Previously, anyone wishing to produce bevelled cutting edges on the contours of components had to manually introduce these so-called chamfers into the component in an additional work step using a milling machine, a grinding machine or an angle grinder. This process turns out to be not only labour-intensive, but also very time-consuming. But generating chamfers automatically? Previously, this was only possible with more complex machines equipped with a special 3D cutting head.
TRUMPF EdgeLine Bevel
Preparing components for welding? Until now, this was only possible by hand. With the TRUMPF EdgeLine Bevel, those days are over! On this page, find out how you can automatically insert chamfers up to 45 and countersinks of various sizes, as well as round off sheet metals with sharp edges. In addition to eliminating manual work steps, this has many other advantages. Here you can read and see exactly which components EdgeLine Bevel is particularly suited for!
Welding preparation: Conventional versus innovative
At a glance: The advantages of EdgeLine Bevel
As a supplier for the entire "sheet metal process chain", TRUMPF offers EdgeLine Bevel to help make production even more efficient for users. For example, the automatic weld edge preparation during cutting eliminates many manual process steps.
Since the chamfers are automatically generated directly on laser cutting machines, there is significantly greater freedom of contour and of machining. In addition to chamfers, EdgeLine Bevel also automatically generates countersinks for screw connections.
Due to the very fast and simple programming, the EdgeLine Bevel function is even suitable for companies that only occasionally produce components with chamfers and countersinks.
Thanks to the automatic welding edge preparation and the "round off edges" option, many work steps that otherwise had to be carried out by hand are no longer necessary. This reduces the risk of errors in production and improves component quality.
