Hydraulic Press Brake Machine

Hydraulic Press Brake Attachment

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.

Warning: incorrect tonnage, which is too high or low, can cause damage or irreparable injury to your press brake. Refer to the manual or a table to calculate the weight of your press brake.

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.

Standard currently manufactures the most extensive range of hydraulic brakes. Our ADR5 axis hydraulic press brake series includes 20 models. It ranges from small pressbrakes that measure 4 feet in length to large pressbrakes up to 20-foot in length. We also offer 7 different tonnages from 66 to440 tons. ADS series with more advanced features is available with upto 14 CNC-axis. 32 models are available with metal bending lengths ranging from 6 foot 8 inches to 26 foot 5 inch. Our ADS Series machines are high-end precision metal benders with powerful capacities up to 3.300 tons. These two most popular series of press brakes are also offered by us. We also offer the PBF range for those who require a more basic press brake. There is also the AD Servo brakes which feature a combination of hydraulic and ball screw configurations for quiet operation and energy-efficiency. Standard has also introduced the FBS series of press brakes. This stands for the flexible bending solutions. FBS series brakes for high tonnage are made to order according to customer specifications. You can have tandem, trio or even triple press brakes. Also, you have the option to use material automation and handling tools of any description.

Hydraulic Press Press Brake

ADR and ADS hydraulic presses brakes are both fast and accurate. These press brakes can match any machine, with accuracy figures of +-.004 and repeatability. Like all JMT press brakes, the concept of large strokes with high openings and deep throats are present in these machines. This allows operators to make parts that have larger flanges and makes it much easier to remove them. A press that is faster, easier to set up, has a better operator interface, and moves at a breakneck pace will result in more parts in the bin at the end of each shift, with higher overall quality.

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.

Standard is supported by a team of industry professionals which includes service engineers, sales consultants, product specialists and experienced application engineers. JMT has a dedicated parts and tooling section to keep your machines running at peak performance.

A motor in the device drives mechanical press brakes. The large flywheel spins at high speeds by the motor. The flywheel is controlled through a clutch by the operator. Once the clutch has been activated, the remaining parts are set into motion to bend and bend the metal. The mechanical press brake has an easier operation, thanks to its electronic components. Because of their mechanical design, they can handle tonnages up to three times greater than their inherent rating. However, mechanical press brakes are not able to be reversed. The ram inside the machine must complete the full cycle after it engages. This can cause safety issues if the operator is not careful and may also limit the machine's capabilities. If the ram travels far enough, the press brake can become locked.

In air bending, the end of the punch and the 2 edges of the V allow the sheet metal to be bent. But this type of bending means there is a spring back effect of the work piece. As the bending force is weaker, the metal sheet springs backwards like an elastic when the punch is removed.

We offer press brakes that can help streamline your workflow, increase production speeds, optimize energy consumption and reduce operating costs. Our press brakes range from 40- to 2,000-ton capacities with anywhere between 3 and 11 axes, featuring tool layout, collision check, bend reports, back gauge editing and DiamondSoft® software with auto tooling.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Hydraulic brakes use brake fluid within sealed tubing between the lever and caliper. This fluid is usually either DOT fluid, or mineral oil/fluid. Both fluids can cause contamination over time so it is important to flush the system and have fluid changed periodically.

The panel bender is more efficient than a traditional press brake due to its tooling advantages. It also has a faster, more consistent, and repeatable process. Both can benefit from CNC (computer numerical control), but a press brake needs manual manipulation of the sheet metal, bend to bend.

Diamonds don't last forever. They can become lost, can be fried in an oven, or can be crushed to smithereens by a hydraulic press.

Hydraulic disc brakes have superior performance and efficiency due to the lack of a mechanical cable. The fluid system works better than a steel cable, which can be more susceptible to wear and more vulnerable to the elements.
