High-Precision Automated Steel Rule Processing for Professional Rotary Die Making
The YITAI Rotary Rule Bending Machine is an advanced bending system engineered specifically for rotary die manufacturing.
With its integrated multi-function structure, high-precision feeding system, and intelligent software control, the BR1 significantly enhances the efficiency, accuracy, and consistency of rotary steel rule processing.
Designed to support both rotary rules and flat steel rules, the BR1 enables die makers to complete bending, cutting, bridging, lipping, notching, and perforating—all in one machine.
What Makes the BR1 Essential for Rotary Die Making?
1. Full Support for Rotary & Flat Steel Rules
The BR1 is engineered for various rule types used across packaging and die-cutting industries:
- Rotary rules
- Flat cutting rules
- Creasing rules
- Laser-crease rules
Supported Rule Specifications
- Diameter (Rotary): 200–800 mm (automatic adjustment)
- Rule Height: 23.8–26.4 mm
- Rule Thickness: 0.71–1.42 mm
This wide compatibility covers nearly all rule standards used in professional rotary die making.
2. High-Precision Dual-Screw Feeding System
The patented dual-screw feeding mechanism provides:
- ±0.03 mm feeding precision
- Smooth and stable rule feeding
- No deformation regardless of rule hardness
- Improved bending consistency
A built-in jam-detection alarm automatically stops the machine to prevent tool damage.
3. Integrated Multi-Function Processing System
The BR1 consolidates six major steel rule processes into one platform:
✓ Bending
High-precision bending with excellent flatness (±0.2 mm) and minimum bending radius R5 mm.
✓ Cutting
Automatic flat cutting ensures clean and accurate rule lengths.
✓ Bridging
Software-controlled bridge height: 8–18 mm, adjustable without changing molds.
✓ Lipping
Consistent lipping for secure and stable rule installation.
✓ Notching
- 90° notches
- Slot-shape notches
- Automatic notch at bending positions (for flat rules)
✓ Perforating
Perforation sizes can be customized based on user requirements.
4. One-Click Software Automation
The BR1 uses YITAI’s advanced Windows 10–based rule processing system, offering:
- Multilingual interface
- DXF / DWG / CF2 file compatibility
- Auto-adjustment for bridge height and lipping
- Operator-friendly CAD interface
- Intelligent protection and monitoring
This drastically reduces setup time and makes the machine easy for new operators to learn.
5. 6-in-1 Automatic Rule Feeder
The intelligent auto-feed system includes:
- Six individual coil holders
- Smooth automatic switching
- Software-managed feeding
- Continuous operation without manual intervention
This greatly increases productivity and reduces labor workload.
6. Industrial-Grade Durability and Fast Maintenance
- High-speed steel (Japan imported) punching dies
- Quick mold replacement—within 3 minutes
- Reinforced machine frame for long-term stability
- Components designed for heavy-duty daily operation
The BR1 is engineered for high-volume rotary die production environments.
