This dual-drive hybrid makes short work of any project with long-term, high-speed, energy-efficient operation.
Air bending is done by bending sheet metal at the ends of the punch and 2 edges of V. This type of bend also creates a spring effect in the work piece. Because the bending force in this case is weaker, the metal sheet can spring backwards as if it were elastic.
For almost every metal fabrication shop, press brakes are essential. Although they are one the most valuable and sought-after pieces of machinery in a shop's arsenal, they are often misunderstood even by professionals. We have created this simple guide for laymen to help you understand press brakes.
Flexible and reliable bending performance thanks to the patented HEXA®-C(r), frame - all in a compact package.

No matter what your bending requirements, the BH series can help you make sure power, precision and profit are always within reach.
Dual Master Cylinder Brake PedalHydraulic press braking is ideal for heavy-duty jobs and can easily be customized to handle the most varied customer forms, such as long lengths, tandems, high tonnage, and everything else in between.
Whatever your bending needs, our BB series is here to make sure that power, precision, and profit are never far away.
The motor within a mechanical press brake works by turning a large flywheel. The motor spins a large flywheel at high speed. The flywheel is controlled by the machine operator through a clutch. This sets the other parts in motion to bend metal. The mechanical press brake is simpler, especially in terms of its electronics. This makes maintenance and operation much easier. The mechanical press brakes can handle tons up to three times their intrinsic rating. Mechanical press brakes have one major drawback: the ram must go through a complete cycle once it is engaged. This cannot be reversed. This poses safety risks if an operator makes a mistake or places limitations on the machine. The possibility that the press brake could become locked if too much ram travel is one potential danger.
Hydraulic press brakes make heavy-duty work possible and can be tailored to address the most varied customer forming needs, including long length, tandem and high tonnage.
It runs on a double axis back gauge system and is capable of automated bending step calculation and also bending lengths that are full between the side frames. These servo-electric Press Brakes are big on precision bending, eco-friendly, easy to use and require the least maintenance cost.
Our top-end precision press brakes offer a wide range of features, including better controls, more parts production, larger daylight openings, and greater work areas. The features include an AC servo motor-driven, stable back gauge system with long ram guides that are mounted on the outside of the frame. These guides provide stability and allow for full length between frames to allow for acute angle bending.
Real-time information from this game-changing tool changer lets any press brake operator perform better than their best.
Once you have established these characteristics, then you need to calculate how much weight is required for the bending operation.
Poor hydraulic performance can be caused by particulate contamination, water contamination and clogged filters.
The bending length of the press brake should be slightly longer than the sheets you wish to bend. The press brake can become damaged or destroyed if it isn't the right size.
Semi-trucks use compressed air for their brakes instead of hydraulic fluid. Semi-trucks have a lot of weight so they need air to brake.
A hydraulic press crushed a worker to death in an industrial accident. Two workers were placing materials under hydraulic presses. An online video of the incident shows this. While the victim was fixing the materials, the worker controlling the machine turned the engine on.
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.
