In addition to being industry-leading in production, our machines also come equipped with intuitive operator control that takes the stress out daily operation for operators of all skill levels.

The press brake is a machine that forms lengths of sheet metal. These sheets are used for manufacturing, industrial applications, and as parts of other devices. The most common press brakes are rated based on their ability to press metal and their overall length. This is expressed in numbers, such as total PPI or pounds of pressure per square inch. You can find them in many different forms. They often come with add-ons and tooling that allow you to make highly customized parts. There are two types of press brakes: hydraulic and mechanical. We'll explain each style and break down its differences in the following sections.

High productivity, heavy-duty bending performance, and intuitive operation – all in a cost-efficient package

It is a unique technology that allows press brake operators of all skill levels to produce high quality, efficient results.

Hydraulic pressure brakes, which use hydraulics to press the ram downwards instead of relying on mechanics, apply pressure via hydraulics. You can have several cylinders and give you more control over your bend. The end result is a customizable, precise bend. However, hydraulic press brakes also have their limitations. They can't exceed the tonnage they are rated at. They may be more flexible if your project demands flexibility.

You must therefore adjust the bending angle according to the metal spring back and calculate the margin. As such, for a 90° bend, the punch must go down to 85° for example.

A press brake is a machine tool used for bending metal parts and sheets up to 20 mm thick. It is composed of a V-shaped or U-shaped die (depending on the desired bending shape) and a punch. The material to be bent is placed on the die and pressed by the punch which then bends the sheet to the selected degree.

At Gulf States Saw & Machine.Co , we carry a wide variety of hydraulic press brake models to meet the unique needs of the various businesses we serve throughout the country. Our press brakes range in size from 22 tons to 440 tons and bed lengths from 4’ to 13’ with CNC or manual controls. In addition to our standard inventory, we can accommodate custom orders for specialty length requests and tonnage. All of our press brakes include safety devices and a rear safety cage that disables the machine when opened for easy and secure maintenance. All electrical components use industry-standard parts, which are readily available in our Memphis, TN warehouse. Download a pdf for more details on each model.

Frequently Asked Questions

A hydraulic press can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $5 million depending on its capabilities and age.

Re: Use of clutch while braking if it is urgent and you need to stop quickly, then the brakes should not be applied. This will increase engine braking and help the vehicle stop faster. However, it might stall the vehicle.

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.

The press brake works by using a punch or die to bend or cut metal in a variety shapes and forms.

Your brakes may touch the ground most often due to a problem with your brake fluid. Low fluid levels or air getting into the brake line can cause a spongy pedal. Another common reason for a pedal that isn't working properly is a bad brake booster.
