Press Brake Upgrade

Bending angle measurement

IRIS Plus and LaserCheck connect measurement to correction. Select from material variation, tooling, bend geometry, sensor access and controller feedback.

Tooling, geometry, feedback and closed-loop method

Information Needed

Start with the variation you need to control

Describe material, thickness, grain, tooling, bend geometry, springback, tolerance and observed angle variation.

01 / VARIATION

Variation

Record what changes the angle and when it appears.

02 / ACCESS

Measurement access

List sensor view, flange geometry, tool restrictions and machine interfaces.

03 / LOOP

Correction loop

Define result transfer, correction method and finished-angle check.

Measurement options

Compare measurement principles and feedback

Compare where the sensor sees the bend, when the controller receives an angle and how the result is checked on the finished part.

OPTION 01

IRIS Plus angle measurement

IRIS Plus uses optical imaging near the upper tooling. With the supported CNC interface, the image-processing system can track the bend and measure the final angle. Check the tool profile, line of sight and the control functions supplied.

LaserCheck Angle Measurement

OPTION 02

LaserCheck angle measurement

LaserCheck uses laser triangulation from sensors on opposite sides of the sheet near the die. The controller uses both sheet-surface measurements to calculate the angle. Confirm sensor positions, die clearance and the selected correction interface.

TRIAL

Calibration and representative test bends

Use the intended punch, die, material and flange geometry. Verify sensor alignment, compare the reported angle with an independent measurement after unloading, and record any correction against the agreed tolerance.

Before You Order

Build a measurement-and-correction plan

Measurement improves the process only when the result drives a defined correction and acceptance check.

  • Material, thickness, geometry and tooling
  • Sensor view, range and access limits
  • Controller and correction interface
  • Representative bends, target angle and verification method

Upgrade path

Plan Your Machine Upgrade

Identify the production problem, check compatibility, then agree installation and acceptance.

  1. STEP 01

    Document the current state

    Record machine, controller, interfaces, photos, workflow and the production issue to solve.

  2. STEP 02

    Define the requirement

    Connect workpieces, process, operator tasks, output and site conditions to the upgrade.

  3. STEP 03

    Confirm compatibility

    Review mechanical, electrical, control, software, safety and service interfaces.

  4. STEP 04

    Agree the scope

    Define installation, tests, acceptance, documentation, training and support responsibilities.

Before You Contact ADH

Angle measurement questions

Compatibility depends on machine, controller, tooling, part geometry, material and application.

Can this angle measurement system be used on an existing machine?

Check tooling, part access, controller interface, correction workflow and measurement range.

What information should I send?

Send machine, controller, tooling, materials, representative parts, target angles and current variation.

What determines compatibility?

Compare controller, tooling, sensor position, part access, bend sequence and accuracy check.

What should the quotation clarify?

Specify the measurement system, hardware, software, controller integration, calibration, tests and training.
