Automated bending of long profiles
The XXL long folding center automatically inserts, squares, positions to the bend line, and folds the flanges up or down. No more rotation. No more complicated handling. No more second or third operator. The XXL-Center automatically produces precision long parts in record time.
XXL-Center Highlights
- Machine for roof and wall profiles
- Automatic inserting and positioning of blanks
- Bending up and down
- Scratch-free bending of sensitive materials
- Large free spaces for maximum part design flexibility
- Automatic bending sequences
- Automatic 1-click part programming
- High productivity
- Bending sequence
- Blank loading with unique comfort
It has never been that easy loading a blank into a long folder. The stainless-steel loading table automatically move out of the machine just as far that the operator can easily load the cut part.
- Easy material loading
- Fatigue-free and fast operation
- One operator for medium-size blanks
- High productivity

- Auto blank squaring!
- The squaring fingers pop-up from the work surface and automatically 80 mm square the cut blank.
- Automatic positioning and gauging of blanks
- Heigh squaring fingers for uneven blanks
- Secured bending accuracy without operator intervention
Accurate positioning - After the blank is squared the XXL-Centers grippers take over the workpiece. They hold and automatically position the part for each bend. The grippers can clamp on straight Material but can also clamp on a closed hem. Additional higher grippers can clamp over a pre-bent flange.
- Normal grippers are sufficient for almost all jobs
- High grippers can clamp over 25 mm flanges
- They come in addition to normal grippers
- Software automatically selects the grippers
Bending up and down
Up and down folding eliminates a need to rotate the parts. Short cycle times, precision flange dimensions and angles, high levels of productivity and low costs per part guarantee a quick payback of the investment.
- No part flipping required
- Little swivel movement of folding beams
- Fast bending sequences
- High productivity, short payback period
CutModule for XXL-Center- If the CutModul is selected, the software shows where the operator has to insert the material strip. The XXL-Center pulls the metal workpiece into the machine, squares and positions it to dimension. The upper beam clamps the Material, and the cutting unit starts from its right home position and cuts the workpiece to the requested dimension.
- Cuts blanks to the exact width
- CutModule can be used up to 1.5 mm mild steel material
- Cutting gap and overlapping of cutting wheels adjustable
Bending complex parts - RAS has designed XXL-Center with maximum free space in Front of the folding beams and has also patented this aspect. The extremely large free area of 300 degrees creates room for the most complex part geometries.
- Unlimited part design flexibility
- Folding beam already inside the part for the next bend
Perfect material surfaces
- The tools roll away with the blank and fold them without scratching pre-painted materials.
- Scratch-free bending of sensitive materials
- No build-up of zinc abrasion
- No tool wear
Automatic part programming
- The operator draws the profile of the touch monitor or in the office using the Office software. The Bendex software automatically programs the part and suggests the optimum bending strategy. The software simulates the entire program cycle in either a 2D or 3D view.
- Dimensions and angles clearly visible even on complex profiles
- Automatic programming of the bending sequence with a single mouse-click
- No bending expertise required
- Software suggests the best bending strategy with a 5-star ranking
- 2D or 3D bending sequence simulation
- Visualizing possible collisions
- With Office-Software: Programming and feasibility study in the office
