Abstract
A bending machine designed to bend and shape sheet metal comprises a blade-holder unit () with a 'C' shaped cross-section, mobile along two mutually orthogonal directions with respect to a fixed bed, and on which one or more bending blades are fixed. This machine comprises a kinematic system for driving the operating units, in which servomotors () and epicyclical reduction gears are used for the movement of the blade-holder unit (). Moreover, the blade-holder unit () of the bending machine uses an articulated mechanism consisting of two mechanical units () which form a closed kinematic chain with five members connected by five kinematic turning pairs.
