Product catalog summary

Overview
The WAFIOS B Series CNC Single-Head Coiling and Bending Machines are designed for producing two- and three-dimensional wire parts. These machines are known for their versatility, flexibility, and profitability, offering a trend-setting machine concept with high process safety and compatibility with predecessor tools.

Design Features
The machines feature a robust feed unit with a combination roller straightener and a fast, CNC-controlled cutting unit. The versatile bending head allows for large bending space and flexible applications with infinitely rotating bending and mandrel axes. The machines are equipped with a hand-held operating device and a fast, PC-based CNC control system.

Operation
The user-friendly WAFIOS WPS 3 interface allows for plain-text programming of lengths, angles, or coordinates, linking all machine components. The iQbend software option optimizes CNC program sequences based on the geometry of the bent part, reducing setup times and costs per unit.

Technical Specifications
The B3 model operates with wire diameters ranging from 2.0 to 6.5 mm, while the B5 model handles 4.0 to 10.0 mm. Both models feature infinite rotary angles for mandrel and bending axes, a fixed bend-back clearance of +30°, and a maximum feed speed of 120 m/min. The B3 model offers a bending torque of approximately 250 Nm, whereas the B5 model provides around 1050 Nm.

Reliability and Quality
WAFIOS is renowned for its high-quality standards, safety, and German technical innovation. The machines undergo strict quality controls and are supported by a global service network, ensuring high availability and a long service life, which contributes to cost savings and shorter amortization times.

Conclusion
The WAFIOS B Series machines are a reliable investment for producing complex wire parts, offering advanced features, user-friendly operation, and high efficiency.
