Canadian customers tour new Salvagnini press brake facility

The B3.135-3000 ATA press brake was demonstrated at Salvagnini’s new showroom (still under construction) at its headquarters in Sarego, VI, Italy. Luca Ferrarini, project manager, hosted.

Canadian attendees of the BIMU show in Milan had the opportunity on Oct. 10, 2018, to visit Salvagnini headquarters in Sarego and Salvagnini Robotica, the company’s newest press brake plant in Brendola, VI, Italy. The press brake plant is situated just 8 km from the company’s headquarters. With a factory floor space of 4,000 square metres, the new facility is devoted entirely to the manufacture of B3 press brakes. According to the company, the next step in the development of these machines is full robotic automation.

The B3.ATA press brake has been upgraded with numerous automated devices that make it adaptable to different materials and products, while also offering completely autonomous operation, in accordance with the company’s Industry 4.0 concept. The machine’s application extends from stand-alone operation to an integrated part of the Salvagnini FMC FlexCell which, for example, allows configuration with a fibre laser cutting system and panel bender.
