An apparatus and method are disclosed for the automated manufacture of a duct flange profile to make small duct fittings, including a transverse duct flange duct flange profile. The duct flange profile is directed to small part duct fittings with section widths up to about 16 inches in 20 to 26 gauge metal. The apparatus includes a bending head assembly having a drive roller, a pressure roller, an anvil and a bending leaf and a roll form assembly.

A backplate (100) processing method and a backplate (100). The backplate (100) processing method comprises: forming at least one pressing groove on a first plate (10), and when bending the first plate (10) multiple times, bending the first plate (10) on the basis of the pressing groove, wherein a bending direction and the direction of the opening of the pressing groove are located at the same side of the first plate (10).

A heavy-load and high-precision transmission mechanism applicable to sheet-metal bending equipment, which includes pressing arms, connecting rods, hinged supports, pressing arm lifting assemblies and pressing arm lifting driving assemblies. The pressing arms are symmetrically arranged on a top part of a rack. A front end part of each pressing arm facing an upper cross beam is hinged with the cross beam through the connecting rod. An intermediate part of each pressing arm or a rear end part of each pressing arm away from the cross beam is hinged on the rack through the hinged support. The rear end part or the intermediate part of each pressing arm is provided with a set of pressing arm lifting assemblies. Each set of pressing arm lifting assemblies is connected with a set of pressing arm lifting driving assemblies. Each set of pressing arm lifting driving assembly includes an all-electric servo motor.

A mold for a press brake includes an upper mold that is mountable on an upper table and a lower mold mountable on a lower table in a press brake. The upper mold and the lower mold vertically face each other and have respective pressurizing surfaces. The respective pressurizing surfaces are superposed with each other in a pressing direction so as to define a wedge shaped recess between the respective pressurizing surfaces. The respective pressurizing surfaces are configured to pressurize a workpiece positioned between the respective pressurizing surfaces. Further, one of the pressurizing surfaces is formed as a level surface and the other is formed as an inclined surface. The upper mold includes a V-shaped workpiece bending portion that can freely enter into a bending groove provided in the lower mold, and the respective pressurizing surfaces are positioned outside of the bending groove of the lower mold.

The present disclosure generally relates to material processing of a two-dimensional sheet like material into a desired three-dimensional shape object. In more detail, this disclosure presents a system, a computer device and an industrial robot for use in material processing of a two-dimensional sheet like material. The system may comprise one or more computer devices and one or more industrial robots in a distributed computing environment. A two-dimensional sheet like material may be provided to the industrial robot. Also, a digital instruction for the spreading and subsequent folding of the provided two-dimensional sheet by means of the industrial robot may be received from a computer device. The industrial robot may execute a thus received digital instruction to produce, or otherwise create, a desired design of a three-dimensional object from the provided two-dimensional sheet like material.
