Introduction
In recent years, the construction of new infrastructure projects such as ultra-high voltage power lines, charging stations, 5G networks, and data centers has been accelerating. This surge in demand within the electrical industry has created a vast market opportunity for electrical cabinets. These cabinets, made through sheet metal processing, are essential for protecting components and ensuring their normal operation. Among the various processes involved in sheet metal fabrication, bending has often been considered a bottleneck, affecting the overall production cycle and the final dimensions and appearance of the products. However, with Han’s Laser advanced bending forming equipment, the challenges posed by this bottleneck can be overcome, leading to enhanced efficiency and quality in electrical cabinet manufacturing and driving the industry’s transformation and upgrade.
Streamlining the Bending Process
Certain sheet metal components in electrical cabinets, such as side panels and front panels, often feature larger dimensions and more complex bending requirements. Han’s Laser bending machines address these challenges by incorporating a design that offers increased enclosed height, throat depth, and slide travel. This expansion in processing range and mold utilization effectively caters to the bending and forming needs of large and intricate workpieces.
Precision and Consistency
With precise control through CNC systems and the integration of mechanical compensation, grating rulers, high-precision backgauge, and high-frequency control valves, Han’s Laser bending machines further enhance bending accuracy. The machines allow for the continuous bending of multiple workpieces, ensuring consistent forming precision within the same batch. This capability meets the high-precision, large-scale processing demands of the electrical industry for cabinet sheet metal components, facilitating subsequent processes such as laser welding, coating, and assembly.
Energy Efficiency and Environmental Sustainability
The laser bending machines feature a detachable and washable separate oil tank design, reducing oil consumption and facilitating cleaning and maintenance. By promoting carbon reduction, energy savings, and lower consumption during production, these machines contribute to the energy-efficient and eco-friendly development of electrical manufacturing.
Automation and Workforce Optimization
Compared to other sheet metal processing operations, bending requires higher levels of employee skill, particularly for larger and heavier workpieces that may require two-person lifting during edge folding, consuming time and effort. Han’s Laser bending machines are equipped with automation interfaces, allowing seamless integration with Han’s robots for automatic bending unit coordination. The robotic arms can complete tasks such as material handling, alignment, bending, flipping, and stacking without human intervention, enabling unmanned operations.
