2. Features of the EL15T CNC System
The EL15T is a controller commonly found on servo CNC bending machines in China, featuring the following characteristics:
- Touchscreen interface operation, supporting graphical programming
Bending steps can be drawn directly on the screen or parameters can be input; the system automatically generates the bending program.
- Supports multiple programming modes + angle compensation
Capable of designing, simulating, and saving programs for complex bending workpieces.
- Multi-language support (depending on manufacturer configuration)
Interface language is selectable (Chinese/English, etc.).
- Manages bending parameter library and historical programs
Facilitates batch production and quick recall.
- Includes safety and error message functions
Such as travel over-limit warnings, etc. (Specific functions depend on the model and interface version).
3. CNC Press Brake Machine 160T 2500 Mechanical Structure and Function Description
1) Main Machine Frame
Integral welded steel structure, treated with high-temperature stress relief → Improves rigidity and long-term stability.
Symmetrical installation of hydraulic cylinders → Ensures slider synchronization and accuracy.
2) Hydraulic System
Servo pump control system → High energy efficiency, low heat generation, and fast response.
Closed-loop control → Improves bending repeatability.
3) Back gauge Mechanism
The back gauge is driven by a ball screw driven by a servo motor, providing fast positioning speed and high accuracy. X and R axes work together to achieve multi-segment bending positioning.
4) V-Axis Compensation
Compensates for deflection during large-format bending through lower die compensation axis reference control. Especially beneficial for improving angle consistency in bending longer plates.
