Economic Busbar Machine
PAYAPRESS economic busbar machines put cutting, punching and bending into one compact, wheel-mounted unit, so you can process copper and aluminum busbars up to 120 × 12 mm in-house without investing in a fully automatic line. The range has three models. The HBC-EA120 gives each station its own power pack, so all three operations run at the same time. The HBC-EB120 drives all stations from a single power pack for the lowest running power. The compact HBC-PC120 is built for smaller workshops and runs on 220 V. Compare the three below to find the machine your volume and budget call for.

Economic Busbar Machines: Full Processing Without the CNC Price
Not every workshop needs a fully automatic busbar line. If your orders run in small and medium batches, an economic busbar machine gives you the three core operations, cutting, punching and bending, in one compact, wheel-mounted unit at a much lower investment. The PAYAPRESS economic range has three models: the HBC-EA120, the HBC-EB120 and the HBC-PC120. They share the same busbar capacity and differ in how many operations can run at once and how much power they need.
What Size of Busbar Can Economic Busbar Machines Process?
All three machines process copper and aluminum busbars up to 120 mm wide and 12 mm thick, from 15 to 120 mm in width and 3 to 12 mm in thickness, in lengths up to 4 m. They punch round holes from Ø4.5 to 20 mm and bend with 220 kN on the EA120 and EB120, or 160 kN on the PC120. That covers most of the bars found in low-voltage panels, distribution boards and small switchgear.
What Are Economic Busbar Machines Used For?
A straight bar becomes a finished part in three steps, and each of them is done on the same machine:
- Cutting: bars are cut to length, up to 4 m long, with clean edges.
- Punching: round holes from Ø4.5 to 20 mm, with changeable dies, for bolts and terminals.
- Bending: flat bends as standard, plus step, edge and twist bends with optional molds.
The result is ready to bolt in: main and distribution bars, connections between circuit breakers and terminals, earthing and neutral bars, and busbar sets for busway and power distribution units.
Where Are Economic Busbar Machines Used?
Wherever power is distributed through copper or aluminum bars, someone has to prepare them. These machines are a good fit for:
- Electrical panel and switchgear workshops
- Transformer and busway manufacturers
- Electrical contractors who build and modify panels in-house
- Maintenance and service shops in power plants, substations and factories
- Renewable energy, battery storage and data center installers
Why Is Buying an Economic Busbar Machine Worth It?
An economic machine pays for itself by taking busbar work off the outsourcing list. These are the reasons that matter most:
- Lower investment. You get cutting, punching and bending without paying for a fully automatic CNC line.
- Less outsourcing, less rework. Bars made in-house cut waiting time, copper waste and mistakes from sending drawings out.
- Three operations, one machine. One purchase, one footprint and one operator training instead of three separate machines.
- Accurate holes. Hole spacing is held to ±0.1 mm on the EA120 and EB120.
- Easy to place. All three machines are wheel-mounted and fit in a small workshop.
Which Economic Busbar Machine Should You Choose?
- HBC-EA120: the most productive of the three. Each station has its own 1.5 kW power pack, so cutting, punching and bending run at the same time. Choose it when two or three people work at the machine.
- HBC-EB120: the lowest entry cost for full processing. One 1.5 kW power pack drives all stations, with 1.7 kW of total power, and operations run one at a time.
- HBC-PC120: the most compact. It runs on 220 V with one power pack and a footprint of 1,200 × 1,000 mm, which suits small workshops and job sites.

Frequently Asked Question
All you need to know abou HBC economic busbar machines
What is an economic busbar machine?
An economic busbar machine cuts, punches and bends copper and aluminum busbars in one compact unit, at a much lower investment than a fully automatic CNC line. It is built for workshops with small and medium batches.
Which economic busbar machines does PAYAPRESS offer?
Three models: the HBC-EA120, the HBC-EB120 and the HBC-PC120. All three process bars up to 120 × 12 mm and are wheel-mounted.
What is the largest busbar these machines can process?
Bars up to 120 mm wide and 12 mm thick, and up to 4 m long. The full range is 15 to 120 mm in width and 3 to 12 mm in thickness, in both copper and aluminum.
What is the largest hole they can punch?
Round holes up to Ø20 mm per stroke. The punching range runs from Ø4.5 to 20 mm, with changeable dies.
What is the difference between the HBC-EA120 and the HBC-EB120?
The EA120 has three power packs, so cutting, punching and bending can run at the same time. The EB120 drives all stations from a single power pack and works one operation at a time, which gives it the lowest entry cost.
When should I choose the HBC-PC120?
Choose it when space and power supply are limited. It is the most compact of the three, with a footprint of 1,200 × 1,000 mm, and it runs on 220 V with one power pack.
