R4h Next Gen - Thick material rolling without compromise

R4 Next Gen: a new standard to support your industrial challenges and evolution 4-roll hydraulic bending machines - Capacity: 8 - 50 mm - Useful length: 1000 - 5000 mm Created in the 1980s alongside similar types of hydraulic machine, the R4h 4-roll sheet bending machine was developed especially to handle thick materials, always keeping the plate clamped between two rollers. Today it’s the most popular machine on the market, largely because others have been considerably simplified, often to create a low-cost machine with just one or two powered rollers, alignment control by torsion bar, planetary guide system, etc. We didn’t follow that trend because it diminished the performance of those machines. That’s why the R4h sheet bending machine is still a 4-roll machine that makes no compromises: four powered rollers with linear guide system for top performance (prebending, power, etc.) and agility in all situations. We have equipped it with an innovative clamp control technology to limit the effects of lamination of the plate (pressure and position control). Our four-roller technology is especially recommended for: - thick materials (above 6 mm) - mass-produced parts - tanks with multiple radii - integration into a global process: loading table, evacuation, welding, etc. It is not recommended for use on very thin sheets or for cone rolling; the R3 performs well for those purposes.
