You will then need to determine what characteristics are to be considered when calculating a part bend. You can use the following examples:
Standard press brakes provide the reliability and dependability you need day in and day out. The controls are simple to use and offer a user-friendly experience. Our press brakes are capable of handling a variety of materials including soft brass and heat-treated aluminum alloys as well as stainless steel and soft aluminum.
The PA Plus series offers both functionality and versatility in a single package. The PA Plus series offers a variety of accessories that can be used to create a custom solution.
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.
Your workflow can be optimized to reduce costs, time and effort. You can prevent downtime and product issues by being proactive. Shops can be fine-tuned to meet customer needs. Whatever your challenge, there is an automation solution.
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?
Press brakes are machines that form lengths of sheet metal. These sheets are typically used in manufacturing, industrial applications, or as components for other devices. Most press brakes are rated by their capacity to press metal and their overall bending length; this is expressed in numbers (e.g., total PPI, or pounds of pressure per inch). They come in many forms and often are equipped with tooling and add-ons designed to create highly customized components. Press brakes fall into two main categories: mechanical and hydraulic. In the next sections, we’ll break down the difference and explain the prominent features of each style.
Our energy-efficient, all-electric BB series press brakes come specially designed with a collection of ultra-modern, performance-enhancing features that are perfect for meeting and exceeding the demanding requirements facing today’s production machinery experts.
Many fields use press brakes, including sheet metal work and production lines in sheet metal.
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.
Combine those outstanding machine capabilities listed above and then consider this; with our industry renowned service (we average 2 ½ service technicians to every salesperson), our well-staffed emergency service line, and a parts department that would blow your mind. If your initial investment includes tooling up your press brake, we have you covered there as well. We are factory trained and certified Wila and Wilson tooling experts with the tools on the shelf.
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.
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.
No matter what your bending requirements, the BB series can help you. Power, precision, profit, and profit are all within reach.
Rapid braking Can cause slipping or sliding if you brake too fast. Slowly brake by gently putting your foot on the pedal. You should leave enough space between you and the driver in front to ensure a generous stopping distance.
