RICO PR- 24/7 Manufacturing Cell – Synchronised Press Brake – Combined with a Robot

RICO PR Robotic Press Brake Cell

The RICO PR robotic press brake cell is designed for automated bending applications where a press brake, robot and material handling system are integrated into one production cell.

Automated Bending Cell

• Robotic loading and unloading
• Automated bending sequence
• Component stacking or palletising
• Hydraulic or servo-electric press brake integration
• Suitable for repeat production work
• Configurable cell layout depending on material flow and floor space

Press Brake Integration

• Can be configured with selected RICO CNC press brake models
• Hydraulic or electric press brake options available
• Tonnage and bending length specified to suit the component
• Tooling, backgauge and support systems selected around the bending application
• Robot handling requirements assessed against material size and weight

Production Requirements

• Suitable for repeat parts and batch production
• Helps reduce manual handling
• Supports longer production runs
• Improves process consistency where parts are suitable for robotic handling
• Can be configured for loading, bending, unloading and stacking operations

Safety & Cell Layout

• Guarded robotic cell design
• Light curtains, interlocks and emergency stop systems available
• Cell layout specified around operator access, material loading and finished part removal
• Programming and operator requirements reviewed during specification
