ADR and ADS hydraulic brakes are just as fast as they can be. These press brakes make it the best machine in the world, with repeatability and accuracy to match. Our JMT line of press brakes has the same concept as all other JMT presses. These machines have large strokes, high openings or deep throats that allow operators to make more complicated parts. You will have more parts in your bin by the end the shift thanks to a faster setup and more operator friendly controls.

Flexible and reliable bending performance, all with the patented HEXA(r) frame – all in a cost efficient package

Our energy-efficient, all-electric BB series press brakes come specially designed with a collection of ultra-modern, performance-enhancing features that are perfect for meeting and exceeding the demanding requirements facing today's production machinery experts.

Standard Industrial presses brakes have full stroke length and tonnage all the way around the bed and ram. Standard Industrial brakes are easier to use than dual brakes that have complex hydraulic systems to balance the tonnage. Competitor press braking systems require large quantities of labor and parts. Businesses are forced to pay exorbitant amounts for parts and labor which they can only purchase from the manufacturer.

The PA Plus series offers both functionality and versatility in a single package. The PA Plus series offers a variety of accessories that can be used to create a custom solution.

Air bending uses the punch's end and the V's edges to allow sheet metal to bent. This type bending also has a springback effect. Because the bending forces are weaker, the sheet of metal will bounce backwards much like an elastic once the punch has been removed.

Consider all of the machine capabilities above combined with our industry-leading service (on average 2 1/2 service techs per salesperson), our well staffed emergency service line and a parts section that will blow your mind. We also have the tools to build your press brake. With all the tools available, our factory-trained Wilson and Wila experts are certified.

Once these characteristics have been determined, you must then calculate the tonnage required for the bending operation.

Two palm button pedestal controls with a 3-position footswitch are part of the Press Brakes. This feature allows operators to use the footswitch when they are slow and palm buttons during fast approaches.

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.

The press brake's press force is known as the tonnage. It is used to determine the maximum pressure that can applied during the bending process.

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.

This type is best used for sheet metal, as it's compatible with machines with lower capacities. Bottom bending requires more force.

These machines are fast and efficient, as they run faster, more efficiently, and with greater reliability than their predecessors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if you don't hold down the clutch pedal or keep your vehicle in neutral while driving? Explanation: If you hold the clutch pedal down or stay in neutral for too much time, your vehicle will freewheel. Coasting is a dangerous technique that reduces your vehicle's control.

Air brakes are generally more efficient than hydraulic brakes. Hydraulic brakes are unable to provide the required energy to stop heavy loads. The air brakes are safer than hydraulic brakes because they will stop the wheel from spinning.

According to the 15th-century definition of brake, it was an instrument for crushing or pounding. The term brake became synonymous with machine, a term that was derived from machines that crushed grain and plant fibers. In its simplest form, a press brake and a pressing machine are the same thing.

Material Type and Thickness Maximum Material Length. Complexity of bends. Accuracy of Bend. Per day, number of parts required. Each day, there are approximately 2,000 parts/tooling changes. Level of skill for press brake operator.

F1 brakes can be difficult because all of the driving force must be generated by the driver. There cannot be power assistance. The pedal acts almost as an on/off switch, and there is rarely any need to use gentle braking.
