Good for the purse - good design

With the ByJet Smart waterjet cutting system and the Xcel 50 pressbrake, Bystronic launched its midrange offensive. Customers benefit from good machines at a low price. It's no secret that Bystronic can produce top-class machines to meet the highest demands.

But can the Swiss company also compete in the midrange? Good products that offer just what is required and are inexpensive to purchase and maintain? With the launching of the ByVention laser cutting system, Bystronic has already proven: they can! And now also in the waterjet cutting and bending sectors Bystronic has ventured into the midrange and launched two top-class products for these market segments: the ByJet Smart waterjet cutting system and the Xcel 50 pressbrake.

ByJet Smart – economical, high quality, and compact

One look at the ByJet Smart waterjet cutting system makes one thing clear: performance and quality are not related to price. With such a machine the customer benefits financially on two levels: firstly from a low purchase price and secondly in the form of reduced operating costs. The latter are in particular due to the fact that the new high pressure pump has a very high efficiency and operates extremely reliably so that the service interval is longer than average. Furthermore, the machine design is robust and concentrates on essentials thus guaranteeing favourably-priced maintenance.

However, the ByJet Smart is not just economical but also of high quality. It is equipped with numerous high-end components, amongst them the innovative cutting bridge fitted with a linear motor. Other examples are the cutting head with reliable height sensing and the precision manufactured machine frame. High-end materials such as the heavily damping composite material, which is used for the machine frame, and the intelligent material combination for the torsion-resistant cutting bridge, underline the Swiss focus on quality. This is also reflected in the workmanship and assembly of the machine. The result of this smart combination of proven concept and innovative technology is a durable machine with an outstanding cutting performance, which if required can be increased further. Since the ByJet Smart can be upgraded with additional productivity-improving components.

The ByJet Smart also has further convincing characteristic: it is compact. The well-conceived architecture of the safety concept, the optimal arrangement of all the elements, as well as the reduced overall size of the key components; all ensure a minimal footprint. At the same time, care has been taken to ensure that the machine can be easily accessed from several sides. And since the ByJet Smart is overall a compact package, it can be easily and rapidly assembled, dismantled and transported.

Xcel 50 pressbrake – a big solution in a small format

The Xcel 50 pressbrake is also compact. Hence, it will fit into the smallest free corner and saves on valuable production floor space. It was previously available in China and has gained a reputation there. An outstanding characteristic of the Xcel 50 is its price performance ratio, since it is favourably priced and is consistently limited to the essentials.

On the other hand, reliable Bystronic technology ensures very good bending results. Thus, the crowning system developed in Switzerland makes a consistent quality over the complete length of the bend. Additionally, machine operators can benefit from the convenient operation of the Xcel 50. This starts with the simple handling of the tool system, continues with the front workpiece support for efficient material handling, and extends to the numerical control. The latter is clearly structured and ensures simple programming. Once a program has been created, it can be called up again at the press of a button.

Furthermore, the effective laser protection guarantees the safety of the machine. In addition its perky looks makeNike
