Application inputs
Choose a WAD configuration for your parts
Part geometry and tooling determine machine capacity; tonnage is only one input.
02
Bend program and tooling
Share drawings, angle and radius targets, bend sequence, die opening, tooling interface, clamping method and crowning requirement.
03
Control and handling
Define controller preference, required axes, batch and changeover pattern, front support, follower or robot interfaces and operator workflow.
04
Acceptance and site
Define the sample-part checks, measurement method, electrical supply, installation limits and destination safety requirements.

Inside the WAD bending system
CNC programming, independent Y1/Y2 ram control and backgauge positioning work together to form the part. Compare the controller, tooling and compensation around your bend sequence.
CNC programming
01
Prepare the complete bend sequence
The CNC stores bend sequences and coordinates ram and backgauge positions. The 4+1-axis example is one configuration; programming functions depend on the controller.
Choose Delem DA-53T, DA-58T, DA-66T or DA-69T, with ESA S640 optional. Demonstrate the programming, language, transfer and interface functions required for your work.
Y1/Y2 ram control
02
Keep both ram ends in step
Independent position feedback monitors the left and right cylinders. The control system adjusts hydraulic motion against the programmed ram position throughout the bending stroke.
This controls ram movement; the finished angle also depends on material, tooling and compensation. Select force, stroke and motion speeds from the exact WAD model.
Backgauge and part references
03
Position the next flange
The backgauge establishes the reference for each bend. X controls the forward and backward position; R adjusts height. Finger placement and extra axes support different part geometries.
Check short flanges, return bends and tool clearance on your drawings. X/R travel and speed are model-specific; additional axes and fingers are configured for the job.
Tooling and clamping
Tooling
Make room for the intended shape
The punch profile and die opening define the forming space available to the part.
Match tool geometry and load capacity to the drawing and bend sequence.
Clamping
Hold and change the tool set
The clamping interface holds the tooling at its working reference and determines the changeover method.
Check tool compatibility. Quick and pneumatic clamping are selectable configurations.
Crowning and bend consistency
05
Manage deflection along the bend
Crowning compensates for load-related deflection along the working length. It works with ram control and tooling to support a consistent bend across the part.
Review the compensation arrangement for the chosen length and load. Check angle and straightness at agreed positions on a representative long bend.
Part trial and operator workflow
Part trial
Evaluate the finished bend
Run a representative part through programming, positioning and bending to assess the result.
Agree material, drawing and inspection points for angle, dimensions and straightness.
Operator workflow
Review support and repositioning
Include tool changes and the way the operator supports and turns the work through the bend sequence.
Specify light guards, perimeter protection, foot controls and any automation interface for that workflow.
Application planning
Test the Proposed Machine With a Representative Part
The examples below show different bend and access conditions. Your material, thickness, tolerances, tooling and cycle target define the final sample test.
Part access
Tray Form With Slots and Return Flanges
Check flange access, tooling clearance, bend order and how the part will be supported between operations.
Repeat production
Repeated Multi-Bend Brackets
Use the batch pattern to discuss program recall, backgauge references, handling and the acceptance check used between parts.
Geometry and access
Perforated Enclosure Bracket
Use the drawing to check hole-to-bend relationships, part rotation, side-flange interference and the final inspection datum.
Tooling clearance
Open Tray With Return Flanges
Check punch reach, die opening, return-flange clearance and whether the sequence requires a support or follower.
