A handling device is provided. The handling device has a holding unit which has at least one holding element with which the part to be bent which is to be received and is arranged on a loading surface can be gripped on one of its flat sides by forces acting in a pulling manner on one side of the flat side at a plurality of successive locations in the longitudinal direction, that the holding unit for its part can be pivoted relative to a pivoting carrier unit about a first pivot axis parallel to the longitudinal direction, that the pivoting carrier unit can be pivoted relative to a pivoting carrier base about a second pivot axis which extends parallel to the first pivot axis, that the pivoting carrier base can be moved by means of a carrier base moving unit in a direction transverse to the second pivot axis.
Handling device for inserting parts to be bent into a bending device for the bending thereof about at least one bending edge, the handling device has a holding unit which is formed to be elongate in a longitudinal direction and has at least one holding element with which the part to be bent, which is to be received and is arranged on a loading surface, is grippable on one of its flat sides by forces of attraction on one side of the flat side at a plurality of successive locations in the longitudinal direction, the holding unit for its part is pivotable relative to a pivoting carrier unit about a first pivot axis parallel to the longitudinal direction, the pivoting carrier unit is pivotable relative to a pivoting carrier base about a second pivot axis which extends parallel to the first pivot axis, the pivoting carrier base is movable by means of a carrier base moving unit in a direction transverse to the second pivot axis, and, with the handling device, the part to be bent is movable between a receiving position for the part to be bent on the loading surface and a bending device insertion position for the part to be bent.
Bending installation comprising a bending device, a loading device and a handling device, for inserting parts to be bent into a bending device for the bending thereof about at least one bending edge, the handling device has a holding unit which is formed to be elongate in a longitudinal direction and has at least one holding element with which the part to be bent, which is to be received and is arranged on a loading surface, is grippable on one of its flat sides by forces of attraction on one side of the flat side at a plurality of successive locations in the longitudinal direction, the holding unit for its part is pivotable relative to a pivoting carrier unit about a first pivot axis parallel to the longitudinal direction, the pivoting carrier unit is pivotable relative to a pivoting carrier base about a second pivot axis which extends parallel to the first pivot axis, the pivoting carrier base is movable by means of a carrier base moving unit in a direction transverse to the second pivot axis, and, with the handling device, the part to be bent is movable between a receiving position for the part to be bent on the loading surface and a bending device insertion position for the part to be bent, by means of which handling device, a part to be bent is received by the loading device and the received part to be bent is inserted multiple times in the bending device in order to bend a portion of the part to be bent.
Method for bending a part to be bent in a bending device using an insertion device, wherein the part to be bent is received by means of the handling device and is successively inserted, fixed and bent in the bending device in different insertion positions of the part to be bent, and the finished part to be bent is subsequently moved out of the bending device and deposited by the handling device.
