Gulf States Saw & Machine.Co is a Member of the American Welding Society, NOMMA (National Ornamental & Miscellaneous Metals Association) and the National Glass Association:
High productivity, heavy duty bending performance, intuitive operation - all in one cost-efficient package
Next, determine the specific characteristics that must be taken into consideration when calculating the bend. You will need to consider the following:
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.
These machines are fast and efficient, as they run faster, more efficiently, and with greater reliability than their predecessors.
This revolutionary tool changer gives press brake operators real-time information to help them perform better.
According to the metal springback, you must adjust the angle of the bend and calculate the margin. So, for example, a 90deg bend must be bent, the punch must be reduced to 85deg.
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.
Warning: incorrect tonnage (too high or low) can damage your press brake or the part you are bending. To calculate the tonnage of your press brake, refer to the operating manual or a tonnage table.
These machines run fast and efficiently and are more reliable than their predecessors.
A Mitsubishi automatic tool changer (ATC) makes a great press brake.
Combine those outstanding machine capabilities listed above and then consider this; with our industry renowned service (we average 2 ½ service technicians to every salesperson), our well-staffed emergency service line, and a parts department that would blow your mind. If your initial investment includes tooling up your press brake, we have you covered there as well. We are factory trained and certified Wila and Wilson tooling experts with the tools on the shelf.
We also stock a range Press Brakes that can be used with hydraulic control systems. The hydraulic control system can bend large workpieces. It is able to work efficiently with thick metal materials due to its huge tonnage. The range can operate in Single Cylinder, Dual Cylinder Y1+Y2 format and doesn't require any complicated operations. Our Press Brakes are capable of processing steel, brass or metal sheets.
There are also the BH series "hybrid", which proves once again that not all hybrid press braking systems are created equal. These machines are the third generation and feature a dual-drive design that combines hydraulic and electric bending. They offer superior productivity, precision and reliability and energy savings.
Your brakes may touch the ground most often due to a problem with your brake fluid. Low fluid levels or air getting into the brake line can cause a spongy pedal. Another common reason for a pedal that isn't working properly is a bad brake booster.
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.
Hydraulic press machines have two main benefits: They reduce weight and allow for material conversation. Lower cost molds and a reduced number of parts. Production and initial costs are low. Capacity to handle high tonnage. It is safer than Mechanical presses. Overload protection built-in Less noise. More items.
A press brake is a machine that bends metal parts and sheets up 20mm thick.
