Technical recommendations

LEANTOOL Radial
R60 on RM-NC / R100 on GRM-NC

  • Strip dimensions (max.): approx. 2mm × 40mm / 2mm × 60mm
  • Wire diameters (max.): approx. 4mm / 6mm
  • Main working area diameter: 60mm (RM-NC) / 100mm (GRM-NC)
    If the bends are within the main working area, the formed part can generally be mapped with the modular tool kit.
  • Up to approx. 8 bends for the bending part
    (for >8 bends the linear principle is recommended)

 

LEANTOOL Linear
L250 on GRM-NC, LM machines and BIMERIC Modular

  • Strip thickness: from approx. 0.3mm up to approx. 2mm
  • Strip width: max. 80mm
  • Module length: 250mm
