Press brakes are a necessity to almost any metal fabrication shop. Unfortunately, despite being one of the most important and desired pieces of machinery in a shop, they’re still misunderstood—even by professionals. To help you better understand press brakes, we put together this short, layman’s-level guide.
No matter what kind of bending you need, our BH series will be there to meet your needs.
Our CNC control hydraulic press brakes offer users the ability to tackle any project with precision, speed, and volume. These machines can handle the most demanding jobs with impeccable details. The capability to use a removable USB drive means that additional program storage is virtually limitless. Other key features include:
Unique technology that delivers high-quality, efficient results to all press brake operators.
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.
High productivity, heavy-duty bent performance, and intuitive operations all in one package.
The use of press brakes is common in sheet metal and production plants in many areas, including automotive and aeronautic.
Our press brake machines are backed by Standard Industrial's reputation as a durable and repeatable machine. This gives them an advantage over other models.
Standard currently produces the largest range of hydraulic press brakes. Our ADR 5 axis CNC hydraulic press brake series offers 20 models. They range from small press brakes that are 4 feet long to larger press brakes with bending lengths of up to 20 feet. There are 7 different tonnages, ranging in weight from 66 to 443. The ADS series, which is more advanced and comes with 14 CNC axis, has 32 models. It can bend metal from 6 feet 8 inches to 26 feet 5 inches. The ADS series machines offer top-end precision and powerful metal bending capabilities in 13 tonnages that can handle up to 3,300 tonnes. We also offer the PBF series to customers who need a simple press brake. The sophisticated AD Servo brakes, which have a combination hydraulic configuration and ball screws, are quiet and energy efficient. Standard also brings to market the FBS Series, which stands for "flexible bend solutions" press brakes. FBS series brakes can be made to high-tonnage specifications to meet customer requirements. They can run tandem or trio press brakes and have material automation and handling options.
Our press brake models offer significant advantages over other models thanks to Standard Industrial’s reputation for reliability and repeatability.
You need a machine that is reliable and strong to process and bend metal sheets. Gulf States Saw & Machine Co.'s Single Cylinder Y1+Y2 HydraulicPressbrakes are capable of bending plates and metal sheets with minimal effort. Fabricators can depend on them for a variety of forms of bending. Hydraulic Press Brakes operate very easily. All that is required is that the material to be worked on is secured to the bed, and then the ram descends onto it.
This type of bend is used most frequently for sheet metalworking because it can be used with machines with reduced capacities. It is not as strong as bottom bending, which is more difficult.
Tonnage refers to the press force applied by the brake. It is the pressure that can apply to the punch during the bending operation.
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.
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.

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.
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.
If your brake pedal sinks to the floor, it could be a problem in the brake master cylinder. Either way, it is important to perform a thorough assessment. Once the problem is diagnosed, you can proceed with the repair.
