Gulf States Saw & Machine. Co is a Member the American Welding Society (NOMMA) and the National Glass Association (NGA).
No matter your bending needs, the BB Series is there to help.
These machines are efficient and fast, and run more consistently than their predecessors.
The PA Plus series is a powerful combination of functionality and versatility. The PA Plus series can be customized with a wide range of accessories.
Standard Industrial press brakes come in a range of sizes to suit your project.
High productivity, high-performance bending, and intuitive operation all in a cost-efficient package
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.
These portable sheet followers are stronger and more cost-effective than CNC versions and can be moved quickly. The press ram movement fully controls the system and does not require operator interaction. Made in the U. S.A.
Two-position pedestal control for Press Brakes includes a footswitch and a three position footswitch. Operators can use the palm buttons in a fast approach while using the footswitch to slow down.
Hydraulic press brakes are hydraulically applied to the ram to reduce its height, rather than relying only on mechanicals. They may contain more than one cylinder, giving the operator more control over the bend. It produces a precise and configurable bend. The hydraulic press brakes are similar to mechanical presses but have some disadvantages. Hydraulic press brakes cannot exceed the rated tonnage. You may prefer mechanical press brakes if you need flexibility.
Then you will need to determine the particular characteristics to be taken into account when calculating the part bend. This includes, for example:
What goes into a Piranha presses brake? Our current models are quite new, but we have been manufacturing press brakes since 1998. We created and engineered great machines such as the single-cylinder, dual-cylinder presses that are still loved by our customers today. But the high cost of steel in U.S. fabrication was prohibitive. After we stopped producing, customers and dealers started asking us to rebuild a press brake. They liked the machine and they appreciated how well we looked after them. They loved having one location where they could purchase or receive service for any equipment they have in their shop.

An automatic lubrication machine is an air-operated and timed system that adds grease to all lubrication points, except backgauge screws. This feature is ideal for multiple shift operations. All press brakes have a standard manifold-central lubrication mechanism.
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.

A press brake is a machine that bends metal parts and sheets up 20mm thick.
The principle of Pascal's Law governs hydraulic presses. It states that pressure applied to a fluid within a fluid causes pressure changes throughout the fluid. The hydraulic press has a piston, which acts as a pump and provides a slight mechanical force to a small portion of the sample.
Rapid braking Can cause slipping or sliding if you brake too fast. Slowly brake by gently putting your foot on the pedal. You should leave enough space between you and the driver in front to ensure a generous stopping distance.
