Bronze goes this year to the servo-controlled punching and bending machine RM-NC from Otto Bihler Maschinenfabrik. igus® e-chains® of the type 2480 and
2500 are installed in this innovative
slide positioning unit. The chains
protect the supply lines to the individual
units from soiling and damage
caused by punching waste. They also
guarantee smooth running of the slide
units around the machining centre
and thus minimum set-up and tooling
times.
