Morgan Rushworth EXL Folding Machine

The Morgan Rushworth EXL range of CNC folders are manufactured with a rotating upper beam with one straight rail and one set of high divided tools that can both be utilised in the same folding program without any manual tool change. This versatile design enables high accuracy, high consistency and high productivity as there is only one initial tool set up to carry out. This is ideal for many folding operations including rectangular panel work with return edges to the four sides. The operator sets the program, folds the two long lengths with the straight rail, the upper beam then automatically rotates and the two ends are then folded with the high divided tools, resulting on the completed panel. Each Axis is powered by servo motors, for increased durability.

The backgauge is integral to the rear support table, which is ideal for the folding of large sheets as the weight of the material is supported, resulting in a traditionally two operator job, being able to be performed with just one. The advanced 2D touch screen CNC, controls all upper beam clamping and rotating, folding beam and back gauge movements, with optional 3D touch screen to further assist the operator. Both controllers provide a view of the folded part, calculates whether the job is possible or not, the developed length and the bending sequence including whether to turn material over or around.
