Searching for the perfect blend of serious bending power and cost-efficient operation that doesn’t sacrifice quality or output?
This type bending is most common for sheet metal workers as it is compatible with machines with smaller capacities.
You are looking for the perfect combination of serious bend power and cost-efficient operation with no compromises on quality or output.
Day in and day out, Standard press brakes deliver the dependability and reliability your operation demands. Easy-to-use controls offer an unparalleled user-friendly approach. Our press brakes can handle a wide range of materials, including soft brass, heat-treated aluminum alloys, stainless steel, soft aluminum and chrome molybdenum.
All of these outstanding machine capabilities are combined with industry-recognized service (we average 2 and 1/2 service technicians for every salesperson), a well-staffed emergency number, and a parts division that will blow you away. If your initial investment involves tooling up your presses brake, we also have that covered. We are Wila and Wilson certified tooling professionals with the tools that you need.
For almost every metal fabrication shop, press brakes are essential. Although they are one the most valuable and sought-after pieces of machinery in a shop's arsenal, they are often misunderstood even by professionals. We have created this simple guide for laymen to help you understand press brakes.
Dual Cylinder Press Brake Adjustment
Ranging from entry-level hydraulic all the way up to heavy-duty, fully customized solutions that cover any of your requirements for sheet metal forming, these press brakes represent the apex of pounds-to-performance for industrial bending.
The ADR and the ADS hydraulic press brake is as fast as it is accurate. With accuracy numbers like +- .0004 and repeatability to match, these press brakes take a back seat to no machine made anywhere. As with all the press brakes in the JMT lineup, our concept of “large strokes, high openings and deep throats is ever present in these machines, which allow the operators to make parts with larger flanges and make the removal of those parts much easier for the operator to manage. With easier quicker setups, a more operator friendly control, a press that moves at breakneck speed, the end result is more parts in the bin by the end of the shift with a higher piece to piece overall quality.
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.
Before choosing your press brake, you must first know the type of metal you want to bend (stainless steel, 16 gauge mild steel, etc.)
Our manual control presses brakes can be used in jobs and industries that do not require precision or detail like CNC controls. While the manual press brakes feature the same safety features as the CNC models, they are still powerful and easy to use for simple jobs. These include a front-operated powerback-gauge and adjustable ram with digital readouts. There are also fine adjustment handwheels that allow for both. Our models are available in a range of weights, from 22 tons up to 440 tons.
It is powered by a double-axis back gauge and can perform automated bending steps calculation. These servo-electric press brakes are very precise in bending and eco-friendly. They also require minimal maintenance.
No matter your bending needs, the BB Series is there to help.
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.
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.

Semi-trucks use compressed air for their brakes instead of hydraulic fluid. Semi-trucks have a lot of weight so they need air to brake.
Crowning is the method by which press brakes correct for deflections in both the upper beam or lower bed when pressure applies. There are different methods, depending on the model and make of the press brake.
