Bending press system method of mounting tools to such system and method for manufacturing bend products

摘要

A bending press system 1 provided with a bending press with at least one bending station, a tool housing device to house divided tools and a tool exchange device that moves the divided tools between the tool housing device and the bending station and mounts the divided tools on the bending station. The system comprises a first memory means (403) that stores the housing positions of each divided tool housed in the housing device, a second memory means (405) that stores the bending line length, flange length and the bending angle of the bent product, a first computing means (407) to calculate the tool (cross section shape) type to be mounted on the bending station and the length of the bending station, a second computing means (409) to calculate the arrangement of each divided tool on the bending station based on the tool type and length on the bending station, and an NC control means (411) that controls the tool exchange device so that each divided tool is moved from the housing position of the housing device to the arranged position.
