Our manual control brakes are ideal for jobs or industries that don’t require precise and detailed CNC controls. Manual press brakes come with all the same safety features that CNC models have. These powerful machines are easy to start and great for more simple jobs. They have a front-operated ram adjust and power back-gauge with digital readouts. Both can also be fine adjusted by handwheels. Our models range in weight from 22 tons to 425 tons.
A press brake fitted with a Mitsubishi automatic tool changer (ATC) stands out in all kinds of ways.
Hydraulic Press Brake JackGulf States Saw & Machine offers precision and detail in computer-controlled measurements as well as simple bends. Co offers two great options in hydraulic press brakes. They come in a variety of sizes and are affordable. Call our team to receive a quote and a machine.
“The accuracy and repeatability are outstanding. I had one job running for five days straight—there was no difference from the first part bent on day one to the last part bent on day five. All of this plus the reduced setup time translates into higher profitability.”
Searching for the perfect blend of serious bending power and cost-efficient operation that doesn’t sacrifice quality or output?
It’s been said that "the little guys sometimes punch well above their weight class." Such is the case with our small 4 foot press brake. This compact bender comes standard with a CNC controlled X axis back gauge, tangs that accept euro or american style tooling, LED rear working light, two sliding front sheet supports with a linear rail, and a dual palm/foot station with a selector switch. You for sure are going to want to check out this new powerful, fast and accurate small press brake that packs a bend "punch" like no other.

Ranging from entry-level hydraulic all the way up to heavy-duty, fully customized solutions that cover any of your requirements for sheet metal forming, these press brakes represent the apex of pounds-to-performance for industrial bending.
Machines that press brake sheet metal are used to form long sheets. These sheets are commonly used in manufacturing, for industrial applications, or to make components for other devices. Most press brakes have a rating based on their pressability and their bending length. This information is expressed as numbers (e.g., total pressure per inch, or pounds of pressurized material per inch). They are available in many sizes and can often be equipped with additional tools and add-ons to make custom components. The two main types of presses brakes that you will find are hydraulic and mechanical. In the following sections, we will explain the main features and distinguish between the two types.
Next, you'll need to determine which characteristics must be considered when calculating the part bend. These characteristics include:
The options list could go on and on. We will only list the most important ones. Safety is paramount. We have included the AKASLC world-class laser safety system as a top choice. It is widely considered the best press brake safety system. For combination machines, light curtain sick C 4000. Additional axis for up to 14. Extended travel back gauge of up to 39 inches, with safety light curtain. Motorized height adjustment sheet follower. Delem (DA69T), Cybelec (12S,15S) and 3D with the PC1200 are updated cnc controls. Quick release clamping or hydraulic clamping. Wila or Wilson mechanical, or hydraulic clamping. There are many tooling options available from the "who's Who" of press brake tools. Systeme for positioning bottom tools, thickness measuring systems, and offline software to support Profile-W or VBend.
The CNC technology system-the Computerized Numeric Control, is used to create our single and dual cylinder Hydraulic Press Brakes. Our advanced dual bending machines work solely electrically because they are run on Servo Electric systems. They don't need hydraulic oiling and require minimal energy.
An early generation of press brakes used one axis to bend. They were much less powerful than modern machines with twelve or more programable axes. Modern press brakes are precise and generate graphical representations for the operator. Also, the setup time for newer computers has been dramatically reduced. They are capable of quickly calculating optimal settings based the material being used, its dimensions, as well as the desired results. These calculations used be done manually in the past.
We also offer a variety of Press Brakes that are hydraulically controlled. The bending power of the brake is strong enough to handle large work-pieces. Because of its large tonnage, it can handle any thick metal material. This range is available in Single Cylinder and Dual Cylinder Y1+Y2 formats. It requires minimal operation. You can use our Press Brakes to process metals such as steel, brass, metal sheets and aluminum alloys.
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.
