Metevo MX-1417
Entry-level automated panel bender, specifically designed for high-performance serial production of sheet metal parts with a maximum bending length of 1400 mm.
• Flexible automation The use of universal tooling allows for a wide range of standard bends, while manual adjustment of the blank holder (BMS) takes only 8–10 minutes, which is optimal for medium and large production batches.
• Stable technology Applied technical solutions, including a fully electric manipulator and pneumatic drives, guarantee reliability and high performance. The equipment features long-term durability with a tool life of approximately 1 million bends, ensuring stable quality with minimal maintenance.
• Adaptive system Intuitive 2D software and factory calibration for the customer's working thickness range allow for rapid production startup and minimize operator errors. The system is optimized for standard materials, ensuring high angular precision without complex setup requirements.
• 4.0 Connectivity The proprietary MX HMI software environment and optional 3D CAM module provide convenient machine control and direct import of STEP files to speed up the programming process. Support is provided through local Salvagnini service centers, ensuring fast access to expertise and spare parts.
