Why GRM-NC?

GRM tool compatibility

Full tool compatibility with the mechanical GRM series; existing tools are adapted and optimised. The manufacturer reports an average 160 % output increase and 80 % set-up time reduction across 175 tools adapted to the RM-NC and GRM-NC.

Radial and linear LEANTOOL

Standard platform for LEANTOOL Radial R100 and Linear L250; interfaces in the forming area are 100 % compatible with L250 linear tools (Modular Series); process lengths of more than 2,000 mm in linear production with three bending modules and two servo presses.

Programmable servo axes

Working stroke, position and motion profile of the NC units are freely programmable; the adjustment and positioning unit reproduces all unit positions 100 % at the push of a button; up to 3 central mandrels, set up from the front.

Variants

GRM-NC radial

LEANTOOL Radial R100 or adapted GRM radial tools; in radial production the strip width equals the part width (for busbars, up to 50 % material savings according to the manufacturer)

Suited to: Busbars, contacts, clips

GRM-NC linear

LEANTOOL Linear L250; more than 2,000 mm process length with 3 bending modules + 2 servo presses; linear tools shared with the LM 2000-KT, LM 2000-NC and BIMERIC Modular

Suited to: Long parts, large busbars, multi-variant linear production

RM-NCsmaller sibling

200 kN servo eccentric press, 300 1/min, 20 kN units, 4 × 80 mm strip, Ø 4 mm wire; RM series and FINZER tool compatibility, LEANTOOL Radial R60

Suited to: Smaller radial parts

Mechanical GRM 80tool source

Cam-controlled GRM 80E / 80P: 250 1/min, 300–400 kN eccentric press; its tools can be adapted to the GRM-NC

Suited to: High-volume jobs with established tooling

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the GRM-NC and the RM-NC?

The GRM-NC is for larger parts: 400 kN servo spindle press (programmable stroke up to 60 mm), 31–47 kN NC units, 4 × 90 mm strip and approx. Ø 6 mm wire, and process lengths of more than 2,000 mm in linear production. The RM-NC reaches 300 1/min with a 200 kN servo eccentric press, 20 kN units, 4 × 80 mm strip and Ø 4 mm wire, and is the platform for LEANTOOL Radial R60.

Will my mechanical GRM 80 tools run on the GRM-NC?

Yes; the GRM-NC is fully compatible with mechanical GRM series tools, and existing tools are adapted and optimised. The manufacturer reports an average 160 % output increase and 80 % set-up time reduction across 175 tools adapted to the RM-NC and GRM-NC.

Which tooling technologies does the GRM-NC work with?

Adapted mechanical GRM tools (radial and linear), LEANTOOL Radial R100 and LEANTOOL Linear L250. L250 linear tools can be moved to the other Modular Series machines (LM 2000-KT, LM 2000-NC, BIMERIC Modular).
