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.
It is finally possible now to find a heavy-duty, press brake solution which is both simple and easy to use.
This method gives high precision in angular measurements. This method can be used on sheet metal up to 2 mm thick.
The tonnage of a Hydraulic Press Brake, also known as the Press Capacity, is what determines how large a work-piece can be processed by the Press Brake. It is also the unit of force measurement that a press brake can deliver. This is what bends work pieces into desired/specific degrees. Our Press Brakes can handle tonnages from 30 to 3000 tons, while the bed lengths start at 4 feet and go up to nearly 30 feet.
High productivity, high-performance bending, and intuitive operation all in a cost-efficient package
It's obvious that press brakes can be a very useful tool for industrial-grade metalworkers. Do you need a press brake for your business? Gulf States Saw & Machine. Co offers everything you need to make your business a success.
Optimize your workflow to reduce time, money and human effort. You can avoid costly downtime and product defect. You can fine-tune your shop to meet changing needs with unrivalled programmability, functionality and cloud-based machine insight. There is an automation solution for every challenge.
The sheet metal can be bent by air bending when the punch ends and the V edges are connected. However, this type of bending has a spring back result. When the punch is removed, the bending force is lower and the metal sheet springs backwards just like elastic.
Manage and optimize your workflow to save time, money, and human effort. Avoid and actively prevent costly downtime and product defects. Fine-tune your shop to meet the needs of the day with unmatched programmability, functionality, and real-time, cloud-based machine insights. Whatever the challenge, there’s an automation solution that can help.
In bottom bending, the punch curves the metal sheet with a high force (3 to 5 times greater than air bending) which reduces or even prevents the spring back effect generally associated with air bending. The process begins with air bending then continues with cold forging carried out at the bottom of the V.
Backed by Standard Industrial's reputation for durability and repeatability, our press brake machines offer important advantages over other models.
Do you need a strong and reliable machine for processing and bending metal sheets? At Gulf States Saw & Machine Co., our Single Cylinder and Dual Cylinder Y1+Y2 Hydraulic Press Brakes are capable of bending metal sheets and plates without hassles. They are strong and can be relied upon by fabricators for various form bending. The operation of our Hydraulic Press Brakes is quite simple as it basically requires that the material being worked on is fastened on the bed while the ram descends on it.
The bending angle must be adjusted according to the metal springback and the margin must also be calculated. For example, a 90deg bend requires that the punch be lowered to 85deg.
A Mitsubishi automatic tool changer (ATC), fitted to a press brake, stands out in many ways.
The disadvantages of pneumatic and hydraulic brakes They can be more expensive than a mechanical brake. The fluid used should be compatible to the brake material. Brake failure could result from brake fluid leakage. Maintenance and construction are not as easy as mechanical brakes.
Brake discs are designed to last for at least 50,000 miles, although there are many factors that can affect their lifespan. You may get as many as 80,000 miles from one set if you take care of them and drive responsibly.
4. Choose the correct upper and lower dies for your press brake toolings based on the sheet metal hardness, thickness, length, and other factors. The slot width of the lower den should be between 5-6 times and 6-8 times the thickness of a metal plate. The sheet should have a longer length.
Poor hydraulic performance can be caused by particulate contamination, water contamination and clogged filters.
Hydraulic disc brakes have the advantage of self-adjusting as they wear down. The caliper's design will allow it to retract a predetermined distance from the rotor, regardless of how worn the pads are. This is amazing, and you don't need to adjust your brakes like with mechanical pads.
