Bending

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 presse brakes are great for heavy-duty tasks and can be customized to suit any customer's needs.

Before you choose your press brake, it is important to know what type of metal you are going to be bending (stainless steel or 16 gauge mild steel).

No matter what your bending requirements, the BH series can help you make sure power, precision and profit are always within reach.

Generally, the tonnage of a Hydraulic Press Brake is also known as the Press Capacity and is what determines the size of the work-piece that can be processed on the Press Brake and the unit of force measurement which is a press brake can deliver and is what bends work-pieces into desired/specific degrees. The tonnage range of our Press Brakes is between 30 tons to 3000 tons while the bed lengths begin at 4 feet and ranges up to almost 30 feet.

Frequently Asked Questions

Brake Pads May be Damaged by WD40 WD40 is not an oil cleaner. It is an oil, and should not be used on a friction surface. The friction surface of brake pads is called WD40. If you spray WD40 on them, they will need to be replaced or cleaned.

A press brake is a machine that bends metal parts and sheets up 20mm thick.

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.

Hydraulic brakes are more efficient than mechanical disc brakes. This means that you will need to apply less pressure to the lever for equal braking power. This allows for better modulation.

The CNC Press Brake is fast to set up and has a repeatability of +/–0.0004 inches. This will allow you to reduce the time it takes to make parts.
