GENERAL DESIGN DESCRIPTION

You have made a practical choice in purchasing the RDB-500 Hydraulic Bending Machine. It
has been carefully built of high quality materials and designed to give many years of efficient
service. The simplicity of design and minimum effort required to operate the machine contributes
towards meeting schedules and producing greater profits.
The RDB-500 is an electric powered hydraulically operated "Rotary Draw" bending machine. To
bend material, a bending die and counter die are required. The material is hooked by the
bending dies' hook arm and is powerfully rotated in the clockwise direction. As the bending die
rotates, the counter die arm also rotates about the same axis, forcing the material to conform to
the radius and shape of the bending die.
The RDB-500 Bending Machine you have purchased is built of solid steel ensuring maximum
rigidity. Tongue and groove design with grade 8 bolts throughout provides very high rigidity and
stability.
Throughout this manual are listed various safety-related descriptions for attention. These
matters for attention contain the essential information to the operators while operating, and
maintaining. Failure to follow these instructions may result in great damage to the machine or
injury to the operator.
Function
Will operate the machine in the cw direction
Will operate the machine in the ccw direction
For turning power on/off to the bender
For programming bend angle and displaying the
bend angle position.
Supply the bending force to rotate the forming die.
For pivoting counter die away from bend die to
remove material quickly.
For supporting and driving the forming die.
For greasing main spindle bearing
Recording the spindle rotation and sending that
information back to the controller to display the bend
angle and stop bending at the programmed angle.
