the automatic tool changer, which comes standard on the E-Brake iTCThe E-Brake iTC gives operators everything they like about the E-Brake 150T 3100 and 200T 4100, but with one important addition—the automatic tool changer. The automatic tool changer is able to automatically set up the tools in your press brake, increasing efficiency without the need to take up valuable extra space on your floor.

Automatic Tool Changer

SafanDarley’s automatic tool changer is engineered so that it can be programmed rapidly and accurately. The automatic tool changer does not need to be programmed separately. It compiles its data from generated press brake programs, which can be set up via features like Batch and Queue, though you can also give as-needed commands throughout (like clearing the machine).

The smart magazine mounted on the rear of the E-Brake iTC is constantly at the ready to clear tools. To set up a new batch of tools, you can either do so manually or choose the TIPS option (one of the available optional add-ons), which allows the machine’s robot to identify and place the correct tools.

These capabilities are what work together to make the E-Brake iTC so efficient.

On the E-Brake iTC, the screen measures 17” and runs Microsoft software, which was developed based on Microsoft’s .NET Framework.
