Press Brake Tending

Bend Without Bottlenecks

Acieta designs and integrates robotic press brake tending systems customized to your products and equipment.

Our deep experience extends from small parts to large pieces weighing hundreds of pounds, and from simple high-volume runs to complex multi-bend sequences that demand precision re-grip and part repositioning.

Capabilities

A press brake running below capacity is one of the most common bottlenecks in metal fabrication, and one of the most solvable.

  • Acieta engineers robotic cells for high-mix, small-part bending applications, with automatic gripper changing and re-grip capability to handle complex part sequences without operator intervention.

  • Our systems handle large, heavy sheet metal parts that are difficult and dangerous to manage manually, with end-of-arm tooling designed around your specific part geometry and weight.

  • Acieta integrates robotic tending systems with new press brakes and existing equipment, protecting your current investment while adding the speed and consistency of automation.

  • Acieta programs complex, multi-bend sequences with precision re-grip and part repositioning, handling the kind of intricate bend programs that make manual operation slow and inconsistent.

  • Vision-guided laser sorting identifies and routes incoming blanks before bending, ensuring the right part reaches the brake in the right orientation every time.

  • Developed in partnership with MC Machinery Systems, FastBEND is a purpose-built robotic bending cell featuring the Diamond BB Series electric press brake, dual pallet stations, squaring station, automatic gripper changing, and ample tool storage, designed for small to medium parts at mid- to high-volume production rates.

Benefits

More Uptime

Robotic brake tending keeps your press running at full capacity across every shift, without the fatigue, variability, or scheduling constraints of manual operation.

Consistent Results

Automated part positioning and precision re-grip capability deliver repeatable bend angles that manual handling struggles to match, especially on complex multi-bend programs.

Safer Floor

Removing operators from repetitive heavy lifting and pinch-point exposure significantly reduces injury risk and creates a better working environment for your team.

Redeployed Labor

Your skilled fabricators move off the brake and onto higher-value work, without reducing output — in many cases, while increasing it.

Built for High Mix

FastBEND and Acieta's custom brake tending solutions are designed to handle a broad mix of part types and sizes, so your system stays productive as your order mix changes.
