The challenge
A.G.M. was looking for a press brake that would meet three fundamental requirements:
- High and consistent precision, even with different materials and lengths
- Operational flexibility, thanks to an advanced backgauge and a customisable configuration
- Reduced energy consumption and greater efficiency in production cycles
- Digital integration, with software and technology in line with Industry 4.0
What was needed, therefore, was a machine capable of guaranteeing ‘premium’ performance, minimising downtime and improving the quality of the parts produced.
The Gasparini solution
To fully meet their needs, Gasparini created a custom-configured XP225/4000 with a complete package of technologies to increase performance, reliability and ease of use:
- E-Reflex intelligent system – automatic deformation compensation
- Gasparini adaptive crowning – constant precision throughout the entire bend
- 5-axis backgauge (X-R-Z1-Z2-X6) – maximum flexibility and positioning speed
- 400 mm stroke, 500 mm recess, 600 mm clearance – for handling more complex and voluminous pieces
- AirSlide pneumatic clamping and lower clamping – fast and operational tool change
- ECO package – energy consumption reduction of up to 30%
- Syner-G Remote Control – ergonomics and immediate control
- DSP-AP laser safety – maximum protection for operator and process
- Delem DA-69S + Profile-S 3D CNC – advanced programming and simulation
- Industry 4.0 – connected machine, integrable into digital business processes
The results
Thanks to the new custom-configured XP225/4000, A.G.M. has achieved:
Greater precision in every process
E-Reflex and adaptive crowning maintain consistent quality even on long bends and variable materials.
Higher speed and productivity
The 5-axis register and pneumatic clamping drastically reduce setup times.
Greater flexibility in part handling
The extended stroke, recess and bench-crossbar clearance optimise part handling.
Reduced consumption
The ECO package guarantees energy efficiency without sacrificing performance.
Seamless digital integration
Thanks to Delem DA-69S, Profile-S and the Industry 4.0 package, the machine communicates with company systems and allows advanced offline programming.
Conclusions
The project developed for A.G.M. SRL demonstrates how a Gasparini press brake, suitably configured, can:
- adapt precisely to the customer’s process
- improve quality and precision
- reduce setup times and consumption
- offer a real competitive advantage in the long term
A truly tailor-made solution, designed to support the company’s growth and ensure consistent performance over the years.
