Customized retrofitting for your pressbrake

Get the most out of your outdated machine.

The PB 3500 is a multifunctional press brake control that allows the user to create and execute bending programs in a user-friendly environment, accompanied by a detailed 3D graphical simulation for programs created with PartManager.
The 2D-software on the control allows extensive 2D-design (ProfileManager) of profiles that can immediately be executed on the machine.
Thanks to the standard network connection, it is possible to link the PB 3500 to other sheetworking machines, e.g. a punching machine, shear, plasma or laser cutter or other press brakes.
The PB 3500 - with its high speed processor - is able to process data very fast and it can also carry out complicated mathematical calculations.
All these calculations happen automatically, so the operator doesn't need to make any calculations by himself.
