Bending Robot Retrofit

A historical breakthrough in press brake robotics was achieved on October 22, 2024, at the Eurobleach exhibition in Germany. The Cybelec team, along with retrofit partners from around the world, unveiled a robotic solution designed for both new and old press brakes—and even for retrofitting older machines while retaining the original controller and robot arm.

Once a bending operator learns to use a Cybelec controller (the most user-friendly on the market), they can be trained to operate the robot in just few hours. The robot is programmed directly through the “VisiTouch” press brake controller, enabling a medium-skilled operator to create a robot program in just a few minutes. This efficiency makes the technology viable even for small production runs. For the first time in history, this technology is accessible to small workshops, offering the flexibility to operate a press brake either manually or via robotic automation.

Robotic Bending Cell Retrofit Solution

Experience a dramatic upgrade in production capabilities. Our solution automates a wide range of tasks, allowing operators to focus on creativity while ensuring consistent, efficient production.

  • User-Friendly: Intuitive, safe, and reliable.
  • Scalable Automation: Can empower small workshops and large factories, driving significant production gains.
  • Plug, Set, and Work: A fully integrated bending cell solution where a single CNC controller manages both the press brake and the robot.
  • Automatic Programming: Program the part using the VisiTouch press brake controller, and the robot’s program is generated automatically—no separate robot programming required.
  • Effortless Operation: Operators can focus on production without worrying about the robot.
  • Real-Time Synchronization: Achieve perfect coordination between the press brake and the robot throughout the bending process.
  • Cost Savings: Enjoy significant reductions in costs while boosting efficiency.

This seamless integration unlocks tremendous potential, offering a cost-effective solution for modern manufacturing.
