The next step is to determine the characteristics that will be used to calculate the part bend. For example:

Mechanical press brakes work by a motor contained within the device. This motor spins the large flywheel at high speeds. The machine operator controls this flywheel using a clutch. After that, the rest of the components are in motion to bend the steel. The mechanical presses brake is easier to operate and maintain, particularly in regards to the electronics. Due to their nature, the mechanical press brakes are able to handle tons two to three-times higher than their inherent rating. The main disadvantage to mechanical press brakes is the fact that the ram within the machine must complete a full circle when it's engaged. It cannot be reversed. This presents safety concerns in the event that the operator makes mistakes and places restrictions on the machine. There is a possibility that the brakes could be locked if the ram travels too fast.

This margin should also be calculated taking into consideration other factors such as the thickness and length of your punch blade, the fold length, or the opening of your V.

There are also the BH series "hybrid", which proves once again that not all hybrid press braking systems are created equal. These machines are the third generation and feature a dual-drive design that combines hydraulic and electric bending. They offer superior productivity, precision and reliability and energy savings.

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.

It's finally possible to find a high-quality, durable press brake solution that is both simple to use, and easy to love.

Our manual control presses brakes can be used in jobs and industries that do not require precision or detail like CNC controls. While the manual press brakes feature the same safety features as the CNC models, they are still powerful and easy to use for simple jobs. These include a front-operated powerback-gauge and adjustable ram with digital readouts. There are also fine adjustment handwheels that allow for both. Our models are available in a range of weights, from 22 tons up to 440 tons.

It has been said, "The little guys sometimes punch well beyond their weight class." Our 4 foot small press brake proves this. This compact bender features a CNC controlled back gauge on the X axis, tangs for euro or american style toolsing, an LED rear light, two sliding front supports with a line rail and a dual station with a palm/foot switch. This compact, precise small press brake is sure to impress.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

The CNC Press Brake is fast to set up and has a repeatability of +/–0.0004 inches. This will allow you to reduce the time it takes to make parts.

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.

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.

The panel bender is more efficient than a traditional press brake due to its tooling advantages. It also has a faster, more consistent, and repeatable process. Both can benefit from CNC (computer numerical control), but a press brake needs manual manipulation of the sheet metal, bend to bend.
