Oil Quality

For 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?

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.

Press brakes were limited to making bends using one axis. They were more limited than modern machines that can program 12 or more movement axes. Modern press brakes have high precision and produce graphical representations to aid the operator. Setup time is significantly reduced with newer computers. They can quickly calculate the optimal settings according to materials, dimensions, and the desired result. These calculations were once done manually.

Do you need a strong and reliable machine for processing and bending metal sheets? At Gulf States Saw & Machine Co., our Single Cylinder and Dual Cylinder Y1+Y2 Hydraulic Press Brakes are capable of bending metal sheets and plates without hassles. They are strong and can be relied upon by fabricators for various form bending. The operation of our Hydraulic Press Brakes is quite simple as it basically requires that the material being worked on is fastened on the bed while the ram descends on it.

Hydraulic Cylinder Press Brakes

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.”

Our Single Cylinder or Dual Cylinder Hydraulic Press Brakes use the CNC technology system-the Computerized Numeric Control. This is the latest technological advancement for Press Brake designs. Our dual bending machines operate solely on electricity because they are run by Servo Electric. They don't require hydraulic oiling. Their energy consumption and maintenance are minimal.

The next step is to determine the characteristics that will be used to calculate the part bend. For example:

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.

24 Hydraulic Press Brake

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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.

Hydraulic press machines have two main benefits: They reduce weight and allow for material conversation. Lower cost molds and a reduced number of parts. Production and initial costs are low. Capacity to handle high tonnage. It is safer than Mechanical presses. Overload protection built-in Less noise. More items.

Re: Use of clutch while braking if it is urgent and you need to stop quickly, then the brakes should not be applied. This will increase engine braking and help the vehicle stop faster. However, it might stall the vehicle.

The press brake is, in reality, one of the most difficult machines to master in the trade. Every sheet metal operation needs to bend.
