A one-of-a-kind technology that makes efficient, quality results available to press brake operators of all skill levels.
A press brake is a machine that forms sheets of metal in long lengths. These sheets are often used in manufacturing or industrial applications. Most press brakes can be rated according to their metal pressing capacity and overall bending length. These numbers are expressed in numbers (e.g. total PPI, or pounds per inch). They can be found in many shapes and come with tools and accessories that allow for the creation of highly customized components. Two main types of press brakes are available: hydraulic and mechanical. We will discuss the differences and highlight the key features of each style in the sections that follow.
Hydraulic Press Brake Harbor FreightStandard is supported by an ever expanding team of industry professionals, which includes experienced application engineers, product specialists, sales consultants and skilled service engineers. JMT also has a resourceful parts and tooling department to keep your machines working at optimal performance at all times.
Finally, there is a press brake solution for heavy duty that is both user-friendly and loveable.
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.
Warning: incorrect tonnage (too high or low) can damage your press brake or the part you are bending. To calculate the tonnage of your press brake, refer to the operating manual or a tonnage table.
Think gigantically large, highly intelligent press brakes. They can be loaded/unloaded with metal material handling systems and have an endless range of tonnages and bending lengths. Our high-tonnage mega press brakes use advanced engineered technology "box structure" frame design which gives them the most stable machine body. Referees from around the globe have praised our high-tonnage press brakes for their unmatched stability and rigidity. The high tonnage press brake focuses on handling large work pieces prior to, during and following the bending operation. It also respects the next process.
Although there are many options available, this list is not exhaustive. If you don’t see what you are looking for, please ask. Safety is paramount. The AKASLC, a world-class laser safety device, is at the top of our options. It is considered to be one of the best presses brakes. Light curtain Sick C4000 for combination machines. Additional axis to accommodate upto 14. With safety light curtain, extended travel back gauge can reach 39 inches Motorized height adjustment on sheet follower. Delem's DA69T or Cybelec's (10S,12S.15S,15S,3D with PC1200) are the latest cnc control controllers. Quick release clamping. Positioning systems at the bottom, thickness measurement, offline software for ProfileW and V-Bend.
These machines have industry-leading production capacities and are equipped with intuitive operator controls, which take the stress out for any operator.
A range of Press Brakes are also available that use the hydraulic control system. Its high bending strength allows it to handle thick workpieces. It can work with any thickness of metal due to its high tonnage. The range can be configured in Single Cylinder or Dual Cylinder formats Y1+Y2 and does not require complex operation. Our Press Brakes can process steel, brass and metal sheets as well as aluminum alloys.
Whatever your bending needs, our BH series is here to make sure that power, precision, and profit are never far away.
Press brakes are a necessity to almost any metal fabrication shop. Unfortunately, despite being one of the most important and desired pieces of machinery in a shop, they’re still misunderstood—even by professionals. To help you better understand press brakes, we put together this short, layman’s-level guide.
The PA Plus series brings together functionality and versatility into one powerful package. The PA Plus series allows for the use of a wide range accessories, allowing for a completely customizable solution.
You get raw power, heavy-duty bend performance, and better technology all in one cost-effective package.
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.
Hydraulic presses brakes can be used to bend or fold metal by pressing it into dies. These presses can be used for both sheet metal work and continuous production. These presses can handle difficult industrial production jobs, from single-cycle operations to automated components.
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.
Rapid braking Can cause slipping or sliding if you brake too fast. Slowly brake by gently putting your foot on the pedal. You should leave enough space between you and the driver in front to ensure a generous stopping distance.
A press brake is a machine that bends metal parts and sheets up 20mm thick.
