Sichuan  Elevator Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is located in Langzhong, a historical and cultural city in Sichuan Province, China. The company integrates elevator design, research and development, manufacturing, installation, and maintenance, committed to providing safe, reliable, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly building transportation solutions for passengers.

Sichuan  Elevator Manufacturing Co., Ltd. focuses on the installation of elevators in existing buildings. The company continuously innovates and integrates the internet into elevator technology—achieving automatic payment for elevator usage fees via “ETC” smart systems, enabling early detection of elevator malfunctions and timely elimination of safety risks during usage. Additionally, Dsk has standardized the production of external steel structure components, including powder coating processes and on-site bolt connections without the need for external scaffolding, addressing challenges such as long construction periods, significant safety risks, and high labor costs, thus reducing safety hazards.

Dsk has received multiple technical patents and innovation awards in this field and is recognized as a National High-tech Enterprise and a “Specialized, Refined, Characteristic, and Innovative” enterprise in Sichuan Province. Their products are highly favored by clients.

Client Needs

Sichuan Dsk Elevator is a long-term partner of Deratech. In recent years, Deratech has provided the company with multiple CNC machines. In early 2023, due to a sharp increase in orders, the capacity of traditional manual bending could no longer meet production demands. Learning that Deratech had successful cases of robotic bending in related industries, Dsk sought to use Deratech’s robotic bending unit to solve their sheet metal bending capacity issue. Upon receiving Dsk’s request, Deratech’s technical research team designed a multi-purpose gripper fixture to address the challenge of adapting a single gripper to multiple workpieces, and customized a robotic bending unit tailored to the customer’s needs, which was quickly delivered and put into operation.

The robotic bending unit from Deratech has been in use for over a year, significantly reducing the labor intensity of workers, saving labor costs, and increasing production capacity, with zero equipment failure. In October 2024, coinciding with the customer’s product upgrade and capacity expansion, Dsk once again partnered with Deratech and repurchased a robotic bending unit.

Solution

Deratech customized a centering upper and lower loading platform, gravity-centering table, and robot gripper to meet the specific process requirements of Dsk Elevator’s products. The bending machine uses Deratech’s TAM-S series high-precision bending machine, equipped with the latest Switzerland Cycelec CT12 system. This unit can automatically complete the entire process from raw material to finished bent product. Workers only need to supply the sheet material to the loading table and remove the stacked finished products from the unloading table. Additionally, the bending unit is integrated into the client’s production management system for easier production tracking and management.

First purchased Robotic Bending Unit in 2023

Repurchased Robotic Bending Unit in 2024

After quick installation, debugging, training, and acceptance, Deratech’s robotic bending unit was put into production. This purchase of a robotic bending unit by Dsk Elevator is another successful case of Deratech’s robotic bending system in the elevator industry. In recent years, Deratech has increased investment in automation R&D, building a strong, responsive automation team. Deratech not only provides robotic bending units but also offers a wide range of automation products, including laser material handling systems, CNC turret punching machine loading/unloading systems, flexible sheet metal processing lines, intelligent production management software, and more.

Traditional large-tonnage electric press brakes face inherent challenges in screw-driven guidance systems. Typically, these systems rely on slide plate guidance. However, during operation, the side panel’s throat undergoes deformation due to applied force, with greater bending forces leading to more significant deformation. This misalignment between the slide guidance and the screw transmission’s force direction places undue stress on the screw, causing bending deformation and even risking breakage. This not only disrupts the press brake’s normal operation but also poses serious challenges to machining accuracy and equipment stability.

Relying on profound technical expertise and relentless exploration, the Deratech R&D team has ingeniously developed a next-generation large-tonnage electric servo CNC press brake equipped with an independent screw-driven guidance system. This innovative design effectively prevents throat deformation of the side panels from interfering with the screw transmission, acting as a robust defense for the system. During operation, regardless of throat deformation, the screw maintains precise and stable transmission, ensuring high accuracy for every bending operation.

After over a year of rigorous testing and use at customer sites, this press brake has successfully entered mass production, with its reliability and stability thoroughly validated. Recently, an EPP-160/3200 press brake, equipped with a Cybelec VP88 CNC system, was delivered to a customer in Dalian, Liaoning Province. This machine not only features the advanced independent screw-driven guidance technology but also incorporates:

• A dual-axis servo-controlled follow-up support system that accurately supports the sheet during bending, reducing labor intensity and further enhancing machining precision and efficiency.
• A DSP safety light curtain, offering comprehensive safety protection for operators and ensuring a worry-free production process.
• A 6-axis backgauge system, which provides:

Enhanced machining precision: By adjusting the backgauge position to the optimal state for each workpiece, machining precision is significantly improved.

Broader applicability: The 6-axis backgauge accommodates various sheet sizes and shapes, making it suitable for processing complex and high-precision workpieces like electronic enclosures and digital device housings.

Higher production efficiency: Its high precision and flexibility minimize defects caused by misalignment, reduce adjustment times, and boost overall productivity.

Improved stability: Designed for stability, the 6-axis backgauge ensures precise positioning even at high operating speeds, reducing vibration and deviation.

The VP88 system offers an intelligent and user-friendly control interface, enabling operators to easily set bending parameters and execute complex bending processes with precision.

This technological breakthrough by Deratech sets a new benchmark in the field of large-tonnage electric servo CNC press brakes. It exemplifies Deratech’s exceptional R&D capabilities and unwavering commitment to quality and innovation. The promotion of this next-generation press brake will provide customers in the sheet metal processing and related industries with more efficient, precise, and safe production solutions, empowering businesses to stand out in a fiercely competitive market and create greater value.

Looking ahead, Deratech remains committed to innovation, contributing to the industry’s progress and opening new chapters in smart manufacturing. Deratech will continue advancing along the path of technological innovation, making significant contributions to the transformation and growth of the manufacturing sector.
