After the outbreak of the Russia–Ukraine conflict, Europe and the United States implemented strict export controls on Russia, which led to a significant decline in Russia’s total imports.
Historically, mechanical and electrical equipment and transportation equipment have been Russia’s core import categories. However, following the conflict, Western countries imposed export restrictions primarily targeting these two major commodity groups:
Electromechanical equipment
Transportation equipment
As a result, after 2022, Russia’s imports dropped sharply. Exports of electromechanical and transportation equipment from Europe, the United States, and Japan to Russia declined substantially.
The total reduction reached approximately USD 36 billion
This accounted for 55% of the total decline in Russian imports
While Russia’s total imports declined, China’s exports to Russia expanded significantly in 2022.
The key reason is that Chinese manufacturers replaced the market share previously held by Europe, the United States, and Japan, especially in:
Industrial machinery
Electromechanical equipment
Sheet metal processing equipment
This structural change created strong demand in Russia for high-quality, cost-effective Chinese sheet metal lines, including coil fed punching machines and CNC panel benders.
Remcor provides advanced and fully integrated sheet metal lines designed for high-efficiency, large-scale industrial production.
Our CNC panel bender and coil fed punching machines offer a complete solution covering the entire process:
Coil sheet decoiling
Levelling and straightening
Punching holes or shapes as required
Profile shearing
Robotic stacking and feeding
Automatic panel bending
These intelligent sheet metal processing lines can realize 24-hour unmanned production, making them an ideal solution for industries such as:
Electrical cabinets
Steel wardrobes and closets
Steel drawers
Office steel file cabinets
Steel safety boxes
Kitchen sinks
Elevator doors and elevator cabins
Remcor is the only coil fed punching machine manufacturer in China capable of achieving fully automatic processing from coil sheets to finished panel bending jobs.
The complete process includes:
Coil levelling
High-precision punching
Robotic stacking
Robotic feeding
CNC panel bending
This enables 24/7 unmanned operation, significantly reducing labor dependency.
Power consumption is only 1 kWh per hour
Equivalent to approximately USD 1 per hour
This gives Remcor’s sheet metal lines a major advantage in operating cost compared with traditional processing methods.
All finished products processed by our CNC panel bender and coil fed punching machines:
Strictly follow customer drawings
Maintain high dimensional accuracy
Ensure consistent quality in mass production
Total investment cost is only about one-third (1/3) of comparable PIVATIC sheet metal coil lines
Much faster return on investment (ROI)
This makes Remcor’s coil fed punching machines and CNC panel benders extremely attractive for manufacturers expanding or replacing existing lines.
Our sheet metal lines are equipped with world-renowned CNC control systems, offering:
High stability
Flexible customization
Support for special customer requirements
User-friendly interface and easy operation
In 2022, Remcor welcomed two groups of professional customers from Russia to visit and inspect our coil sheet processing lines and CNC panel bender systems.
These customers represent one of the largest steel furniture manufacturing groups serving:
Western Europe
Eastern Europe
Russia
During the visit:
The specialists carefully inspected every section of the coil fed punching machines
They evaluated the performance of the CNC panel bender
Both parties discussed detailed technical and production requirements
Live demonstrations showed how our sheet metal lines operate specifically for the furniture industry
After thorough inspection, the customers expressed high confidence in Remcor’s technology, quality, and automation level.
The complete coil sheet punching line and CNC panel bender solution was finalized after 6 months of production
The processing lines were successfully installed and commissioned in Moscow
The lines are now running stably in daily production
The customer has expressed high satisfaction with:
Production efficiency
Automation level
Final product quality
Operating cost savings
In the context of global supply chain restructuring, Remcor’s CNC panel bender and coil fed punching machines provide an ideal solution for manufacturers seeking:
High automation
Stable quality
Low operating cost
Fast ROI
Our advanced sheet metal lines help customers replace traditional processing methods and achieve intelligent, unmanned, and efficient production, especially in markets such as Russia, Eastern Europe, and Central Asia.
