Panel Bender and Press Brake for Turkish Door Manufacturer

A door manufacturer in Turkey selected a STON CNC Panel Bender and Press Brake для операций по гибке листового металла.

The project combines two types of bending equipment within the customer’s production facility. The CNC panel bender is designed for repeated multi-edge forming of sheet metal panels, while the press brake provides general-purpose bending flexibility for different workpiece sizes, materials and forming requirements.

Sheet Metal Bending Requirements in Door Manufacturing

Metal door production involves sheet metal panels and structural components with different bending profiles. According to STON’s door-industry solution, door manufacturing may involve long panels, multi-step edge profiles and controlled angular forming.

Common door components may require:

• Straight-edge bending
• Return flange forming
• Multi-angle bending
• Offset bending
• Dead-edge folding
• Doorframe forming
• Sealing-edge forming
• Long workpiece bending

These are general applications identified by STON for metal door manufacturing. The specific workpieces processed by the Turkish customer were not provided.

Because different door components can have different geometries, one type of bending machine may not cover every production requirement in the same way. The selected combination of a panel bender and press brake gives the manufacturer access to two complementary sheet metal forming methods.

The STON Solution

STON supplied the Turkish door manufacturer with:

• One CNC Panel Bender
• One Press Brake

Эти Панелегибочный станок с ЧПУ is intended for automated multi-edge panel forming. The press brake is designed for flexible bending with upper and lower tooling.

The supplied project information does not state how the customer allocates workpieces between the two machines. Therefore, this case study does not claim that a specific door component is processed on either machine.

Based on STON’s published product information, the equipment can generally be evaluated as follows:

CNC Panel Bender for Door Panel Forming

STON identifies the CNC panel bender as recommended equipment for metal door manufacturing. It is designed to process multi-angle panel profiles through programmed CNC operation.

Multi-edge bending

A door panel may require several bends along different edges. The panel bender can perform multiple bending steps according to a programmed sequence.

Positive and negative bending

STON panel benders support positive and negative bends. This capability allows different edge directions to be formed without relying on the same manual handling sequence used in conventional multi-step bending.

Reduced manual repositioning

The machine controls workpiece positioning during the bending process. This reduces repeated manual rotation and repositioning between individual bends.

Programmed operation

Once the workpiece and bending program have been correctly prepared, the equipment performs the specified sequence under CNC control. This is suitable for recurring door panel designs.

Automation compatibility

STON panel benders can be connected with robotic, gantry or truss-type loading and unloading systems. No automatic handling system was included in the supplied information for this Turkish project, so it should only be treated as an optional expansion capability.

Press Brake for Flexible Door Component Bending

STON’s press brake range includes:

• Электрогидравлический листогибочный пресс с ЧПУ
• Полностью электрический станок с ЧПУ для гибки листового металла

A листогибочный пресс bends sheet metal between matched upper and lower tools. It is suitable for general sheet metal forming and can accommodate different workpiece geometries through the appropriate tooling and machine configuration.

Published Panel Bender Range

STON’s CNC panel bender portfolio includes press-arm and suction-cup feeding configurations.

Door Components Relevant to the Equipment

Within a general metal door manufacturing environment, panel benders and press brakes may be evaluated for components such as:

• Door face panels
• Door leaf components
• Doorframes
• Reinforcement parts
• Side profiles
• Return flanges
• Sealing-edge profiles
• Internal sheet metal structures

This list describes potential applications presented by the equipment categories.

Conclusion

This Turkish door-manufacturing project combines a STON CNC Panel Bender and Press Brake within one sheet metal production facility.

The panel bender provides programmed multi-edge forming for recurring panel-type workpieces. The press brake provides flexible, tool-based bending for varied door components and forming requirements.

Together, the two equipment categories give the customer access to complementary bending processes. Because the available project information only confirms the country, industry and equipment combination, no unverified machine model, production result or customer-specific performance claim has been included.
