Innovative Solutions for Modern Manufacturing
In today’s fast-paced industrial landscape, new applications demand fresh ideas and machine concepts that adapt effortlessly to evolving manufacturing strategies. The BZ 1 and BZ 2 processing centers from Bihler are designed to meet these challenges head-on, offering unparalleled flexibility and versatility to handle a wide range of complex applications.
These compact, high-performance systems enable seamless integration of processes like punching, bending, welding, assembling, tapping, screw insertion, and even metal-cutting operations into a single production workflow. Equipped with two independent, parallel processing planes, the BZ machines can operate separately or in unison, delivering the flexibility needed to manufacture larger parts and complex assemblies with ease. Whether radial or linear tooling solutions are required, the BZ series excels at delivering precision and efficiency.
At the heart of these powerful systems is the VariControl VC 1 multi-axis controller, ensuring intuitive operation, maximum process reliability, and simplified handling. The result? A smarter, safer, and more efficient production process that keeps you ahead in a competitive marketplace.
