Entry and economical panel bending technology
Panel Bender
YAWEI panel bender series compared
YAWEI offers three panel bender lines, which are mainly in Differentiate between level of automation, flexibility and performance: FBA, FBC and FBE.
All three machines are designed for precise, repeatable 4-sided bending, but clearly differ in target group and performance.
Automated all-rounder with high flexibility
High-end and fully automated for maximum productivity
All series deliver precise and repeatable results
Model selection
Three models for different requirements.
FBA
Universal entry into panel bending technology.
- Most economical solution for switching from press brakes
- Manual but fast tool changes
- Solid CNC control and servo drives
- Particularly suitable for series production with recurring parts
FBC
Automated all-rounder with high flexibility.
- Automatic tool change ohne Produktionsstopp
- Hinge tools for complex geometries
- Higher efficiency with changing parts
- Surface-friendly processing durch intelligente Mechanik
FBE
High-end panel bender for maximum automation.
- Fully automatic tool change with length adjustment
- Intelligent positioning for asymmetrical parts
- Integrated compensation for highest precision
- Offline programming and extensive automation functions
Direct comparison
FBA, FBC and FBE in practice.
| Kriterium | FBA (Universal) | FBC (Auto Tool Change) | FBE (High Performance) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Positionierung | Entry level / all-rounder | Mid-range / flexible | High-end / maximum automation |
| Tool change | Manual (quick-clamp system) | Automatically during process | Fully automatic + intelligent adaptation |
| Automation level | Medium | High | Very high |
| Flexibility | Good for standard parts | Very good for complex geometries | Extremely flexible, including asymmetrical parts |
| Productivity | Good | High | Very high (maximum efficiency) |
| Operation | Simple, intuitive | CNC + automated processes | Fully integrated CNC + offline programming |
| Typical application | Series production, Standard parts | Complex parts, frequent changes | High-end production, variant-rich manufacturing |
| Investment level | Low | Medium | High |
Conclusion
Clear technology grading for modern sheet metal production.
- FBA = entry and profitability
- FBC = Flexibility and Automation
- FBE = high-end and maximum productivity
With this, YAWEI covers almost all requirements of modern sheet metal fabrication - from the classic job shop to fully automated series production.
