PBT15: Compact Precision for Versatile Bending Applications
In the world of precision bending, manufacturers demand machines that offer flexibility, performance, and cost efficiency without compromising on quality. The PBT15 delivers on all these fronts. Positioned strategically between the ARKUS12 and PBT25 models, this latest addition to our product line features a compact design, versatile configuration options, and an outstanding price-performance ratio, making it the ideal solution for a wide range of bending applications.
Compact Design, Maximum Flexibility
Engineered to save space without sacrificing capability, the PBT15 is configurable with D40 or D65 mm shaft diameters, offering unmatched flexibility for bending everything from tight radii to larger, more substantial profiles. With an adjustable front shaft distance from 800 mm to 110 mm, seamless transitions and the smallest possible radii can be achieved effortlessly—without the need for additional equipment.
Swiss Quality Performance
Built on the principles of Swiss engineering, the PBT15 combines powerful, clean, and quiet electric motors with high-performance controls, delivering speeds of up to 20 rpm. Each of the three shafts is individually driven and supported, ensuring maximum stability, precision, and reliability even under demanding workloads.
Designed for Operator Safety and Comfort
User experience is at the core of the PBT15’s design. Features such as an LED signal light for real-time status visualization, ergonomic working conditions, and a bending direction away from the operator enhance safety and ease of use. For additional protection, an optional safety laser scanner is available, ensuring compliance with the highest safety standards.
Outstanding Price-to-Performance Ratio
The PBT15 strikes the perfect balance between performance and affordability. Its low maintenance costs, robust construction, and efficient hydraulic system make it a cost-effective solution for businesses seeking to maximize productivity while minimizing operational expenses.
