Series 5000

TruBend Series 5000:

Benefits at a glance.

Productive jack of all trades.

The TruBend Series 5000 is TRUMPFs best-selling press brake.

Handles the widest range of parts in its class.

Maximum precision.

Dynamic axis positioning.

ACB: precise angles from the very first part.

Intuitive programming and machine controls.

It features outstanding productivity at every stage of the process,

from programming and tool setup to the actual bending operation.

Built for maximum precision.

The high precision achieved when parts are produced on a
TruBend Series 5000 machine is attributable to its heat-treated
machine frame, industry-proven 4-cylinder drive system, and
CNC crowning.

Optical tool setup and positioning aid.

A line of red LEDs indicates the position at which the bending
tool needs to be installed with millimeter-scale precision.
The optical positioning aid indicates the station where the
next bending operation is required.

Mobile Control enables the operator to control machine functions remotely, without
having to move from place to place.

Guaranteed precision with ACB.

Dynamic positioning with multi-axis back gauges.

A variety of back gauge systems are available to suit different part geometries
and levels of complexity. In the standard version, TruBend Series 5000 machines are
equipped with a 2-axis back gauge. This can be upgraded to 4 or 5 axes as an
option. There is even a 6-axis version, in which each back gauge finger can be set
independently. This makes the 6-axis back gauge the ultimate choice for flexible
manufacturing.

Dynamic back gauges.

Intuitive programming and machine controls.

TRUMPFs Advanced Specialized Control, or TASC 6000, enables you to operate the
machine using a mouse, keyboard or touch screen, as desired. Representing the latest
generation in control systems, the interactive user interface simplifies programming
and guides the operator throughout the process with intuitive, safe instructions. It
only takes a few steps to input the numerical or CAD data for the part and generate
the corresponding program. A 3D animated display allows the bending process to
be monitored in-line.

a particularly cost-effective solution for bending small- and
medium-sized parts.

Certified ergonomic quality.

Human factor engineering played a significant role in the conceptual
design of the TruBend Series 7000. As a result, the machines are
a pleasure to use, operators can work quickly and efficiently, and
part quality is consistently high. It is the first press brake to be
awarded a quality certificate specifically for its ergonomic design.
The integrated bending line laser ensures spot-on p

Outstanding productivity.
The gearless, direct-drive motor delivers high torque even when rotating at low
speed the optimum requirements for achieving a high press force coupled with a
high throughput rate. This extremely energy-efficient electric motor helps you to
reduce energy costs.

Maximized, multi-axis dynamics.

The user-friendly touch screen with intuitive menus

can be tilted to avoid reflections.

The time required to bend small parts depends only partly on the operating speed of the
ram. An even more important factor is the acceleration of the backgauges. To enable
them to be positioned more rapidly, they are built to a special design using a lightweight,
stable carbon-fiber material. The machine can operate much faster because the mass it
has to move is significantly lower. The system is available with either 3 or 6 axes.

Productive all-purpose bending cell.

TruBend Cell 5000 enables you to process parts cost-efficiently
and achieve high productivity. The BendMaster relieves the operator
of many onerous tasks, especially when processing large and
heavy workpieces weighing up to 220 lbs. The bulk of the work
is handled by the machine working around the clock, seven days
a week, if necessary. You can always rely on our automated
bending solutions to produce parts of consistently high quality.

Innovative high-speed bending cell.

Ideally suited for the automatic bending of small parts, the
TruBend Cell 7000 is the compact solution for fabricators looking
to increase their productivity. The innovative bending units are
a unique feature of the machine, with their lightweight backgauges
and modern drive concept. All in all, the TruBend Cell 7000
is the fastest bending cell in its class.

ToolShuttle

The right tool always at hand.

The ToolShuttle quickly and ergonomically sets up your tools and accommodates 525 linear feet of bending tools. The compact tool
storage can directly supply up to two bending machines, with the transfer carriage transporting the tools to the machines.
The tools are stored in drawers and automatically delivered. In the process the tools are delivered in setup position and at the right
height, so the operator is ideally assisted. No time is lost looking for and transporting tools, minimizing set up time. With the ToolShuttle
every tool setup operation is reduced by 60%.
