Bevel unit vs. BIBER

With the BIBER, chamfers can be realized efficiently and cost-effectively even on complex components.

Bevel unit vs. BIBER

	Gantry cutting systems with bevel unit	Robot cutting system BIBER
Bevel shapes	V possible	V possible
	HY partly possible	HY possible
	X partly possible	X possible
	K not possible	K possible
Flat chamfers	Not possible	On top up to 30° At bottom up to 20°
4-fould chamfers	Not possible	Possible
Processing time for simple chamfer geometries	Faster, as the part can be cut out of the board ready for use	Slower due to double handling
Processing time for challenging chamfer geometries	Rework may be necessary	No rework regarding angle, bridge dimension, fitting accuracy
Cutting time	Slower, because e.g. HY has 2 long cuts through the entire plate	Faster, e.g. HY: 1 long cut (pre-process), 1 short cut (chamfer length)
Accuracy	Lower, for multiple cuts	Higher, as inaccuracies are measured and corrected. E.g. no 90° cut from pre-process is included
Narrow Radii	Not possible	Small geometries are possible due to the better mobility of the robot, e.g. countersinkings
Material thickness	Smaller material thicknesses are possible, as you always have to cut through the entire plate.	Larger material thicknesses are possible, as only the effective component size has to be taken into account.
Material consumption	The material consumption is higher for bevel cuts through the entire plate.	Material consumption is lower because only the effective component size has to be taken into account.
Cutting range	Due to the gantry design of the machine, large component sizes are possible.	Since the robot has a limited range, only cutting widths up to 3 m are possible.
Chamfers on all sides of the component	Not possible: at least one side of the component has to be connected to the plate during chamfering.	Possible: components with bevels on all sides can be chamfered
