Ranging from entry-level hydraulic all the way up to heavy-duty, fully customized solutions that cover any of your requirements for sheet metal forming, these press brakes represent the apex of pounds-to-performance for industrial bending.
It's obvious that press brakes can be a very useful tool for industrial-grade metalworkers. Do you need a press brake for your business? Gulf States Saw & Machine. Co offers everything you need to make your business a success.
Standard press brakes offer the reliability and dependability your operation needs day after day. Simple controls make it easy to use. Our press brakes have the ability to handle a wide range materials including soft brass, heat treated aluminum alloys, stainless and soft aluminum, as well as chrome molybdenum.
Air bending is done by bending sheet metal at the ends of the punch and 2 edges of V. This type of bend also creates a spring effect in the work piece. Because the bending force in this case is weaker, the metal sheet can spring backwards as if it were elastic.
Press brakes were limited to making bends using one axis. They were more limited than modern machines that can program 12 or more movement axes. Modern press brakes have high precision and produce graphical representations to aid the operator. Setup time is significantly reduced with newer computers. They can quickly calculate the optimal settings according to materials, dimensions, and the desired result. These calculations were once done manually.
This options list could be almost endless, we will just list the major ones here, if you don’t see something you want, just ask us we probably have it. Since safety is of the utmost priority, at the top of our list of options is the AKAS-LC world class laser safety system, considered to be the best you can get for a press brake. Light curtain Sick C 4000 for combination machines. Additional axis up to 14. Extended travel back gauge to 39 inches with safety light curtain. Sheet follower with motorized height adjustment. Updated cnc controllers from Delem (DA69T) or Cybelec (10S,12S,15S, 3D with PC1200). Quick release clamping, hydraulic clamping, Wila or Wilson mechanical or hydraulic clamping, tooling options from the “who’s who” of press brake tooling. Bottom tool positioning systems, thickness measurement systems, offline software for V-Bend or Profile-W.
The next step is to determine the characteristics that will be used to calculate the part bend. For example:
It runs on a double axis back gauge system and is capable of automated bending step calculation and also bending lengths that are full between the side frames. These servo-electric Press Brakes are big on precision bending, eco-friendly, easy to use and require the least maintenance cost.
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.
Also, consider other elements when calculating the margin such as the thickness, length and opening of the V.
This dual-drive hybrid can be used to quickly complete any project. It is long-lasting, high-speed and energy-efficient.
It is said that the "little guys" sometimes punch higher than their weight classes. Our small, 4-foot press brake is an example of this. The compact bender includes a CNC-controlled X-axis back gauge, tangs capable of accepting euro or american tooling, an LED rear working light and two front sheet supports that slide with a linear rail. There is also a dual palm/foot station equipped with a selector switch. This small, powerful and precise press brake packs a punch.
Tonnage refers to the press force applied by the brake. It is the pressure that can apply to the punch during the bending operation.
Ranging from entry-level hydraulic all the way up to heavy-duty, fully customized solutions that cover any of your requirements for sheet metal forming, these press brakes represent the apex of pounds-to-performance for industrial bending.
When you travel at a decent speed, the first brake is used. If you need to stop your car or your car's speed reaches the lowest gear, you will need to use your brakes to prevent it from stalling.
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.
Brake discs are designed to last for at least 50,000 miles, although there are many factors that can affect their lifespan. You may get as many as 80,000 miles from one set if you take care of them and drive responsibly.
Hydraulic presses brakes can be used to bend or fold metal by pressing it into dies. These presses can be used for both sheet metal work and continuous production. These presses can handle difficult industrial production jobs, from single-cycle operations to automated components.
The press brake can do tasks that would normally fall to special machines. For example, press brakes can form rods or tubes from raw materials not usually associated with sheet metal benders. You can also use press brakes to attach various types of press-fit hardware to sheet metal parts.
