Our best estimate for a cnc press brake in this class — not a quote from Trumpf. Configuration moves it a long way.

Overview

The TruBend Series 8000 is Trumpf's large-format press brake range: bending lengths from 3,230 to 8,050 mm (127.2 - 316.9 in), machine weights from 25,000 to 98,000 kg (55,116 - 216,053 lb), and the models 8230, 8320, 8400, 8600, 8800 and 81000 in surface and underfloor versions.

The detailed rows of the table describe one machine: 2300 kN of press force on a 4420 mm bending length, 3680 mm between the columns, a 620 mm throat and a weight of 25000 kg, in a frame 5318 mm long, 2830 mm wide and 3970 mm high. At the other end, Trumpf says surface-mounted versions are available with up to 400 t and 6.10 m length, or up to 600 t and 4.40 m length. Past those sizes the underfloor versions come into play, and with them a pit in the foundation.

What separates this range from a general-purpose brake is the working space. The stroke is 700 mm (27.6 in) and the usable open height is 880 mm, so deep channels, tall boxes and heavy sections can be bent and lifted out. The trade-off is speed: maximum bending speed is 8 - 10 mm/s (0.3 - 0.4 in/s).

Crowning is CNC-controlled, and Trumpf states that the crowning and the hydraulic upper and lower tool clamps withstand up to 6,000 kN/m. The back gauge has up to 6 CNC-controlled axes, the support brackets carry 300 kg (661 lb), and the control is the T-8000 S Multi-Touch Control. Even the lightest machine here is 25,000 kg, against 14,150 kg (31,195 lb) for a TruBend 5170.

Size Matters	Because a large-format machine should also be able to handle large loads, surface-mounted versions are available with up to 400 t and 6.10 m length or up to 600 t and 4.40 m length.
Strength Counts	Because no task should be too difficult, the crowning and hydraulic upper and lower tool clamps can withstand up to 6,000 kN/m.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Bending lengths up to 8,050 mm (316.9 in)
700 mm (27.6 in) stroke and 880 mm of usable open height for deep and heavy sections
Crowning and hydraulic upper and lower tool clamps rated for up to 6,000 kN/m
Surface-mounted versions with up to 400 t and 6.10 m length or up to 600 t and 4.40 m length
Support brackets with a 300 kg (661 lb) capacity for heavy blanks
620 mm throat depth and 3680 mm between the columns on the 4420 mm machine

Limitations

Maximum bending speed is 8 - 10 mm/s (0.3 - 0.4 in/s)
Machine weights of 25,000 - 98,000 kg (55,116 - 216,053 lb) demand serious foundation work
The 4420 mm machine alone is 5318 mm long and 3970 mm high
Underfloor versions need a pit, which ties the machine to one location

Best For

Long sections and panels up to 8,050 mm (316.9 in) High-force bends in thick plate, from 2300 kN on the 4420 mm machine upward Deep channels and boxes that need 880 mm of open height Heavy blanks supported on brackets rated at 300 kg (661 lb)

Frequently Asked Questions

01 Which models are in the TruBend Series 8000?

Trumpf lists 8230, 8320, 8400, 8600, 8800 and 81000, in surface and underfloor versions. Bending lengths run from 3,230 to 8,050 mm (127.2 - 316.9 in) and machine weights from 25,000 to 98,000 kg (55,116 - 216,053 lb).

02 Does a TruBend Series 8000 need a pit?

Not always. Trumpf states that surface-mounted versions are available with up to 400 t and 6.10 m length, or up to 600 t and 4.40 m length. The model list also names underfloor versions, so for the largest machines plan the foundation with Trumpf early.

03 How much working space does the TruBend Series 8000 have?

The stroke is 700 mm (27.6 in) and the usable open height is 880 mm. On the 4420 mm machine there are 3680 mm between the columns and the throat is 620 mm deep. Those figures are what allow deep profiles to be bent and removed.

04 How fast is the TruBend Series 8000?

Maximum bending speed is 8 - 10 mm/s (0.3 - 0.4 in/s), and the detailed rows give 10 mm/s as the maximum speed of the Y axis in operation. On work of this size the handling of the part usually takes longer than the stroke.

05 What control and back gauge does the TruBend Series 8000 use?

The control and user interface are the T-8000 S Multi-Touch Control. The back gauge has up to 6 CNC-controlled axes. Crowning is CNC-controlled with a capacity of up to 6,000 kN/m, and support brackets rated at 300 kg (661 lb) help with heavy sheets.
