Early generations of press brakes only had one axis of motion to make bends. They were much more limited compared to modern machines with 12 or more programmable axes of movement. Modern press brakes are highly precise and create graphical representations of the end result to aid the operator. Newer computers have dramatically reduced the setup time as well. They’re able to quickly calculate optimal settings based on materials being used, its dimensions, and the desired results. These calculations used to be done by hand, back in the day.
Standard Industrial was the only company that offers a 5-year warranty on its parts, according to a recent study. Standard Industrial Corporation offers an optional extended 7-year warranty on Metal Fabrication Equipment.
Therefore, adjust the bending angle to match the metal spring back and calculate your margin. The punch should be adjusted to 90 degrees for a 90 degree bend.
Warning: Incorrect Tonnage (too high/low) could cause damage to your presses brake or the part that you are bending. The operating manual and a tonnage chart will help you calculate the tonnage for your press brake.
Do you need a reliable machine to bend or process metal sheets and do you want it to be strong? Gulf States Saw & Machine Co. has both Single Cylinder Y1+Y2 HydraulicPressbrakes that are capable of bending steel plates and sheets. Fabricators can trust them for all forms of bending. Hydraulic Pressbrakes are simple to operate.
Are you searching for the perfect balance of serious bending power with cost-efficient operation that doesn’t sacrifice quality and output?
Standard has all types of tooling available, including American, European and Four-way American precision dies. Standard can also provide custom-made tooling for press brakes or press applications. The press brake does not come standard with any tooling. For all your tooling needs, contact us today. Made in the U.S.A.
Press brakes are used in sheet metal work and production plants in many fields, such as the automotive and aeronautic sectors.
What's the secret to a Piranha Press Brake? Our current models are new, but we've been making press brakes since 1998. We've designed and built some amazing machines, including the single-cylinder or dual-cylinder press brakes, that our customers still love today. However, the cost of steel fabrication in the U. S. was prohibitive. After the end of production, customers and dealers asked us to build another press brake. They were happy with our machine and the way we treated them. They appreciated having one place to purchase or get service on any of the equipment they used in their shop.
Our Servo Hydraulic Press brakes are efficient and powerful metal benders. They consume up to 66% less power during standby and use 44% less energy during the bending process. Our servo brakes are powered by AC Servo electric motors that drive hydraulic oil "on-demand" through variable speed pumps. The servo press brake has a lower cost per unit because it uses our advanced technology. This allows us to synchronize the powerful forces of electric power, hydraulics and electronics only when they are needed. There is no quieter, more efficient, or more precise press brake available.
A press brake, a machine used to bend and cut metal sheets upto 20 mm in thickness, is an example of a machine tool. The press brake is made up of a U-shaped (or V-shaped) die and a punch. The material to bent is placed on a die and pressed with the punch.
Standard press brakes offer the reliability and dependability your operation needs day after day. Simple controls make it easy to use. Our press brakes have the ability to handle a wide range materials including soft brass, heat treated aluminum alloys, stainless and soft aluminum, as well as chrome molybdenum.
This method gives high precision in angular measurements. This method can be used on sheet metal up to 2 mm thick.
It is finally possible now to find a heavy-duty, press brake solution which is both simple and easy to use.
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.
The most common reason for a soft/spongy pedal is air in the brake lines. Breathing in air can cause the brake pedal to feel soft or spongy. If your brakes feel spongy or soft, it is time to flush or change the brake fluid.

Hydraulic brakes use brake fluid within sealed tubing between the lever and caliper. This fluid is usually either DOT fluid, or mineral oil/fluid. Both fluids can cause contamination over time so it is important to flush the system and have fluid changed periodically.
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.
