3-in-1 workstation
MOTI-50-3NC 3-in-1 Busbar Processing Machine
A wider working range for panel production.
The 50-3NC combines cutting, punching and bending in the 16 mm thickness class. Working width is specified for the selected configuration. Send your connection drawing to review the machine and tooling for your panel designs.

THE RIGHT APPLICATION
A larger working range for panel builders with mixed busbar sizes.
The MOTI-50-3NC brings three independently powered workstations to larger copper connections. It covers the 16 mm thickness class, with working width defined for the selected configuration. For panel builders, compare the actual connection: its hole pattern, bend direction and assembly clearance. Our HEMACK project shows how machine selection can extend to dedicated connection tooling.
01 TECHNICAL OVERVIEW
Know the working range.
Compare these working limits with your part. Your quotation identifies the supplied machine version and tooling.
| Cutting capacity (thickness × width) | 16 mm thickness; width by configuration |
|---|---|
| Punching capacity (thickness × width) | 16 mm thickness; width by configuration |
| Main bending capacity (thickness × width) | 16 mm thickness; width by configuration |
| Punching force | 500 kN |
| Bending force | 500 kN |
| Machine weight | 1750 kg |
| Bending accuracy | ±1 ° |
| Repeat bending accuracy | ±0.3 ° |
| Punching diameter | 4.3–34 mm |
| Main motors | 3 × 5.5 kW |
| Edge bending (width × thickness) | 120 × 12 mm |
Before you choose
Cutting, punching and main bending support the 16 mm thickness class. Working width is specified for the selected configuration. Edge bending has a separate 12 × 120 mm limit.
A clear view of the working units
The double-column shearing unit, six-position punching turret and closed bending frame serve different stages of the job. This bending configuration uses Siemens control. Confirm the controller, die list and material supports for the version quoted for your order.
02 INSIDE THE PROCESS

Equipment details, positioning and the workpiece requirements to discuss for this model.
01
Cut to the next operation
The hydraulic shearing station prepares busbar blanks for punching and bending in the 16 mm thickness class. Confirm working width for the selected machine configuration. Review the blade arrangement, length reference and offcut support with your actual bar, then check cut squareness and edge condition on a sample.
02
Keep common holes ready
The punching station uses a six-position turret so several commonly used dies can remain installed. The published hole-diameter range is 4.3–34 mm. Coordinate, positioning-pin and laser positioning methods are described for the series; specify the required arrangement in the quotation. Each die must be matched to the material and thickness—maximum bar capacity does not mean every small punch works at that thickness.
03
Form the connection
The CNC bending station uses a closed frame and digital angle control for repeat work. Select the tools around the bend direction, radius and complete finished shape, including short flanges and successive bends. Main-direction bending uses the 16 mm thickness class with width specified by configuration; the separate edge-bending limit is 12 mm thickness × 120 mm width. Twisting and special forms require a tooling review.

03 TOOLS & FINISHED PARTS
Tooling, configuration and options
Standard configuration: Specify the punch dies, cutting blades and matching bending tools for the quoted machine. The quotation identifies the hole sizes, quantities and tool interfaces.
Options: Connection-specific punch-and-bend tools and custom turret apertures are designed around your drawing, as in our HEMACK project. They are specified separately from the general tool package.
Punching dies
Specify each hole shape, size, quantity and required thickness. Include slot orientation and edge distance.
Bending tools
Define flat or edge bends, angle, radius, minimum flange and any U/Z sequence. The finished shape determines tool access.
Cutting blades
Confirm the blade set for the selected machine and material; include replacement blades if needed.
Special forming tools
Twisting, embossing or combined operations need a drawing and confirmation of the machine interface.
04 FROM SELECTION TO PRODUCTION
Review a complete working cycle.
Prepare the job
Identify the material, drawing revision and finished-part dimensions. Select the required punch and bending tools, set the cutting reference and provide support for the full bar length. Use the operating manual for setup and tool changes.
Make and check the first part
Check cut length, hole centers and the finished bend against the drawing. Keep the same datum through successive operations. For a new material batch or tool, check the first bend before applying the setting to the rest of the order.
Organize the repeat work
The three independent hydraulic workstations allow cutting, punching and bending to be organized in parallel. Plan the operators’ working areas, part transfer and material supports. Actual output depends on the whole job, including loading, positioning and inspection.
THIS MODEL IN A CUSTOMER PROJECT
HEMACK: from a machine demonstration to connection tooling
A busbar machine has to fit the connection it produces. Our work with HEMACK brought the 50-3NC, punching dies and circuit-breaker connection tools into the same technical discussion.
05 MOTI-50-3NC · QUESTIONS
Before you choose.
The 50-3NC covers the 16 mm thickness class, with working width specified by configuration. Compare your part with the punching diameter, edge-bending limit, motor power and handling requirements. Edge bending has a separate 12 mm thickness × 120 mm width limit. The drawing and quoted machine configuration determine the suitable choice.
No. The standard machine requires workpiece handling and positioning at the workstations. CNC bending control and independent hydraulic systems do not make it an automatic production line. For servo-assisted positioning at cutting, punching and bending, compare the 50-3NC PRO.
The standard series distinguishes a published bending accuracy of ±1° from repeat bending accuracy of ±0.3°. These are different measures. Your trial should state the material, tooling, angle and measuring method, and check the completed part.
Yes. Send a dimensioned drawing with material, thickness, bend radius and angle, holes and assembly references. We can discuss the tool design and whether the existing turret or fixture needs a custom interface.
