The Stierli bending machine impresses with its countless advantages:
Discover the numerous applications of Stierli straightening and bending machine for yourself
- Larger and wider working table
The working area has generous dimensions, which means that larger bending parts can be positioned securely.
- Long cylinder stroke with large insertion width
When it comes to aligning welded structures or using special tools, having sufficiently large stroke and insertion width is a big advantage.
- Robust machine design
The rigid, robust design of the machine guarantees precise working with excellent long-term accuracy.
- High repeat accuracy
The combination of a very rigid machine design, precise hydraulics and the use of high-quality control components results in high repeat accuracy.
- Very strong cylinder guiding system
The very strong cylinder design means that open guides are not required. The entirely enclosed guide system offers many advantages that help to maintain a long service life and long-term accuracy:
- The guide system is protected from wear (in contrast to open guides)
- No additional lubrication required, no need for servicing.
- Our guide concept allows the working table to be completely enclosed (see next point)
- Precise, enclosed working table
The mechanically finished machine table provides a flat, clean surface. It is completely enclosed and does not require any openings for additional guides. As a result, small bending parts do not become jammed and scale cannot enter the guide system.
- Movable with pallet lift truck or crane
If necessary, the Stierli bending machine can be moved easily to wherever it is required.
- Little space required
The compact design means that the Stierli bending machine can be used anywhere in the workshop.
- Compact, flexible and robust quality tools
Stierli-Bieger offers tools which, on the one hand, allow fine machining with small leg lengths, small U, L or Z bending dimensions. On the other hand, heavy-duty, strong bending tools are available for heavy bending machining.
- Quick-change tool system
Changing tools takes a matter of seconds.
- Universal application
Numerous tools are available, offering an enormous production potential.
- High bending output (up to 600 bends/hour)
In many cases, a Stierli bending machine is more cost-effective
- Technical advantages and cost benefits over vertical press brakes.
The Stierli bending machine often has its nose ahead. More cost-effective, faster and more compact production is just one of the many arguments in favour of a Stierli bending machine. Find out more here.
- Cost-effective purchase in terms of uses and service life
The Stierli bending machine is mainly used as a production machine with outstanding cost effectiveness. The long service life of a Stierli bending machine increases the cost effectiveness of this investment further.
However, there are also some companies that use the Stierli bending machine to make prototypes or small series, or for occasional uses. Such companies appreciate the constant availability of the Stierli bending and straightening machine, as they do not have to depend on external production service providers and thus have greater flexibility, enabling them to offer services and supply products more quickly.
- Easy loading of the workpieces
The open design with large insertion width allows easy loading and parts handling. For large, heavy or long-sided parts, crane loading is an option.
- User-friendly control.
Our controls are designed in such a way that the operator can learn how to use them very quickly.
The manual control system is very popular and has been tried and tested in deployment over decades. The control system can be picked up in just a few minutes. The manual control system allows very precise working with its fine stroke setting.
The modern, powerful CNC control system has a clearly designed multiple line display. Graphical symbols support and facilitate the operating process.
