This invention concerns bending apparatus for thin sheet materials, which apparatus comprises a frame (11) and at least two facingly arranged bending units (1, 2), which are attached to the frame, equipped with bending members connected to drive means and complemented with a top and bottom push clamp (4, 5). At least one bending unit (2) is arranged transferrable in respect to a second bending unit (1), placed essentially perpendicular to the first unit, in order to align the sheet (10) to be bent to a desired bending position. Thereby the top and bottom push clamps (4, 5) act as sheet clamps serving to transfer the sheet during alignment and/or to determine the bending position of the sheet. Said transferrable bending unit (2) is mounted on guides (12) and the positioning of the unit is arranged controllable by digital means. |
