PRESS RELEASE

Schröder Group at the Global Industrie 2025 in Lyon

PowerBend Professional for more efficiency in sheet metal folding

Wessobrunn-Forst (Germany), February 11, 2025 – Nesta Equipment, proven sales partner of the Schröder Group, will be exhibiting a Schröder folding machine with remarkable features at Global Industrie 2025. From March 11 to 14, 2025, a PowerBend Professional UD will be on display at booth 6G63 at Euroexpo Lyon. The machine is very popular with both industrial and craft users. At the trade fair in Lyon, the fully equipped machine will also represent a range of innovative technologies from the Schröder Group.

The Schröder machine exhibited by Nesta Equipment at Global Industrie 2025 folds 2.5 mm thick sheets over a working length of 4040 mm. Thanks to the up-and-down folding beam, counter bends can be made without turning the sheet. This makes operation much easier, especially with large sheets. In combination with the suction plate stop, this also enables partial automation. Once the sheet has been bent, all bends on one side are carried out automatically without any further manual intervention.

Highest precision

Motorized central crowning for the folding beam, motorized folding beam adjustment and bending centre point adjustment as well as high-quality drives ensure precision and maximum repeat accuracy. The 3D graphic control POS 3000, which is operated via a 19" TFT touch screen color display on the swiveling panel, offers several advantages to make your production process more efficient. In addition to the semi-automatic processing of folding programs, the so-called radius step bending function is also impressive. Here, curves are created by the clamping beam pressing the sheet metal in any number of fine steps against an angle created with the folding beam. With a stroke of 540 mm, the clamping beam offers plenty of space. On show at the trade fair: The version of the rotating clamping beam with which you can switch between two tool stations in no time at all.
