You get raw power, heavy-duty bend performance, and better technology all in one cost-effective package.
Whatever your bending needs may be, the BB series will meet them all.
Hydraulic Brake PressFor industries and jobs that don’t require the detail and precision achieved with CNC controls, our manual control press brakes offer ease of use when you’re looking to keep things simple. The manual press brakes have all the same safety features of the CNC models, manual press brakes are powerful machines that are easy to get started on and great for more straightforward jobs. They include a front-operated power back-gauge and ram adjust with digital readouts and fine adjustment handwheels for both. Our models range from 22 tons to 440 tons.
Fully automated press brake solutions can be a great way to relieve some of the pressure that comes with meeting deadlines and time constraints. But how do you go about it?
This dual-drive hybrid makes short work of any project with long-term, high-speed, energy-efficient operation.
“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.”
Add to that the incredible machine capabilities mentioned above, and you will be amazed at what we can do for you. If you are looking to upgrade your press brake or make an initial investment, we can help. We have the tools you need and are factory-trained Wilson and Wila tooling experts.
The PBF Value series CNC brake presses line are designed for high performance and low price. Choose from three of the most popular models in our brake press line. Each model is equipped with the Easy Bend CNC Controller. This controller is very easy to use, with less buttons and more productivity. It makes metal bending easy at a cost you can afford.
Think Gigantically LARGE and highly intelligent press brakes with an unlimited range of tonnages, bending lengths, and loading/unloading metal material handling systems. All of our high tonnage mega press brakes utilize advanced engineered technology “box construction” frame design that gives our mega brakes the most stable brake machine body in the world. The unparalleled stability and rigidity of our large high tonnage press brakes incorporating our box construction frame design is approved by our references all around the world. Our high tonnage press brake also focuses to minimize the handling of large work pieces before, during and after the bending operation and respects the next process.
In addition to their robust, industry-leading production capabilities, our machines come equipped with intuitive operator controls that take the stress out of day-to-day operation for operators of any skill level.
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.
A Mitsubishi automatic changer (ATC), fitted with a press brake is a unique piece of equipment.
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.
Standard press brakes provide the reliability and dependability you need day in and day out. The controls are simple to use and offer a user-friendly experience. Our press brakes are capable of handling a variety of materials including soft brass and heat-treated aluminum alloys as well as stainless steel and soft aluminum.
To pump hydraulic fluid into the system, pressure is applied by hand. The pressure is transferred to another area, and the resultant force can reach 25 tons.
Your car will struggle to stop if your speed is lower than the lowest gear. This can be avoided by pressing the clutch to ensure that the engine does not depend on the transmission. Then, start braking.
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.
Hydraulic brakes are more efficient than mechanical disc brakes. This means that you will need to apply less pressure to the lever for equal braking power. This allows for better modulation.
Modern manual transmissions can be used to skip gears while going up or lower. You can, for example, change the gears when you accelerate. However, 3rd may be slower due to low engine revs.
