4-way Press Brake Dies

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.

The possibilities are unlimited with our top end precision press brakes that feature, better controls, more axes, faster setups, faster part production, large daylight openings and large working areas. Features include a stable and fast AC servo motor-driven back gauge system and outboard mounted long ram guides (which provide stability while allowing full length between the frames for acute angle bending).

Your workflow can be optimized to reduce costs, time and effort. You can prevent downtime and product issues by being proactive. Shops can be fine-tuned to meet customer needs. Whatever your challenge, there is an automation solution.

Before choosing your press brake, you must first know the type of metal you want to bend (stainless steel, 16 gauge mild steel, etc.)

Backed by Standard Industrial's reputation for durability and repeatability, our press brake machines offer important advantages over other models.

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.

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.

Standard Industrial Press Brakes will work for any size facility. Standard Industrial presses brakes are perfect for small, cost-conscious businesses that work in three shifts daily. Standard Press brakes also suit product manufacturers that need reliable, low-maintenance machines, with minimal downtime.

Standard Industrial machines come with a 5-year parts guarantee. This warranty includes unlimited lifetime telephone support, a 5-year limited labor warranty and a 1-year CNC/PLC warranty.

Do you require a machine capable of processing and bending steel sheets? Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. offers single and dual cylinder Y1+Y2 hydraulic press brakes that can bend plates and metal sheets quickly and easily. They are strong and can easily be relied on by fabricators for different forms of bending. Hydraulic Press brakes are easy to operate. It basically means that the material being used must be attached to the bed while it descends.

Hydraulic press brakes make heavy-duty work possible and can be tailored to address the most varied customer forming needs, including long length, tandem and high tonnage.

Our Servo Hydraulic Pressbrakes are powerful, efficient metal benders that consume as little as 66% power in standby mode and as much energy during the bending cycle. The servo brakes' ram movement is controlled by AC Servo "electrical" motors which drive hydraulic oil "on request" using variable speed pumps. Our highly advanced technology allows for a much lower cost per piece. It synchronizes hydraulic oil with electric power and electronics when needed. It is hard to find a more quiet, energy-efficient and accurate press brake.

Automation

Most press brakes work in the middle of the press. Standard Industrial press brakes can be used to apply substantial force at the ends of the brake when they are not designed for center loading.

Two methods can press brakes bend steel. The first is bottom bending, where the ram presses the metal to its bottom. Bottom bending allows for precise bends, and less reliance on the machine's press brake. Each tool has its limitations. They are designed to create a particular bend and you will need a different one for each angle. The bottom of the die and the ram are separated by an air pocket when air bending occurs. This allows for the operator to account for any material spring back. These types of dies need to only be changed if there is excessive material thickness. Air bending has a drawback. Because the thickness of the material can affect the accuracy, the ram needs changing accordingly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hydraulic presses can be used for forging and clinching, moulding blanking, punching as well as metal forming operations like deep drawing and blanking. Hydraulic presses can also be used for rubber pad forming and powder compacting.

Hydraulic brake failures are most common due to either loss of hydraulic pressure, or brake fade on steep hills.

Re: Use of clutch while braking if it is urgent and you need to stop quickly, then the brakes should not be applied. This will increase engine braking and help the vehicle stop faster. However, it might stall the vehicle.

The press brake is, in reality, one of the most difficult machines to master in the trade. Every sheet metal operation needs to bend.

With about 70 lbs, the average person can push on the brake pedal. You can apply the brake pedal with about 70 lbs. To stop a moving vehicle disc brakes require 800-1200 psi at their calipers. All parts of the system amplify the force you apply to the pedal.
