The use of press brakes is common in sheet metal and production plants in many areas, including automotive and aeronautic.
The possibilities are unlimited with our top end precision press brakes that feature, better controls, more axes, faster setups, faster part production, large daylight openings and large working areas. Features include a stable and fast AC servo motor-driven back gauge system and outboard mounted long ram guides (which provide stability while allowing full length between the frames for acute angle bending).
The press brake's press force is known as the tonnage. It is used to determine the maximum pressure that can applied during the bending process.
Flexible, reliable bending performance with the patented HEXA C(r) frame - all within a cost-efficient package
Standard currently makes the largest selection of hydraulic press-brakes on the market. We have 20 models in our ADR 5 Axis CNC Hydraulic Press Brake Series. They are small, up to 4 feet in length, and large, up to 20 feet in bending length. 7 different tonnages are available, ranging from 66 tons to 440 tonnes. Our ADS series, a premium and more advanced model, is available in 32 models. They can bend metal lengths from 6' 8" to 26' 5". Our ADS series machines have 13 different tonnages and can bend up to 3,300 tons. The PBF series is also available for customers that require a standard press brake. Another side of the coin are the advanced AD Servo Brakes that feature a hybrid hydraulic configuration with ball screws for quiet operation and energy efficiency. Standard is bringing to market the FBS-series, which is short for flexible bending solutions press brakes. FBS series brakes have a high tonnage and can be customized to fit customer's exact requirements. The brakes can also run tandem or trio press brakes.
Bottom bending involves bending the metal sheet using a punch with a force that is 3 to 5 times stronger than air bending. This decreases or prevents the springback effect commonly associated with airbending. This begins with air bending and continues at the bottom with cold forging.
Warning: Incorrect tonnage (too low or too high) can cause damage to your press brake and the part you are bent. Refer to the operating manual for details on how to calculate the tonnage of the press brake.
Whatever your bending needs, our BH series is here to make sure that power, precision, and profit are never far away.
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.
This unique technology makes it possible for press brake operators with all levels of skill to achieve efficient and quality results.
The BH series hybrid press brakes prove that not all hybrid presses are created equally. The patented dual-drive design of these third-generation machines allows you to get the best of both hydraulic bending and electric bending. This is even more than other hydraulic, hybrid, or electric pulley-style presses.
Before choosing a press brake, you need to first identify the type of metal that you wish to bend (stainless, 16-gauge mild steel, etc.).
Standard is supported daily by a growing team of industry professionals that includes product specialists, service engineers, and sales consultants. JMT has a highly skilled parts and tooling division to ensure your machines run at their best.
Tonnage is the force that the press brake applies to the material. It determines how much pressure can be applied to the punch during bending.
Brake Pads May be Damaged by WD40 WD40 is not an oil cleaner. It is an oil, and should not be used on a friction surface. The friction surface of brake pads is called WD40. If you spray WD40 on them, they will need to be replaced or cleaned.
The principle of Pascal's Law governs hydraulic presses. It states that pressure applied to a fluid within a fluid causes pressure changes throughout the fluid. The hydraulic press has a piston, which acts as a pump and provides a slight mechanical force to a small portion of the sample.
The press brake is usually narrow and long, so large sheets of sheet metal can easily be bent by it. The press brake bends sheet steel by placing a punch on sheet metal placed on top of a tool. A press brake can bend the metal several times until it reaches the desired shape.
Diamonds don't last forever. They can become lost, can be fried in an oven, or can be crushed to smithereens by a hydraulic press.
There are two types of primary press brakes: electronic and hydraulic. Hydraulic presses brakes are the most common and oldest type of press brakes. Hydraulic press brakes are capable of handling the most difficult workloads.
