Fast and efficient, these machines run faster, smarter, and even more reliably than their predecessors.
No matter what your bending requirements, the BB series can help you. Power, precision, profit, and profit are all within reach.
The motor inside a mechanical press brake operates via a motor. This motor spins an enormous flywheel at high speeds. The machine operator controls the flywheel via a clutch. A clutch then sets the other parts in motion and bends the metal. The mechanical press brake, with its electronic controls, is much simpler and makes maintenance and operation simple. A mechanical press brake can handle tonnages that are two to three times larger than their intrinsic rating due to its design. The downside to using mechanical press brakes, however, is that the machine's ram must complete its full cycle before it can be reversed. The operator can make mistakes, which could lead to safety concerns. A potential danger is that the press brake may become locked if it travels too far.
We also have a range of Press Brakes designed on the hydraulic control system. Its bending capacity is capable of handling thick work-pieces. As a result of its tonnage capacity, it works efficiently on any thick metal material. This range is built in either Single Cylinder or Dual Cylinder Y1+Y2 formats and requires no complex operation to function. Materials that can be processed on our Press Brakes include steel, brass, metal sheets, and aluminum alloys.
This method gives high precision in angular measurements. This method can be used on sheet metal up to 2 mm thick.
This dual-drive hybrid makes short work of any project with long-term, high-speed, energy-efficient operation.
You get raw power, heavy-duty bend performance, and better technology all in one cost-effective package.
After determining these characteristics, calculate the tonnage needed for the bending operation.
The CNC control hydraulic pressing brakes are able to handle any project with precision, speed and volume. These machines can handle the most difficult jobs with perfect details. You can also store programs on removable USB drives. Other important features include the following:
It runs on a double axis back gauge system and is capable of automated bending step calculation and also bending lengths that are full between the side frames. These servo-electric Press Brakes are big on precision bending, eco-friendly, easy to use and require the least maintenance cost.
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.
Mechanical press brakes operate via a motor inside the device. This motor spins a large flywheel at high speeds. The machine operator controls the flywheel through a clutch, which then sets the rest of the parts into motion to bend the metal. The mechanical press brake is much more straightforward, especially regarding its electronics, making maintenance and operation easy. They can also handle tonnages two to three times higher than their inherent rating, due to the nature of the mechanisms. The primary disadvantage of using mechanical press brakes is that the ram inside the machine must complete a full cycle when engaged and cannot be reversed. This creates some safety concerns if the operator makes a mistake and sets some limitations on the machine. One possible hazard is the potential for the press brake to become locked if the ram travels too far.

Hydraulic press brakes are hydraulically applied to the ram to reduce its height, rather than relying only on mechanicals. They may contain more than one cylinder, giving the operator more control over the bend. It produces a precise and configurable bend. The hydraulic press brakes are similar to mechanical presses but have some disadvantages. Hydraulic press brakes cannot exceed the rated tonnage. You may prefer mechanical press brakes if you need flexibility.
Hydraulic disc brakes have superior performance and efficiency due to the lack of a mechanical cable. The fluid system works better than a steel cable, which can be more susceptible to wear and more vulnerable to the elements.
When you travel at a decent speed, the first brake is used. If you need to stop your car or your car's speed reaches the lowest gear, you will need to use your brakes to prevent it from stalling.
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.
Three main CNC-controlled axes are located at the top of a modern CNC press brake. These include the control over the bending and back gauges, as well as the control of various productivity options.
Crowning is the method by which press brakes correct for deflections in both the upper beam or lower bed when pressure applies. There are different methods, depending on the model and make of the press brake.
