Overview

The Ursviken Optima 6 is a high-performance CNC press brake engineered for precision sheet metal forming in demanding industrial environments. Built in Sweden with a heritage of heavy-duty fabrication machinery, the Optima 6 delivers synchronised hydraulic bending force across its full working length, making it well suited for structural parts, enclosures, and complex formed components. The machine's robust welded steel frame minimises deflection under load, a critical factor when holding tight angle tolerances on long bends.

The Optima 6 series pairs a modern multi-axis back gauge with Ursviken's own XPERT or compatible CNC control, giving operators intuitive 3D bend simulation and automatic tool setup calculation. The control's offline programming capability reduces machine downtime between jobs, while the real-time angle correction system compensates for material springback without manual trial bends. Multiple crowning options are available to counteract beam deflection on longer beds.

Built to handle a wide tonnage range within the series, the Optima 6 is offered in configurations spanning from workshop-scale machines to large-format fabricators requiring several metres of working length and substantial bending force. Servo-controlled back gauge axes provide rapid, repeatable positioning with sub-millimetre accuracy, supporting high-mix production runs.

Ursviken's Scandinavian manufacturing philosophy emphasises longevity and minimal maintenance intervals. The Optima 6 uses premium hydraulic components, hardened and ground side frames, and precision-ground beam guides to ensure consistent performance over decades of production service. European CE certification and robust safety guarding systems meet current workplace safety standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What control systems are compatible with the Ursviken Optima 6?

The Optima 6 is typically supplied with the Ursviken XPERT control, which offers 3D bend simulation and automatic tool selection. Compatible third-party controls including Delem DA-series and Cybelec units can also be specified depending on customer preference or existing fleet standardisation.

02 Does the Optima 6 support automatic angle measurement?

Yes. Ursviken offers integrated angle measurement systems for the Optima 6 that perform real-time springback compensation. This feature allows the machine to achieve target angles consistently without operator trial bends, significantly reducing scrap on high-value materials.

03 Is crowning available to compensate for beam deflection on long bends?

The Optima 6 series supports both mechanical and hydraulic crowning systems. On longer bed versions, active hydraulic crowning is recommended to dynamically counteract deflection across the working length, ensuring uniform bend angles from end to end of the workpiece.
