Tool Mate

Highly accurate and lightning fast tool changes

The Tool Mate can be added to several of the SafanDarley press brakes to automate the tool loading for that machine. The tool storage capabilities of 32, 52, or 60 meters of tooling makes this the biggest tool storage available. It is a perfect solution for the client that caters to high mix, low volume orders with complex tool set ups. A unique option is the SafanDarley Tool Mate Twin solution. This allows you to setup your tools from a single storage compartment into two press brakes doubling the effectiveness of your investment.

The Tool Mate ensures the automatic placement of the tools in the machine and thus provides extra efficiency and productivity. Whilst the Tool Mate changes tools, other work can be performed. This saves considerable time, especially for small batches. The continuous safety control in the safety zone allows the changer to change the tools at very high speed. For long tool setups, part tools with lengths up to 515 mm can be used.

With a new job, tools are changed automatically, the intelligent software makes only the necessary changes and tools from the previous tool set-up are reused. This results in shorter changeover times and improved productivity.

ASC-Control

Automated Solutions Cell-Control is SafanDarley’s software platform for the automated cell. ASC-Control is a very user-friendly and flexible management platform that was born out of the need to allow even employees with little experience to operate automated machines. Fully developed and supported by our in-house software team. The modular structure of the software makes it easy to implement customer-specific requirements and adapt the layout of the cell.

The ASC-Control constantly communicates with the robot and press brake to monitor the status of the entire cell. It tracks every item in the cell and knows exactly where it is located.
