This revolutionary tool changer gives press brake operators real-time information to help them perform better.
Gulf States Saw & Machine. Co. offers a wide selection of hydraulic presses to meet the specific needs of every business we serve. Our press brakes can be adjusted to any length bed, with either CNC or manual controls. They are available in sizes ranging from 22 tons to 440tons and bed lengths ranging from 4' up to 13'. We are also able to accept custom orders, including length and tonnage requests. All our press brakes are equipped with safety devices, and a rear safety box that deactivates the machine when it is opened. This prevents any unauthorised maintenance. All electrical components are constructed using industry-standard parts. These parts can be readily found in our Memphis TN warehouse. You can download the pdf to see more details about each model.
The package includes raw power, heavy duty bending performance, improved technology, and all this at a low price.
Add to that the incredible machine capabilities mentioned above, and you will be amazed at what we can do for you. If you are looking to upgrade your press brake or make an initial investment, we can help. We have the tools you need and are factory-trained Wilson and Wila tooling experts.
For industries and jobs that don’t require the detail and precision achieved with CNC controls, our manual control press brakes offer ease of use when you’re looking to keep things simple. The manual press brakes have all the same safety features of the CNC models, manual press brakes are powerful machines that are easy to get started on and great for more straightforward jobs. They include a front-operated power back-gauge and ram adjust with digital readouts and fine adjustment handwheels for both. Our models range from 22 tons to 440 tons.
It is a unique technology that allows press brake operators of all skill levels to produce high quality, efficient results.
We provide press brakes to help improve your production, speed up production, minimize energy consumption and reduce operating cost. Our press brakes are available in sizes from 40-to-2,000-ton capacities, with anywhere from 3-11 axes. This includes tool layout, collision report editing, back gauge edit, and DiamondSoft(r).
Gulf States Saw & Machine. Co. has a wide range of hydraulic press brake models that can be used to serve the diverse needs of all the businesses we service. Our press brakes are available in sizes from 22 tons up to 440 tonnes and can have beds lengths of 4' to 13'. We are able to accommodate special length requests and specific tonnage in addition to the standard stock. For easy and safe maintenance, all of our press brakes have safety devices. All electrical components are manufactured using industry-standard parts which can be easily found in our Memphis warehouse. Get more information about each model by downloading a pdf.
Our BH series has the right product for you, whatever your bending needs. Power, precision, profit, and profit are all within reach.
ADR hydraulic press brake and ADS hydraulic pressure brake are equally fast as they are accurate. These press brakes have a superior accuracy of +-.0004 and a repeatability that is second to none. Our concept of "large strokes", high openings, deep throats and high pressure is present in all JMT press presses. This allows the operators to create parts with larger flanges. It also makes it much simpler to remove those parts. Operators will find it easier to setup and control the press at a quicker pace. The end result is more parts in their bins by the end, which means a higher level of quality.
A press brake is a machine tool used for bending metal parts and sheets up to 20 mm thick. It is composed of a V-shaped or U-shaped die (depending on the desired bending shape) and a punch. The material to be bent is placed on the die and pressed by the punch which then bends the sheet to the selected degree.
Our manual control push brakes are suitable for industries and jobs that don’t require the precision and detail achieved by CNC controls. The manual press brakes include all the safety features of CNC models. However, manual presses are more powerful and easier to use than CNC models. They feature a front operated power back-gauge, ram adjust with digital readings, and fine adjustment handswheels for both. Our models range from 22 to 44 tons.
Our machines are built with industry-leading production capabilities and feature intuitive operator controls that reduce stress for all skill levels.
There are two ways press brakes can bend metal. The first is called bottom bending because the ram will press the metal to the bottom of the die. Bottom bending results in highly accurate bends and relies less on the press brake machine itself. The downside is each tool is they're made to create one specific bend, so you’ll need to purchase a new one for every angle you want to make. Air bending leaves an air pocket between the ram and the bottom of the die. This allows the operator to accommodate for any spring back the material might provide. These types of dies only need to be changed if the material’s thickness is too much. Air bending’s drawback is the accuracy of the angle is affected by the material’s thickness, so the ram needs to be changed out accordingly.
Hydraulic systems have many advantages, including power, efficiency, and ease of maintenance. They also have their drawbacks: they can leak which can make them messy and the fluids within them can be difficult to paint or seal.
Rare earth magnets can withstand pressures up to 9,000 lbs per square inch, but not for what you might think. The Internet has seen hydraulic presses crush things for a while.
Material Type and Thickness Maximum Material Length. Complexity of bends. Accuracy of Bend. Per day, number of parts required. Each day, there are approximately 2,000 parts/tooling changes. Level of skill for press brake operator.
Hydraulic presses can be expensive and eat up a large portion of machine shop budgets of all sizes. However, choosing the lowest-cost press can lead to higher long-term costs. These are some things to keep in mind when selecting your next hydraulic press.
The panel bender is more efficient than a traditional press brake due to its tooling advantages. It also has a faster, more consistent, and repeatable process. Both can benefit from CNC (computer numerical control), but a press brake needs manual manipulation of the sheet metal, bend to bend.
