About PBT AG
PBT AG, short for Profile Bending Technology, was founded in 1991 in Weinfelden, in the Swiss canton of Thurgau. It develops and builds profile bending machines and the digital controls that run them. It has a subsidiary in Siegen, Germany, and works with partners worldwide. PBT is part of the Storskogen Group.
PBT machines bend profiles, tubes and sections into arcs, rings and complex shapes. Typical uses are window and façade frames, car parts, aircraft parts and conveyor systems. The range runs from the compact ARKUS12 and PBT15 through the modular PBT25 and the PBT35 Servo Wide, up to the HELIX Servo for large profiles. Options include a twister for helical bends, 3D bend-and-twist devices, mandrel bending and radius measurement. PBT also designs its own controls, the PC400 and Tablet350, which can also run robots, saws and other equipment in a bending cell.
PBT supports customers from the first idea through to production. It advises before purchase, plans projects, makes prototype bent parts, and designs and builds special bending tools. It also installs and commissions machines, trains operators, provides service and maintenance, retrofits and modernises older machines, and builds automated bending cells. Used PBT machines are also available.
