The 3-metre bending length accommodates larger sheets, making it ideal for various industrial applications, from automotive panels to aerospace components.

With this technology, even force distribution across the 3-metre length is guaranteed. The result is uniform bends, reduced tool wear, and enhanced productivity.

LAMS continuously monitors the folded angle, making real-time adjustments, thus ensuring the perfect bend angle from start to finish.

The machine features an intuitive control interface with 3D visualisation. This allows operators to preview bends, reduce potential errors, and enhance overall productivity.

TRUMPF integrates top-tier safety mechanisms ensuring that the operator is always protected without any compromise on the machine’s operational speed.

The design of the press brake is a testament to durability. It promises consistent performance and minimal maintenance over its operational lifespan.

Advantages of the Trulaser 5030

    • 24KW gives us 3 x processing speeds on certain thicknesses
    • The increased power of the 24KW enables us cut 40mm Mild Steel, 25mm Stainless Steel and 20mm Aluminium,
      whilst retaining high quality edges and tolerances facilitating us to push the boundaries of our customer’s needs
    • Versatile machine dynamics, allowing for minimal part cost even for complex contours
    • 3 x 1.5 m sheet metal processed extremely quickly and economically
    • Cuts a wide range of materials and thicknesses to a superior finish
    • High laser power for the economical processing of thick sheet metal
    • TRUMPF also makes the processing of film-coated sheets possible
    • Smart nozzle automation ensures a high quality of nozzle – even in fully automatic operation
    • The nozzle design reduces nitrogen consumption by up to 70% – for twice the sheet throughput
    • Intricate cutting even in thick mild steel
    • Almost instant changes between materials and thicknesses, minimising downtime

Precision & accuracy

Bending sheet metal enables the transformation of flat sheets into three-dimensional components without compromising the intricacy of the design.

The range of material thickness we can currently fold are between 0.5mm to 12mm. We are always willing to look at designs as we expand our tooling range and capabilities upon request up to 20mm thick.

Please note the fold suitability is entirely dependent on the design, the radius of the bend and length of the part.
