SweBend Highlighted Projects

A Cutting Edge Machine Bending Project:

Kaukora Oy of Finland approached the Swebend team in search of a new machine which would straighten plates from a decoiler, for use in laser cutting. 

The Challenge:

This project was not without its challenges, but it was nothing the experienced and talented Swebend team could not overcome.

Precision is key in any project such as this, so our team were well aware of the importance of ensuring that the dimensions of the machine were 100% correct, throughout the production process. We were also careful to ensure that we had the correct calculations for the cambered rolls on this machine – there was, as always, no margin for error.

The Task:

Our customer gave us the brief of creating a machine which would fit their needs perfectly. The team at Kaukora Oy of Finland were in search of a machine which would be able to straighten plates with a range of 1-4mm thickness and a width of 1500mm, for any length they required.
