Overview

The Ermak Falcon Bend 3100-135 is an electro-hydraulic synchronised press brake from Ermaksan's Falcon Bend series, designed to bring servo-controlled precision to mid-capacity bending applications. With 135 tonnes of pressing force across a 3,100 mm working length, it bridges the gap between entry-level hydraulic machines and fully electric press brakes, combining the energy efficiency of servo-hydraulic actuation with the robustness expected of Turkish-built sheet metal machinery.

The Falcon Bend uses closed-loop hydraulic synchronisation controlled by a Delem DA-66T or equivalent CNC, delivering Y1/Y2 cylinder positioning accuracy of ±0.01 mm. The frame is a welded monoblock steel construction stress-relieved after fabrication, providing the rigidity necessary for consistent angle repeatability across the full working length. The machine includes a standard motorised X-axis back-gauge with optional multi-axis configurations for complex part families.

Ermaksan supports the Falcon Bend with a crowning compensation system that automatically counteracts frame deflection during bending, ensuring uniform angles across long workpieces without manual shimming or operator intervention. The machine is CE-marked and ships with integrated laser safety guarding on the front as standard, meeting current European safety directives without additional cost to the end user.

The Falcon Bend 3100-135 is positioned as a cost-competitive alternative to Western European press brakes for fabricators seeking reliable performance in structural, HVAC, enclosure, and general sheet metal work. With Ermaksan's established European distribution network and spare parts availability, the machine offers a compelling total cost of ownership for shops looking to expand bending capacity without the premium pricing of German or Belgian alternatives.

Strengths & Limitations

Strengths

Servo-hydraulic drive reduces energy consumption by up to 50% compared to conventional hydraulic press brakes
Delem DA-66T control with 2D/3D graphical programming and offline simulation speeds setup significantly
Automatic crowning compensation ensures angle consistency across the full 3,100 mm working length
Competitive price point versus comparable Western European electro-hydraulic press brakes
Integrated laser safety guarding included as standard, reducing additional safety equipment costs

Limitations

Brand recognition in North American markets is lower than European competitors such as LVD or Trumpf, which may affect resale value
Service network outside Europe and the Middle East can be limited, with longer lead times for on-site support
Tooling compatibility is standard European style, requiring adapter kits for shops already invested in American-style tooling

Best For

General fabrication shops bending structural steel, mild steel, and stainless in thicknesses from 1–12 mm HVAC and ductwork manufacturers requiring consistent angles on long workpieces up to 3,100 mm Metal enclosure and cabinet manufacturers needing repeatable bends across medium-volume production runs Shops upgrading from older conventional hydraulic press brakes seeking improved energy efficiency and CNC capability

Frequently Asked Questions

01 What is the difference between the Ermak Falcon Bend and the CYB series press brakes?

The CYB series is Ermaksan's conventional synchronised hydraulic range with standard asynchronous motor drive. The Falcon Bend upgrades to a servo-hydraulic system, significantly reducing energy consumption and providing faster, more precise ram control. The Falcon Bend is better suited to shops with higher production volumes or energy cost concerns.

02 Can the Falcon Bend 3100-135 be configured with additional back-gauge axes?

Yes. The standard configuration includes a motorised R and X back-gauge axis. Optional upgrades include Z1/Z2 (finger positioning) and a second X2 axis for complex part families. Multi-axis back-gauges are configured at the factory and controlled through the Delem DA-66T CNC.

03 What tooling system does the Falcon Bend use?

The Falcon Bend uses European-standard Promecam/Wilson-style tooling with a clamping system compatible with most European tool brands including Wila, Rolleri, and Trumpf-style tools. American-style tooling requires an adapter.

04 Is automatic angle measurement available for the Falcon Bend?

Ermaksan offers an optional laser angle measurement system that mounts to the ram and provides real-time angle feedback during bending. This option closes the loop on angle accuracy and compensates for springback automatically, similar to LVD's Easy-Form system.

05 What is the lead time for delivery of a Falcon Bend 3100-135?

Typical ex-works lead time from Ermaksan's Bursa, Turkey factory is 8–14 weeks depending on specification and options. Machines bound for export markets include sea freight time on top of production lead time.
