Our Servo Hydraulic Press Brakes can bend metal with up to 66% less power consumption at stand-by and 44% less energy use during the bending cycles. Our servo braking system is powered by AC Servo motors. These motors drive hydraulic oil on demand in conjunction with variable speed pumps. Our advanced technology ensures that our servo presses have a significantly lower price per part. We use only the most powerful electronic, electric and hydraulic power when it is needed. You won't find any quieter, less energy-intensive or more accurate press brake.
Our Single Cylinder and Dual Cylinder Hydraulic Press Brakes are designed using the CNC technology system-the Computerized Numeric Control which is the latest technological advancement in Press Brake designs and utilizes a blast system that removes rust from the work-piece surface. Because it is run on Servo Electric systems, our range of advanced dual bending machines function purely electrically. They require no form of hydraulic oiling and energy consumption is minimal.
The next step is to determine the characteristics that will be used to calculate the part bend. For example:
Once you have established these characteristics, then you need to calculate how much weight is required for the bending operation.
Our popular precision performance to value-oriented CNC hydraulic press brakes have exceptionally large strokes, daylights, and throat depths to allow cost effective production of simple to complex shapes that require large dimensions for ease of handling and removal. An easy to use cnc control reduces the required operator skill level. Precision accuracy tolerances of .ooo4 and unmatched repeat-ability-you simply won't find a higher quality press brake for the price!
The press brake is a must-have for any metal fabrication shop. Despite being the most crucial piece of machinery in a shop and highly valued, many people don't understand them. We've created this guide for you to better understand the press brakes.
Our machines are built with industry-leading production capabilities and feature intuitive operator controls that reduce stress for all skill levels.
There are two methods that press brakes can bend steel. The first, or bottom bending, is when the ram presses metal to the bottom. Bottom bending can produce precise bends and is less dependent on the press brake. The problem is that each tool is designed for a specific type of bend. You will need to purchase a brand new tool for each angle. Air bending creates an air pocket between the die's bottom and the ram. This allows the operator flexibility in accommodating any spring back provided by the material. These types are only necessary to be replaced if the material is too thick. The drawback of air bending is its inability to accurately bend the material. This means that the ram will need to be changed accordingly.

We also stock a range Press Brakes that can be used with hydraulic control systems. The hydraulic control system can bend large workpieces. It is able to work efficiently with thick metal materials due to its huge tonnage. The range can operate in Single Cylinder, Dual Cylinder Y1+Y2 format and doesn't require any complicated operations. Our Press Brakes are capable of processing steel, brass or metal sheets.

You must therefore adjust the bending angle according to the metal spring back and calculate the margin. As such, for a 90° bend, the punch must go down to 85° for example.
The press force of the presses brake is called the tonnage. It controls the amount of pressure that the punch can exert during the bending operation.
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.
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.
With about 70 lbs, the average person can push on the brake pedal. You can apply the brake pedal with about 70 lbs. To stop a moving vehicle disc brakes require 800-1200 psi at their calipers. All parts of the system amplify the force you apply to the pedal.
Air brakes can be described as three types of braking systems: emergency brake, parking brake and service brake. The service brake system applies the brakes and then releases them when you press the brake pedal while driving.
