What the HX160-260 busbar leveling machine does

The LT HX160-260 is a roller type copper busbar leveling and bending machine. It flattens busbar that has distorted in storage or handling and can bend where the application calls for it, with fast output and straightforward operation. Leveling matters in UK switchgear work because a bar that is not flat will not seat evenly against its connection face, which shows up later as a poor joint rather than as an obvious manufacturing fault. It is a support machine rather than a production centre — typically bought alongside a punching and bending machine to deal with the bars that arrive out of tolerance.

Measured performance — HX160-260

Test conditions: Roller type leveling of copper busbar, with busbar bending capability, for bar up to the manufacturer's stated 160–260 mm class.

Measured values: Roller type leveling principle; fast output; efficient operation with simple and convenient control.

Benchmark: Machine leveling against hand straightening: the bar is brought back to flat by rolls, so the correction is uniform along the length instead of localised at the point the operator worked.
