A press brake, a machine used to bend and cut metal sheets upto 20 mm in thickness, is an example of a machine tool. The press brake is made up of a U-shaped (or V-shaped) die and a punch. The material to bent is placed on a die and pressed with the punch.
Our BH series has the right product for you, whatever your bending needs. Power, precision, profit, and profit are all within reach.
Then you will need to determine the particular characteristics to be taken into account when calculating the part bend. This includes, for example:
Finally, there is a press brake solution for heavy duty that is both user-friendly and loveable.
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.
High productivity, heavy-duty bending performance, and intuitive operation – all in a cost-efficient package
This unique technology makes it possible for press brake operators with all levels of skill to achieve efficient and quality results.
A fully automated press brake solution can reduce the stress on your production lines, and help you to keep your mind and your business in check. But how can this be done?
Standard currently produces the largest range of hydraulic press brakes. Our ADR 5 axis CNC hydraulic press brake series offers 20 models. They range from small press brakes that are 4 feet long to larger press brakes with bending lengths of up to 20 feet. There are 7 different tonnages, ranging in weight from 66 to 443. The ADS series, which is more advanced and comes with 14 CNC axis, has 32 models. It can bend metal from 6 feet 8 inches to 26 feet 5 inches. The ADS series machines offer top-end precision and powerful metal bending capabilities in 13 tonnages that can handle up to 3,300 tonnes. We also offer the PBF series to customers who need a simple press brake. The sophisticated AD Servo brakes, which have a combination hydraulic configuration and ball screws, are quiet and energy efficient. Standard also brings to market the FBS Series, which stands for "flexible bend solutions" press brakes. FBS series brakes can be made to high-tonnage specifications to meet customer requirements. They can run tandem or trio press brakes and have material automation and handling options.
In the beginning, press brakes could only bend with one axis. They were less versatile than modern machines which have twelve or more programmable movements. Modern press brakes can be extremely precise and provide visual representations of final results to aid operators. Modern computers also make it much easier to set up. The computers are able to quickly calculate the best settings based on the materials being used and its dimensions. These calculations used to have to be done manually back in the day.
This game-changing tool changer offers real-time info that will help any press brake operator perform more effectively.
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.
This margin should also be calculated taking into consideration other factors such as the thickness and length of your punch blade, the fold length, or the opening of your V.
Our energy-efficient, all-electric BB series press brakes come specially designed with a collection of ultra-modern, performance-enhancing features that are perfect for meeting and exceeding the demanding requirements facing today's production machinery experts.
The press brake is, in reality, one of the most difficult machines to master in the trade. Every sheet metal operation needs to bend.
Experts estimate that hydraulic brakes require twice as much electrical energy to operate an electric press brake. The hydraulic motors, pumps and oil that hydraulic press brakes use to operate the machine keep it running, even when it's not in use.
The CNC Press Brake is fast to set up and has a repeatability of +/–0.0004 inches. This will allow you to reduce the time it takes to make parts.
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.
You shouldn't use the clutch to turn corners. The transmission mechanism is freed by pressing the clutch, which can affect the vehicle's stability. If your vehicle is in an imbalanced position while you turn, it can lose traction. Depending on the speed, the vehicle may tip over.
