Autobrake 1212 from Roper Whitney offers rotating beam

Roper Whitney has released the Autobrake 1212, which provides accuracy and repeatability when forming 12-ga. mill steel and 14-ga. stainless steel, according to the company. The machine features the rotating Kombi beam, which expands the machine’s folding capabilities to produce straight to box and pan bending in 11 sec. The box tooling is 6.3 in. high, precision-ground and laser-hardened to 60. Pieces also are laser-etched with the length of the tool for simple box setup.

Material is positioned with the optional left-hand or right-hand backgauge extension. The Synergy control system offers multiple methods of programming, from simple line-by-line to draw-to-auto programs. Its network capabilities allow for multiple integrations, such as Konnect, Konstruct, Konstruct Mobile, and overall shop management through linking multiple machines.
