Morgan Rushworth SBR Powered Bending Rolls
The Morgan Rushworth SBR Powered Bending Rolls are a versatile and robust solution for medium- to heavy-duty sheet metal bending tasks. Built to handle material thicknesses ranging from 1.0mm to 5.0mm, with a maximum bending length of 2050mm, these machines combine precision engineering with exceptional durability. Designed to deliver professional-grade results, the SBR range is a reliable choice for workshops and fabrication facilities requiring consistent performance across a range of applications.
At the heart of the SBR models is a rugged cast iron frame. This heavy-duty construction ensures the machine’s stability and longevity, even under demanding workloads. The durable frame provides a solid foundation for precise and repeatable bending, making the SBR range an excellent investment for businesses seeking equipment that can handle challenging tasks while maintaining accuracy over time.
Advanced Asymmetric Roll Configuration
The asymmetric roll configuration is one of the defining features of the Morgan Rushworth SBR Powered Bending Rolls. This design enhances the machine’s functionality by providing pre-bending capability, which eliminates flat spots at the edges of the material. By pre-bending the sheet metal before rolling, the machine ensures smoother, more uniform bends and a higher-quality finish.
This feature is particularly important for applications requiring precision and consistency, such as the production of structural components, cylindrical shapes, or other curved profiles. The asymmetric configuration also simplifies the bending process, reducing the need for complex manual adjustments and ensuring that even less experienced operators can achieve professional results.
Powered Top Roll Slip Mechanism
Another standout feature of the SBR range is the powered top roll slip mechanism. This allows the top roll to move outward, making it easy to remove finished cylindrical components. This feature is especially beneficial when working with fully enclosed shapes or tightly rolled materials, as it streamlines the extraction process and reduces downtime.
The powered top roll slip mechanism improves overall workflow efficiency by enabling operators to transition between tasks quickly and smoothly. Whether working on large-scale production or smaller, custom projects, this feature enhances productivity and ensures that the machine remains versatile and user-friendly.
