The PA Plus series combines functionality and versatility in one powerful package. The PA Plus series is designed for a large array of accessories for a customizable solution.
Hydraulic press brakes can be used for heavy-duty work. They can also be customized to meet customer requirements, from high tonnage to long-length tandems and everything in-between.
The first generation of press brakes had only one axis that could bend. These machines were far less flexible than modern machines that have 12 or more programmable movement axes. Modern presses brakes are extremely precise and can create visual representations of the final result to assist the operator. The setup time has been greatly reduced by modern computers. These computers can quickly determine the optimal settings based upon materials used, their dimensions, and desired results. Back in the day, these calculations were done manually.
Whatever your bending needs, our BB series is here to make sure that power, precision, and profit are never far away.
Once you have determined these characteristics, you can calculate the required tonnage for the bending operation.
Tonnage is the force that the press brake applies to the material. It determines how much pressure can be applied to the punch during bending.
This margin should also be calculated taking into consideration other factors such as the thickness and length of your punch blade, the fold length, or the opening of your V.
Our BH series has the right product for you, whatever your bending needs. Power, precision, profit, and profit are all within reach.
Two ways can press brakes bend metal are available. Bottom bending is the first method. The ram presses the metal down to the bottom of a die. Bottom bending is a more precise method of creating bends that require less pressure from the press brake machine. Each tool is made to make a specific angle, so you will need to buy a new one every time you want to bend. An air pocket is created when you bend by air. This allows the operator the flexibility to adjust for any material's spring back. If the material is too thick, these types of dies can be modified. The downside to air bending is that the angle accuracy is affected by thickness. Therefore, the ram must be replaced accordingly.
The BH series hybrid press brakes prove that not all hybrid presses are created equally. The patented dual-drive design of these third-generation machines allows you to get the best of both hydraulic bending and electric bending. This is even more than other hydraulic, hybrid, or electric pulley-style presses.
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.
4. Choose the correct upper and lower dies for your press brake toolings based on the sheet metal hardness, thickness, length, and other factors. The slot width of the lower den should be between 5-6 times and 6-8 times the thickness of a metal plate. The sheet should have a longer length.

Braking techniques: Controlled braking. You can slow down or maintain a slower speed by applying steady pressure to the brake pedal. ... Threshold brake. You can use brakes to increase your car's grip and control on the road surface by shifting weight to the front wheels. Cover brakes.
To pump hydraulic fluid into the system, pressure is applied by hand. The pressure is transferred to another area, and the resultant force can reach 25 tons.
