Once these characteristics have been determined, you must then calculate the tonnage required for the bending operation.

As part of our Perfect Machine Process, every Standard hydraulic press brake is rigorously inspected in our Rockford, Illinois, facility so that it’s ready for seamless installation in your shop.

These machines have industry-leading production capacities and are equipped with intuitive operator controls, which take the stress out for any operator.

Gulf States Saw & Machine. Co. has a wide range of hydraulic press brake models that can be used to serve the diverse needs of all the businesses we service. Our press brakes are available in sizes from 22 tons up to 440 tonnes and can have beds lengths of 4' to 13'. We are able to accommodate special length requests and specific tonnage in addition to the standard stock. For easy and safe maintenance, all of our press brakes have safety devices. All electrical components are manufactured using industry-standard parts which can be easily found in our Memphis warehouse. Get more information about each model by downloading a pdf.

8 Ft Hydraulic Press Brake

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.

Air bending uses the punch's end and the V's edges to allow sheet metal to bent. This type bending also has a springback effect. Because the bending forces are weaker, the sheet of metal will bounce backwards much like an elastic once the punch has been removed.

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.

Many fields use press brakes, including sheet metal work and production lines in sheet metal.

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.

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.

Press brakes are used in sheet metal work and production plants in many fields, such as the automotive and aeronautic sectors.

It offers raw power, heavy-duty performance in bending, and improved technology, all in a cost-effective package.

ADR hydraulic press brake and ADS hydraulic pressure brake are equally fast as they are accurate. These press brakes have a superior accuracy of +-.0004 and a repeatability that is second to none. Our concept of "large strokes", high openings, deep throats and high pressure is present in all JMT press presses. This allows the operators to create parts with larger flanges. It also makes it much simpler to remove those parts. Operators will find it easier to setup and control the press at a quicker pace. The end result is more parts in their bins by the end, which means a higher level of quality.

Day in and day out, Standard press brakes deliver the dependability and reliability your operation demands. Easy-to-use controls offer an unparalleled user-friendly approach. Our press brakes can handle a wide range of materials, including soft brass, heat-treated aluminum alloys, stainless steel, soft aluminum and chrome molybdenum.

Frequently Asked Questions

Rare earth magnets can withstand pressures up to 9,000 lbs per square inch, but not for what you might think. The Internet has seen hydraulic presses crush things for a while.

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.

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

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.

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.
