The Linear Series 980LE is a CNC tube bending machine for tubes up to 3,15 inches in diameter.
Features include:

• standard 220,5'' frame length can be extended with or without the recovery cycle
• pneumatic balance, a cutting-edge system that improves energy savings and performance
• extremely small steel bending head with chain driven transmission
• more space under the bending head to process more complex tube geometries in a single cycle
• bending direction can be reconfigured manually to set up and start up more quickly
• compact size ensures extreme versatility
• vertical excursion enables simultaneous use of more than one set of tools at the same with different radii and clamping
• designed for easy integration with already existing tools
• reliability guaranteed by technological solutions
• reduced change of component damage from accidental collision
• horizontal dynamics of the plane positioner
• axes on recirculating ball and roller guides that reduce wear and improve performance
• can use with a wide range of accessories, such as the Tangent Boost device to push the tube axially during bending also in the area of the slide and wiper-die
• quicker processes and reduced scrap
• optional cutting system
• high production rate
• use with a vast range of accessories for specific and unusual jobs
• can produce bends with CLR/DIA ratio lower than 0.8, or thrust bends with variable radius
• 9 controlled axes driven by Full Electric motors
• CNC Siemens 840D sl
• 3D graphics software on a 19” LCD touch screen
• intuitive interaction for easy programming, simulation and optimization of tube
• designed to be integrated into Smart Factory systems
