Hydraulic busbar bending machine

About Hydraulic busbar bending machine

A Hydraulic Busbar Bending Machine is a power-driven bending system that uses hydraulic pressure to bend copper, aluminum, or brass busbars quickly and accurately.
It is the most widely used type in switchgear, transformer, and panel board manufacturing, as it combines power, precision, and efficiency while being more affordable than CNC busbar machines.

Key Features

• Hydraulic Power Heavy-duty hydraulic cylinder applies strong and uniform force.

• High Capacity Can bend busbars up to 200 mm wide and 1620 mm thick.

• Adjustable Dies Interchangeable tooling for different shapes (L, U, Z bends).

• Angle Control Digital display or mechanical scale for precise angle setting (0180).

• Durable Design Robust frame to handle continuous production.

• Optional Attachments Some models combine bending with cutting & punching.

Applications

• Electrical Panel & Switchgear Manufacturing

• Transformer Assembly Shops

• Power Distribution Units

• Industrial Panel Fabrication

• Renewable Energy Installations (Solar/Wind Substations)

Advantages

• High Productivity Much faster than manual machines.

• Accurate & Repeatable Controlled bending angles.

• Less Labor Effort Hydraulic power reduces operator strain.

• Handles Large Busbars Suitable for thick and wide busbars.

• Long Life Built for industrial use, continuous duty.

Limitations

• More Expensive than manual benders.

• Less Flexible than CNC (cannot store bending programs).

• Requires Power Source for the hydraulic pump.
