ROPER WHITNEY AUTOBRAKE 2000

The future of Machine Control and Communications Technology
Offered in a range of models from 4-feet to 13-feet, and capacities through 1/4" steel, the Autobrake 2000 is designed to meet the needs of jobs shops, metal roofing contractors, and architectural sheet metal fabricators. These CNC metal folding systems incorporate automatic gauging, clamping, and pivot bending for versatile, efficient part production. Bending and gauge positioning accuracy allow a wide range of parts to be fabricated with repeat precision.

Some of the A2000's features are:

  • Storage for 255 programs, with 99 operations per program.
  • Programmable hemming pressure, allowing both open and closed hems in the same program.
  • Automatic overload protection.
  • RS232 port standard for uploading and downloading of programs.
DUAL-CLAMPING SYSTEM: Clamping pressure is easily programmed at the control without manual adjustments allowing soft and painted material to be held without marring.

COMPUTER CONTROLLED: Flexible, powerful, and easy to use makes the Orion control system a must have for any sheet metal fabricator. This all new Windows® based controller was specifically designed for the Autobrake 2000 and uses a touch-based graphical user interface for quick editing and creation of part programs. With minimal training, operators can quickly learn to dynamically generate part drawings complete with up-to-date bend angles and lines, material handling instructions, plus hemming and radius macros. An internal modem allows our technicians to troubleshoot your Orion Control using a phone line.

PATENTED KOMBI BEAM: Found only on the Roper Whitney Autobrake, this patented upper beam allows both straight full length bending and box work without changing tools. The box tooling is mounted on the reverse side of the beam and rotated into position in a fraction of the time required with other systems. Angles, radius bends, and hems can all be be formed without any additional tool setup during part production.

CNC BACKGAUGE: Multiple sets of steps are provided for fast accurate positioning of the work material without pre-measuring or scribing of the sheet. Low profile spring stops in the forward position allow gauging between the clamping jaws for short flanges without marking soft materials.
