The Pilbara, Western Australia workshop of Bennco Engineering has received a major upgrade with the arrival of a new Haco Synchromaster 40250 CNC press brake.

Bennco Engineering has built its reputation on delivering high-quality structural, mechanical and piping fabrication for the mining and resources sector. Working in such a remote region means every piece of equipment must perform flawlessly. That is why Bennco decided to invest in a new press brake that combines accuracy, consistency and easy operation.

According to Geoff Archer, general manager for Haco in Australia, the Synchromaster was the ideal fit. He explains that the machine’s design focuses on reliability and intuitive control, allowing operators to complete complex bending jobs faster and with greater precision: “It’s all about giving fabricators the confidence to push productivity without compromising on quality.”

The Synchromaster 40250 offers a bending length of 4100 mm and a pressing capacity of 2500 kN, making it a powerful workhorse for heavy-duty applications. Equipped with the EASYBEND 2D Multi Touch system, operators can program bends quickly, visualise each step in real time and let the machine automatically calculate the optimal bending sequence.

Archer highlights that the Y1/Y2 hydraulic synchro system ensures exact positioning within a tolerance of just 0.01 mm, while the CNC crowning table guarantees a straight bend every time. Combined with a fast approach speed of 130 mm per second, the press brake delivers both precision and productivity on a daily basis.

By adopting this level of technology, Bennco Engineering can now bend and fabricate more components onsite for quicker delivery to its customers across the Pilbara.
