maintenance of bending machines. Through Internet of Things (IoT) technology, manufacturers can monitor device status in real-time, predict maintenance needs, thereby reducing downtime and improving device operational efficiency. For example, a well-known bending machine manufacturer in Germany has developed an intelligent monitoring system that can collect and analyze machine operation data in real time, and provide equipment status reports and maintenance recommendations to manufacturers and users through a cloud platform. This intelligent maintenance mode, as management guru Peter Drucker once said, “Effective prevention is better than expensive treatment,” greatly improves the reliability of the bending machine and the production efficiency of users.https://www.mhtcnc.com/product/cnc-bending/
