The P2 panel bender is one of the most successful models in the Salvagnini range. With its universal bending tools and automatic bending and handling cycles, it natively combines productivity and flexibility, completing an average of 17 bends per minute. No re-tooling is required because the upper and lower blades, counterblade, and blankholder are universal tools that are able to process the whole range of thicknesses and machinable materials. The automatic blankholder adapts the tool length according to the size of the part being produced in-cycle, without machine downtimes or manual re-tooling. P2 is really the perfect solution for batch-one and kit production. Its advanced sensor technology measures the actual thickness and effective size of the blank, detecting any deformations caused by variations in temperature, while MAC3.0 allows the P2 to adapt to the material being machined by measuring the tensile strength in real-time and automatically compensating for any variations in the range ±25% of the reference value. MAC3.0 greatly reduces the risk of obtaining faulty parts and eliminates reworking and material waste - increasing financial sustainability.
At Lamiera the new P2 2225 panel bender model will be unveiled for the very first time worldwide. This new size reaches a maximum bending height of 254 mm and confirms the characteristics of productivity, flexibility, precision, high technological content, reduced energy consumption, and compact layout that have always made P2 particularly attractive to the market. A wide range of options extends its application horizons: the DPM device available on the panel bender on display in Milan, for example, allows the handling of narrow parts or material-free frames with a minimum width of 135 mm.
