A hands-on start at FEIMEC
The HEMACK contact began at FEIMEC 2026 in São Paulo, where the customer could see the MOTI busbar machine, inspect its components and discuss test operation. The MOTI team subsequently visited HEMACK’s facility. That gave the conversation a production context: the bars being made, the connection requirements and the customer’s future plans.
Define the holes and bends together
The project review covered punching-die dimensions and quantities as well as bending requirements. HEMACK’s electrical-panel and automation work makes the finished connection the useful starting point. A machine can have sufficient force and width while still needing a special tool for a particular hole shape or short connection.
A combined punching and bending tool
The project report presents a custom tool that combines a punch with a bending die in its base. It is designed for a single-operation punching and bending process on connection pieces. The described application is lateral and central connections to DIN-standard circuit breakers used with distribution boxes and panels. The tool requires drawings that identify thickness, bend angle and opening dimensions, and the matching turret needs custom-machined apertures. This interface should be included when specifying the machine.
Document the actual machine before dispatch
Before shipment, machine photographs and video allow the customer to review the completed equipment. The shipment preparation described in the report includes reinforcement and anti-rust measures for transport. For a similar order, the machine configuration, tool list and agreed inspection points should be kept together with the final packing information.
Bring your connection into the discussion
For your own panel project, send a dimensioned connection drawing and show where it meets the breaker or main busbar. Include hole shapes, material, quantity and the operations you want to combine. We can then discuss a standard tool set, a dedicated forming tool or a different workstation arrangement.
